Update

The updates of the chips can be found here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annasicminer-publicly-looking-for-potential-customerspartners-for-new-chips-438359

ASICMiner is not affiliated with AntMiner in any forms of shareholding, technical sharing or business partnership.

The tapout date is pulled back to early Feburary due to further modifications for robustness and stability, but mass delivery date is still March.

Well, that was a quick reply, didn't have to hold my breath for too long Wink
Thanks for the heads up, VERY MUCH appreciated! Keep us posted, please! Smiley

Good set of questions - except Jan 31 is Chinese New Year - and continues for 10 days after that. Don't hold your breath for a reply.

A pumpkin mines 27 hours a night
Yesterday I've submitted a list of questions for friedcat to Jutarul who, hopefully, is going to forward them at the next board meeting that is supposed to take place approximately 'before the end of January'. Of course, it would be excellent to get answers to exactly those questions - which are probably the most burning ones - but before everyone gets their hopes up just too high, it may still serve friedcat as a reference point on what we'd like to know from him. I tried to distill the list to the most important questions without going into detail too much.

Questions from the shareholders to friedcat and the ASICMiner team:

  • What is the current status of the 3rd generation chips?
  • What are the estimated time frames for - respectively - producing, deploying, and selling the 3rd generation chips and hardware?
  • There seems to be a certain resemblance of BITMAIN's mining hardware to ASICMiner's. Is ASICMiner affiliated with BITMAIN in any way? If yes, how? If no, have discarded designs (e.g. 2nd generation chips) been sold, released or lost to other entities?
  • What are the reasons for the drastically reduced rate and amount of communication coming from ASICMiner over the last couple of months?
  • What is the currently anticipated long-term strategy for ASICMiner after the 3rd generation?
  • What is the status and capacity of the immersion-cooling data center, and will it house the 3rd generation hardware?

The buyers unfortunately appear to be losing big money: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1webkm/i_am_the_guy_who_got_the_first_cointerra_miner_ama/.

edit: I say 'big money', of course to them it might not be a big deal, losing 10's if not 100's of $1,000's

what is safest method to buy share ?
i no trust security exchange

In that case, you'll have to wait for someone to run an auction of direct shares. Not sure if any running at the moment. Things are a bit "turbulent" Wink

You only have to trust the security exchange (havelock) for a week or two, because you can convert the passthrough shares to "real" AM shares through a straightforward process. If you want shares soon, it might be the only way.

I would be willing to part with 10 - 15 direct shares.  PM me to work something out.

I'd be interested in getting 10-15 shares, can you pm me ?

I've had a few shares of ASICMINER on btct.co, I've entered the bitcoin address so probably friedcat now have it with amount of shares.
How can I check it? How to see amount of AM shares attached to particular bitcoin address ?
By dividing the amount of divs you got last week with last week div per share (0.00026655)?
The addres AM sends out divs is 115tTroRo3B9ZDQ6ATJGDCHcNEVbjJoZnF

No outside party trying to help with PR will get any further than I did. The communication breakdown is on AM's end.

Assuming there is any news to report...

This is the biggest worry. AM isn't even talking to TAT at the moment ....... clearly something amiss if FC refusing to talk to his biggest shareholder connection.

Why does FC keep logging in and not post anything?

Assuming TAT ever had any decent communication between him and FC. We can all agree that as investors/traders having as much info as possible would benefit us but at the same time what does it do for the company?

Well, I'll let TAT confirm whether he ever had "any decent communication with FC", but I'm pretty sure the answer is yes ....

The worry is very simple here. AM / FC have just halted all communication this last 6 weeks. The question for me isn't "what does it do for the company", the question is "what has happened to this company?" - why is FC logging in and not speaking? If he has time to log in, he has time to put up a simple post, time to reply to TAT etc.

FC not posting an official update is very different from halting all communication. Jutarul and some others said they spoke to FC some time this month and were told tape-out is still on track.

I would give FC a few more days to give us an official status update considering they might be working hard now to get shit done so they have an update to give us.

Why tell "Jutarul" and neglect telling the shareholders?

Weird.  Share price rising again to 0.5 Btc.

This might sound like an odd observation to contribute... but I hung around the Labcoin thread for a few weeks about 3 months ago, and even though it was a complete scam with no product... the share price didn't go straight to zero. It still kind of went up and down as if there were insiders who knew something... before eventually falling through the floor (but much later than I would have expected). What's the point of this story? Don't read too much into the share price movement right now (just to be clear, I am in no way suggesting that AM is anything like the Labcoin scam).
