ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It

[KarmaShark]

It's now been a little over a month since FC stated that the amount of chips we currently had would last is about a little over a month. I wonder if we did another run and gained more chips, it seems that they are being put to good use. I'm a little curious. I hope we did.

If we assume everything is going to take as long as FC suggested, 1.5 months from the June 5th announcement brings us to July 20th. If FC has decided to do another batch with the profits from the June / July batch and it takes another 1.5 months to unload that product, we are looking at early September before we will see anything. It is hard for me to envision the company staying silent until the Fall of 2014 when they were originally forecasting to start payments in Q2.


At this point in the game, you are either In or Out. The silent orderbook on HL reinforces this reality.

I don't think our Q&A request is going to corner cat to talk about anything before he's ready to.
I think we asked such specific questions, we're going to have to wait until he CAN answer those questions, before he does.
Which means that some of those questions are not ready to be answered yet.

He doesn't need to answer every question, but nothing at all? Unacceptable!

A "Nope, not sold out yet." response would be devastating.

Why? Better than nothing.

...this company has always under promised and over-delivered.

Like with gen2 performance? Like with gen3 performance? Like with blockchain based exchange? Like with maintaining 10% of network share? Like with dedicated PR person? I can continue if you want... this company is long time after "under promised and over-delivered" period.

I just hope they do it soon... 

Yeah, sure ... Hope & Believe™

How the hell do we get a guy with the title "AM Bagholder" representing the shareholders and posing questions to Friedcat? In the real world, no ceo would talk to some random rude kid, just because the kid demands it.   I thought Friedcat was extremely kind to answer his initial questions to begin with, given newsfeed.dude's obviously hostile and rude tone.   Now he feels entitled to questions answered every month - when did Friedcat agree to that part???   Anyway is it even in AM's best interest to satisfy this rude questioner's curiosity?   How old are you panicking people anyway?  So much supposition, assumption, jumping to conclusions - from bagholder and others here; is this a result of the crystal meth epidemic I've been reading so much about lately?

... In the real world, no ceo would talk to some random rude kid, just because the kid demands it...

1.  IRL CEO don't solicit money from "random rude kid[ s]."
2.  IRL CEO have PR people to field the questions of "random rude kid[ s]."

TL;DR:  This ain't IRL.

[michaelGedi]

who said this weren't the real world?

[NotLambchop]

^MichaelBliss did, and i tend to agree with him.  IRL no one would "invest" on an exchange where *ALL* the listings are trading below initial offer price.  So this gotta be Walla Walla Washington.

I don't even ...

Thank you very much for your appreciation, that I took a time for gathering and forwarding questions from all shareholders. It was my free time. Now I am "rude kid". Oh, you're so kind. I don't feel, that I am "representing the shareholders", I am just a messenger and I had a time and financial interest of doing this after friendlypumpkin told me that he doesn't have a time. "My initial questions?" that questions are from a lot of shareholders gathered in this thread, like always. Its not "my questions". There was a discussion here about appropriate time for next round of questions and general consensus was once per month, also there was a boardmeeting. "In the real world" full name of CEO is widely known between shareholders and public, here we're trusting a guy with nickname "Friedcat" with millions and you are bothering with my signature or whatever. And that "crystal meth" part ... this speaks for itself ... waste of time answering or attacking you back.

Back on topic about ASICminer.

[hdbuck]

yea.. back on topic..





patience patience..

This thread's a shitfest. Thanks for gathering the questions and presenting them. Someone's gotta do it.

[kingcrimson]

this is a very dangerous investment, you have 400,000 shares and if there is any bad news they will all try to squeeze out the tiniest door.

divs should kick in before the end of summer, if not july.

low expectations, over delivering.

This is a quote from Jutarul, quoting FC:

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.

FC does seems perfectly fine with being asked questions.

No one is allowed to be sarcastic in the bitcoin world?

Nope.  When posing questions to a CEO named "friedcat", the highest levels of decorum must be maintained.

Did anybody else receive some dust on their asicminer share dividend address?

Must be spam or someone trying to manipulate the share price.

Does Friedcat and his team draw salary or are they themselves dependent on dividends?

Thanks!
So all is still fine. 

Guys dont think about this. this is spam and it wasnt the first from this firstbits. Just an advertisement try-hard. they targeted known list for ASICMINER hodlers before.

Exactly. And if this "dusty thing" will ever happen from AM address before the divs, then don't panic. It will be for verification of direct shares ownership.

It would be great to see this happen again. Ill inclined to sell some soon this will avoid me asking someone for confirmation

Nothing like dust attacks to prove that an address belongs to someone anyways the Shareholder FAQ will hopefully appear in the next few days or so.
(Say hopefully since I have no idea either when it will come)
