... Where in the prospectis does it state wed divs? I looked and cannot find it. Its states that dividens from the profits will be paid to shareholders with no specificity of the day.
Back from GLBSE days: About the Company ASICMINER is a GLBSE-listed partner company of the Bitfountain IC company registered in China. After the fully issuing of ASICMINER shares, each one of ASICMINER and Bitfountain controls 50% power to make decisions and shares 50% of the total profits, but the ASICMINER investors will first get 100% of the total profits until they have their principals paid back. After the first payment, the dividends will always be paid weekly in each Wednesday of Beijing time. Thanks, is that still available in full somewhere to read?

Thanks for the update friedcat!  @ dividend whiners ^^ Don't you think friedcat has something better to do than sending a few satoshis to everyone ??.... If you really think that it HAS to be paid 'because it's in the startpost' The startpost sais: "The income, including mining income, sales via Bitcoins, and fiat income transferred to Bitcoins, are paid to ASICMINER and Bitfountain shareholders proportionally after the ASICMINER shares are paid by 0.1BTC each from the day when dividends began to be paid, when maintainance costs, labor costs, and R&D costs are taken."
So technically the wallet address coins aren't dividends, until Bitfountain decides that they aren't gonna be used for maintenance/labor/R&D.
So please stop this discussion and let's just wait for what's gonna happen in the next weeks/months.

Great to hear Friedcat it mean's we are officially in the clear for production  They are a set of test cases to make sure that the chip indeed accepts the jobs and correctly outputs the corresponding nonces.
The next step is to make a better testing environment (powering, cooling) to know the maximum hashing speed on several voltage levels. (As well as at how low voltage the chip totally stops working and how at how high it explodes)
Ignores the redundancy and says Boom Baby Explode those chips

Also friedcat probably just wanted your estimate to be REALLY off just to stick it to you.

Some other quotes of the original OP on pages 45-50 (can't say for sure, but around message 940). But yes, as some might have finally figured out, there is no promise either on the day or on the amount from mining in the new OP.

Can you please stop this fanboy shit?!
The commitment to pay weekly dividends is more than clear. It was defaulted w/o any announcement why etc.
That default would have been no problem at all if there had been a disclaimer like: -- nope, I will not explain it to you herd-following idiots again. --
I am really damn happy about the news from friedcat - as I have a bit more than your Mommy's granted pocketmoney in here.
You idiots can throw your few pocketmoney cents wherever you want, and Mommy won't know about it (she'd be happy it is not on dope).
Fact is that ASICMINER once again gave a shit about their investors (other than boardmembers). Where is the last dividend? Why was it not paid? Just explain in one sentence! No prob!
I do understand that you are all like "Hoorray, here we go to the moon with Gen3!" But if you give away your well deserved rights, you might end up with nothing.
Please grow up.

Has anyone found out whether "10% of network" is still the goal?
I'm still not certain what Rockminer changes for us.

What exactly do you want? Do you want a board member to bug FC to stop everything he is doing and manually transfer shares and pay out divs? Do you honestly care that much?

I have tried to elaborate my point to ignorant fanboys like you over and over again. I will rest my case. You will never get it, pathetic lemming. Good luck with your 5 shares.

For a self proclaimed "adult" you really need to grow up. Everyone here seems to be discussing gen3 and nobody else seems to be panicked about the skipped single block dividend. The rest of us are looking forward to 50 block dividends when gen3 is finally brought online.
