I have just noticed that VMC doesnt accept bitcoin for purchases...hopefully this changes in the future?
Considering we're a BTC company this is alot of potential demand that cant be satisfied

Pure manipulation attempt on my part
Klondikes will be something to look forward to, definitely forgot about those...

Manipulation much?

There are still some Klondikes awaiting non-cancelled Avalon chips AFAIK... Wonder if Avalon will do anything compensatory (well, delivering would be a good start!).

Yeah, we were lucky, what did I say you? Give it time  

I was about to go to sleep, I'm so happy I refreshed the page and saw the news.

I almost forgot, thank you ffsixtynine

Delusional and projecting. Were you also frothing at the mouth as you typed that? How long did that unique insult take to come up with? Unlike you Stuart, I'm not a child or a stuck up cunt and my mum is dead so I can't tell her anything. All that insult does is tell everyone that you are a child who hasn't yet learned how to think for yourself.

I gained 5.1% more LC shares at zero cost, how many more ActM shares did you gain at zero cost? Mock my measly 5.1% increase all you want, I'm very happy with it. Why did I only make 5%? Because I didn't sell all my LC shares.

Did you think investing bitcoins was the exclusive province of clueless idiots with a silver spoon wedged tightly up their arse? Does it surprise you to find poor people like me trading and making nice profits? Does that upset you?

Seriously man, you have to be incredibly delusional to think making 130 USD in 20 minutes is something to be mocked, especially when that 130 USD is set to become 400 USD in less than a week from now.

To summarise your post:

Hey, broke arse loser, I'm considerably richer than thou and therefore better than thou. Ner-ner-ner-ner-ner!

So, let's explain how an FPGA works, first.

You have logic gates, (which compute logical functions like 'and' 'or' etc) Those logic gates can be connected to other gates by using transistors to switch on and off wires connecting them.  Those configuration transistors take up a ton of space on the die.

an eASIC 'nextreme' ASIC works like an FPGA, except they get rid of those transistors that do the linking and replace them wires that directly connect the logic units.  That saves a ton of space because you need far fewer transistors to do the same thing and it's easier to design because you just take a working FPGA and 'convert' it fairly cheaply.

Now, a full custom ASIC is designed by creating images of layers.  You start with the silicon layers with N and P doped silicon which form transistors. You literally have a vector graphics file (called a usually a GDSII file) that indicates where you want N-type silicon and where you want P-type silicon.

then, on top of that you have multiple images for multiple layers of metal and glass (silicon dioxide) The metal conducts electricity, and the glass is an insulator.  These layers form wires that connect the transistors together. If you go full custom you can do things like create transistors of different shapes and sizes that can carry different currents and operate have different switching characteristics. This gives you the highest performance possible.

Standard cell is similar to full custom, but you're using libraries of 'images' to create your circuit, rather then creating the images 'pixel by pixel' (They're actually vector files, but whatever).  So you'll have a library for an adder, or an XOR gate, shiftier, and so on - the components you need to do SHA-256  (all you need is XOR, shift, rotate and 32-bit addition).  Full custom might give you slightly better performance because you can do more 'analog' optimizations.

The biggest difference between 'nextreme' style and standardcell/custom ASICs are the fact that you can have more 'fan-in'.  So you can do things like AND(a b c d e f g)   Where as with only two inputs per gate you'd need to do multiple nested gates in order to compare all of those variables.  I'm not sure what the max fan-in is on nextreme chips (I'm sure it's under NDA), but there are some places where having larger fan in would help, like using more lanes in your ripple carry adders.


I sold Labcoin and bought ActM before the chart started to move.  I even posted a comment in this thread "why hasn't it popped more?" or something like that.

People who waited for the chart to show the big spike probably lost their money.   The phrase is "buy on the rumor, sell on the news".  But that also works if you buy on the news the second after it hits, then sell when everyone else has figured it out. It has nothing to do with the chart (other then knowing when it's too late), it's just about being quick off the blocks.

If I hadn't been looking at the thread, I would have missed it. So luck was certainly involved. I also didn't sell as much LC as I should have, I could have made a lot more, but I'm not complaining.

 
Here is a definition of this word delusional which you love to use - but don't understand:
'A delusion is a belief held with strong conviction despite superior evidence to the contrary'
lol


ANYway, we have more important things to discuss - like your 5.1%

Are you SERIOUS? My jaw hit the ground when you said you only made 5.1%!
Do you think that weeks worth of trolling in here and pumping on the LC thread was worth it for a measly 329shares? or 1 BTC.

You could have got out of your bedroom this week, and told your mom you were going to get a job at Mac D's and made that 1BTC plus change much easier than trolling on here.

I don't know Mabsark, it was just the way you described your flipping success that made me think you were.....bigtime:


AND

There is 33% between your buy and sell prices on ACtM so how the heck did you only make 5%?! lol You must have timed your buy back into LC really really badly - or only flipped a handful of shares lol.

You know what Mabsark, I used to want to put you on ignore because you were annoying but, wow you are just a little boy playing trading in his bedroom for 100bucks a week (or every 2 months more like!) profit. You are a nobody! IGNORED.  

Mid November.

I'm sorry if this has been asked before but when exactly is the expected delivery date?

In that case, I'll be sure to post more often and in more detail then. 

This is brilliant Mab!  Many thanks for sharing.  Have you got anthing else on this subject as I do love to hear your first hand accounts of your trading successes. 

I don't think I can do that every 20 minutes at all though and you have to be delusional to get that from anything I wrote. It was sort of a one off situation and I took advantage of it.

Also, I don't have 10K and I sold the last of my ActM shares for 0.0065 BTC 40 minutes after the announcement. I didn't lose anything you lunatic. I had 6460 LC shares before the announcement. I now have 6789 LC shares. That's an increase of 5.1% and I'm very happy with that.

No, it's the equivalent of making 2btc in 2 months.

That news was a long time in the coming. If mabsark thinks he can make that every 20 mins lol or even every week he is fooling himself. And if he was the 10k buying back in this morning as mentioned in the above post then he's 20% or more down. Ouch!

That's about 10btc down! Another major news release and he might loose a bit more! lolz

So you sold at .003 and want back in now?

lol you sucker.

This is the speculation thread as evidenced by the roughly 280 pages of speculation. There's simply no need for 2 speculation threads.

Please move this lovely talk to the speculation thread.

No, it's the equivalent to making 2 btc in 12 hours of trolling these forums and refreshing BTCT. 

Hey guys were not gonna be hashing until late November so your shares are basically worthless until then.

Selling now is a great idea

I consider making 2 BTC in 20 minutes to be bloody amazing. That's equivalent to 750 USD/hour - for clicking a mouse a couple of times and pressing a few keys. I don't know a single person who makes that much in a week.
