Shares owned by btc-tc went up by 20k last week. Or am I mistaken?

That just means share holders just transferred their shares to exchanges for increased liquidity, there has been no overall increase in total share amount. There would be a huge announcement from the big man himself if there were to be any (i.e. share splitting).

~210k

Bitfountain, as a collective whole, holds about ~240k shares. Investors hold the remaining 160k shares.

Could TAT shares just be pegged to 1/100  the price of PT shares?  I think theres alot of arbitrage going on between the prices of the two causing extra market volatility.  If the aim is for them simply to be used as a way to re-invest dividends then it would be simpler.  It just seems illogical that at times 100 TAT shares can cost more than 1 PT share when they only pay 95% of the PT dividend.
The more arbitrage is going on, the less the prices will differ, so if they're drifting a lot that would mean the problem is a /lack/ of arbitrage ;P

Wouldn't this question better be asked in TATs own thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/btc-tc-tatasicminer-new-micro-share-passthrough-192499

ASICMiner's Payout Address: https://blockchain.info/address/115tTroRo3B9ZDQ6ATJGDCHcNEVbjJoZnF

It appears that the largest shareholder has about 94,415 shares (received that many confirmation satoshis). So if you connect the dots...

It can also be a big private investor, not friedcat himself.

Pegging the shares would not be smart IMO, both PT have different terms... fees... etc that influence the value.  What is wrong with arbitrage?  As the markets get bigger there will be less volatility, that and once the big holders continue to split up their holdings more.

Does someone remember the price friedcat claimed would be needed to bring 1TH of hashinpower online? Was it 1TH for $10000?

Update

Online Hashes (theoretical): 24TH/s. Struggling at current 22TH/s in average due to maintenance and troubleshooting (mainly PSU and internal LAN hardware). We are fixing some bottleneck while bringing new hashpower online at the same time.

Shipped Blades: 278. The sales keeps a slow but steady pace.

Shipped USB Sticks: 530. A lot more in the following week.

We are using the same transaction policy of the official Bitcoin client's default behavior.

We also finalized the decision on making the next-gen (65/55nm) chips also fit in a USB powered device so that we could make Block Erupter USB II possible, instead of integrating too many cores into one big chip.



That's really awesome. As one of asicminer shareholder, I must say that AM is doing well!

Anyone else  struggling to place asks for PT shares on btc-tc? It keeps timing out.

No action whatsoever on that security in hours, but everything else on btc-tc seems to be fine.  Likely some sort of problem there.

EDIT- Working now!

First solo block:

https://blockchain.info/tx/cba743ea1b7904c5624e0ee75f12d177ceb214c07f8e8b55ff2eb082404eb54a?show_adv=true

From now on the solo result of ASICMINER will have "Mined By ASICMiner" within the CoinBase.

This is mined in Romania. Isn't ASICMiner based in China?
The location shown on blockchain.info is based on a GeoIP lookup of the "Relayed by IP", which just says which node relayed the transaction to blockchain.info's servers. This doesn't mean that IP was the original source of the block though, just that it was the first one to relay the transaction to blockchain.info. In other words, ignore the blockchain.info location, it is basically meaningless Tongue

Thanks, but your buy is closed! Sad. The other active one is UK-based, it seems... Guess I'll wait until another US one comes along.

The UK based GB operated by A+C offers worldwide shipping, 4 days shipping to the US = about +0.143 BTC to the hardware costs. 269 already sold out of 300.

This one needs your orders...
