FC speaks, again: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=641957.msg7181247#msg7181247

So gen 4 will, most likely, be pin-/dimension-compatible to gen 3 and developers improving on the schematics may be paid by AM! I believe this may encourage some people to further optimize the designs.
He became quite talkative these days. I like it.

FC stepping out of his cave right for summer!

quick! someone hand this man a beer!! LOL

Don't worry, we need some time for stabilization. (Especially) we don't want another bubble yet.

[arousedrhino]

yeah but honestly at this point I don't care if it crashes, I have the answers I needed so I am in no way worried about the future of AM - back to being bullish!

 Do you think we'll see 1 BTC per AM1 share this year?

Take it over to the speculation thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=235763.new#new

Is there a good summary of recent asicminer developments? I'm a long term direct shareholder and just curious what's going on. Gen3 flopped? And now we are banking on gen 4?

It's all happening now, he's back in full effect and its all business now.

Wish someone would sort Havelock out... I'd like to buy on this news. The site is constantly down and when it is up, it is very slow. It's almost becoming impossible to trade AM1 and AM100 shares.

I'd be willing to bet that they are under near constant ddos floods.  By who , no idea, but seems the norm for exchanges.

Edit: Looking to buy 10 direct AM shares, might be easier this way than through Havelock.  PM me.

For 10 shares I think you would be much better served on Havelock.  Any more then 10 and the thin liquidity on there will get you, but buying 10 now only bumps the price a bit.

On this note, has anyone done any legwork on setting up an AM PT on some 2.0 exchange?  It would be nice if someone with established trust did it... but if no one gives Havelock any competition I may end up doing it myself once I do the research on which platform to use.

Blackmailed by skiddies, nowadays its cheap to order DDoS

another point for decentralized exchanges

I wonder if Peershares would be suitable?

[bitsalame]

I wonder if NXT is more robust.

This could work via colored coins.  The difficulty would be in finding someone trustworthy enough to issue shares.  Honestly, it would be easiest if FC would issue the asset and then allow people to transfer their direct shares to colored coins.  That way there wouldn't be an additional counter-party.

counterparty is years ahead

The platform almost matters less then the person who runs it to be honest.... again.  SOMEONE should do it, someone with reputation and trust (and possibly a good number of shares to start things off with).  I have an OTC rating that is positive, a neutral rating on BCT, but really that is nothing.  Several people that post often in this thread have a more "lofty" reputation in the community then myself which is really needed for this sort of thing.

What we need a system without someone needing to be trusted.

How is that even possible though? There will always be a team developing this so called "system" so even if no one needs to manage it, there will always be a need to trust the developers

open-source

[minerpumpkin]

FC thinking about making the chips open source: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=641957.msg7194103#msg7194103

(don't panic, not in the near future  )

[maxl]

Probably they make the chips open source when gen4 is ready to ship?
