Whatever the platform is it should be one which will be available to the most people, we don't want to have the only ones knowing about the shares being us.

which is why it should be on crypto trade

I have just posted a poll regarding our trading choices.

From yesterday's posts I think we all have a good idea of what people are thinking, however given that Ken is currently having a think about the possibility of allowing us to spilt between the two options, I wanted to create a poll that will give us all a better understanding of what people are thinking which in turn may help when we come to make that one off decision.

It's a three day poll and results will be hidden until it expires. (Edit: having added an option 4 by request, and reset voting, results are now shown after people vote.  Must be a bug)

I will repost this a couple of times over the next few days to ensure maximum exposure.

Ken I understand about the shares and waiting for either CT or CC but what about our dividends?

When can we start receiving our dividends since we are still trying to figure out which route to go with the shares?

Since we can't reinvest them why not start sending them to our wallets we had listed so we can use them towards other things?

Theres a slight chance that ken ordered the foundry queue already weeks ago but the "good news in 8 weeks" sounds more like thats not the case.

What I'm going to assume, is that Ken can't badmouth eASIC or we'll be "proper fucked" and needs to work with them cordially to make sure our investment isn't just tossed to the lawyers.

As a consequence I'm going to assume that eASIC has fumbled the ball with 28nm, BUT that they did at least warn Ken of this delay and he leveraged the time to make the design more efficient. I'm also assuming that it's some clever method of pipelining and scheduling work such that one engine does not sit idle for even a clock tick waiting for other engines to finish as I believe happens in other designs.

All in all, with that and the news that the PCB team was useless, leads one to think that we've had a bit of a crap-tsunami, but seems like Ken is up on the board and surfing it.


Ken thusly retains my confidence, though of course we'd all like to micromanage the hell out of the poor bugger.

Or the RTL was never viable from the start.  We don't even know who has been doing the RTL because it sure as hell isn't one of the Slaughters.

Weekly Update 1/15/2013

Here in San Jose working with our partners to move our projects down the line.  The RTL problem has been solved and I will be releasing more information about this over the next month.  I will also over the next month be releasing the timeline on our chips as the information becomes available to us.

Another update stating you will update your updates on the next update.  And people think this is exciting?
The only piece of actual news is that the RTL still wasnt done. Thats pretty much step 1 in asic development and there is no reason this couldnt have been done 6 months ago. Development started when, back in May?

For those curious how this impacts timing, let me quote Ken from 10 months ago:

VMC is in talks with a Major Semiconductor Company which can deliver prototype/Low Volume chips to VMC in a 5-10 week time frame after the RTL code for the ASIC chip is ported to their chip and the timing on the chip has been closed.

No, I have no idea what the last part of that Kentalk sentence means either, but it does seem we are looking at least at 5-10 weeks for a handful of expensive ebeam samples. For single mask fabrication you can probably add ~2 months to that.  And thats just for the chips. Remember, HF has had chips for 6 weeks now.

Another vote for colored coins here. I am fine with waiting an extra month or even two if it means we can get colored coins working and tested.

When the BTC prices jumps/crashes I hope people stand by their decision. (I am not saying you are not). But I have seen quite a few people complain when shares were offline while the price of BTC skyrocketed.

I'm going to complain when the price gets really low.  Someone should complain the in the meantime that it's staying pretty stable and we don't have shares.
