Will the several thousand dollars worth of Fast-Hash sales be factored into dividends this week or the following week?
Personally I'd prefer if Ken took that sales money and put it toward the NRE to get the new chips made. This way we get the new machines to the market faster, meaning more profit in the long run.
Wrong - pay out the divs. If the market believes that putting the money back into dev costs we will rebuy the shares being issued.
WRONG - what are you people crazy ? those are not sales but
pre-orders. You cannot do a thing with those money, what if buyer requests refund are you doing to do then?
From contract:
Dividend payment
The global ActiveMining's income, including mining income, hardware sales via bitcoins, other cryptocoins and fiat transferred to bitcoins, will be paid to ActiveMining shareholders proportionally, after all manufacturing, maintenance, labor costs, R&D, growth and miscellaneous expenses are deducted. The first BTC0.0025/share dividends will only be paid to the first 10,000,000 ActiveMining shares, providing public investors a priority in getting back 100% return of their investment.
Sales of hardware are clearly mentioned in the contract, and thus will be paid out in dividends. It does not matter what you or anyone else thinks about how the money should be spent when the contract specifies what will be done.
My question was not a matter of if dividends will be paid, but when - This week or next week.
