3) What capacity of gen 3 hardware is supposed to be used for franchised mining? re 3) Depending on the capacity of our franchisees. We personally think 20P could be possible even inside China Very nice. About 10 times what I expected. Thanks for the updates as always. @klondike bitmain always advertised 0.68w/gh chip level

7) After recent crackdowns on BTC exchanges in China, is AM still unaffected and are there strategies to continue operations in case of problems? re 7) There are no crackdown on BTC exchanges. What the central bank did was to secretly prevent banks from keeping their company bank accounts without placing any public bans. It reflects the fact that the gov has still been pretending that they are neutral to Bitcoin.

Thank-you. I am very pleased with the insight you are providing. I suspected that AM would mine more extensively through franchising after the previous post stated that mining directly would be limited by current capacity of 3P. The franchising terms appear to be very favorable.

There are no general updates this time, only the replies to the questions raised and submitted by forum shareholders:
Specific Updates ================
Submitted Questions: 1) When can we expect the financial report that's supposed to coincide with the next round of dividends? re 1) May 27.
2) With the switch to selling chips, can we expect dividends to be paid out on are "more monthly" basis? re 2) Most likely yes.
3) What capacity of gen 3 hardware is supposed to be used for franchised mining? re 3) Depending on the capacity of our franchisees. We personally think 20P could be possible even inside China.
4) What are the current approximate terms of franchised mining, i.e. what does it take to become a franchisee and how are AM and the shareholders profiting from it? re 4) We have the deployment team to investigate and audit the franchisees. We prefer the original 80/20 division and the 80% are calculated as our mining income. But the cost of the device (without chips) needs to be calculated in so there will be adjustments.
5) Are there any current plans of improving the PR; maybe bi-weekly short summaries or a PR person (board member?)? Are question sets like this an option, maybe once a month? re 5) This question set can be posed more frequently. For the PR topic, it's still a to-be-solved problem.
6) Is it feasible to create a "gen 3.5" with the consumption drawbacks fixed? With the consumption issue at hand, what is the timeframe for gen 4; are there any adjustments? re 6) No "gen3.5", but there will be "gen3.1", which is exploiting the production options from the fab the minimize the consumption.
7) After recent crackdowns on BTC exchanges in China, is AM still unaffected and are there strategies to continue operations in case of problems? re 7) There are no crackdown on BTC exchanges. What the central bank did was to secretly prevent banks from keeping their company bank accounts without placing any public bans. It reflects the fact that the gov has still been pretending that they are neutral to Bitcoin.

Wow, thank you Jutarul! Thirsty for my dividends.

Thanks for the update Jutarul. I actually think you may have largely solved issue 5 already if you keep doing what you are doing ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Assuming you have at least 30 full shares... 1HtUGfbDcMzTeHWx2Dbgnhc6kYnj1Hp24i = $ 12,674.87 $ 12,674.87 / 400,000 = about 3.1cents per share. Your dividend is worth about 93 cents. I'd pay and deliver it myself, but it'd cost me $1 in postage. This thread is for intelligent discussion. Hope I didn't offend... much. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Where are money from April 850k batch? Its millions ... Maybe Friedcat is waiting for China banning Bitfountain's bank accounts so he can tell : "Sorry guys, no dividends, *they stole our money*, we must retain profits of all gen3 to cover our loss, see you next year." I saw that before in Bitcoinland and after past year nothing is able to surprise me anymore ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

Indeed (Worships the dark overlord and master who secretly knows all of AM Tradefortress XD) He better buy BTC ASAP at these low exchange rates.... I am kinda worried he would exchange $$ to BTC just before the divs. I am really bullish on BTC going up by the end of May.

Will take me a while to climb up again, But where is a will, there is a way...

Your thoughts and opinions mean exactly 0. You are in the same group as Ukyo, Danny Brewester, Mark Karpeles. ASICMINER and Friedcat have been true to their word (within a normal degree of error).
