Did i miss a reason why AM-Shares are priced so low at the moment? The divs are high as always so i dont see why...

I think the primary reason people have been discussing, that investors are cashing out of ASICMINER to invest in new startups (unwisely IMHO), is likely one of the primary causes of the low share price. Others likely include the lower dividends recently, the lack of information about new hardware despite expectations of such, and a lack of updates from friedcat. Remember, until fairly recently friedcat was providing weekly updates every thursday like clockwork, and that has stopped without explanation.

The fact that news about new ASICMINER hardware is imminent, competition is unlikely to seriously compete any time soon, and that friedcat is working just as hard as every in spite of the lack of official updates leads me to believe that it is in fact an fantastic time to purcahse ASICMINER shares.   Wink

I must agree watching it at 3.6 even I think that's a steal Smiley

Yes, one of them will be a winner, so just dump $10k into each IPO and let er' buck!  Sadly, this results in a scammers paradise.  It's a win-lose situation  Undecided  This is why I'd rather get into the early ones rather than the later ones.. and maybe this is why I chose Activemining as the main part of my portfolio..
I'm still invested in ASICminer though, but we're depending on maintenance of network % rather than growth of network % *yawn*


Win lose situations make it complex one delivers the rest don't is not exactly a good case.
But what matters I guess will be who can get what and how fast can they do, its starting to look like a arms hashing race

Anyways since it is competitor news
Labcoin seems to be having some devs coming online soon to talk and answer some questions

UPDATE:

After just talking to Sam Noi I can now reveal that the Project founder Fabrizio Tatti and one of the chip developers will be available on the forum shortly (later tonight or possibly in the morning) to answer questions reg. Design, status, Gen 1 chips etc.

This should give investors plenty of opportunity to ask questions and also stay up to date with the development.

I say soon since nearly 12 hours have passed XD

With all these mining companies coming up, petahashes (PH/s) is now the "norm". Friedcat now has the go ahead to start prepping the exahashes (EH/s), without worry of the upcoming total network hashrate.  Cool


With all these mining companies I agree one of them is bound to deliver Wink
Exahashes as if processing more data than the worlds supercomputers was not enough

So if the only reason that AM price is low, is due to noise from other opportunities, then it must be a good time to buy. At least if you are buying on fundamentals.

expect a further drop due to icedrill

anyone know what FAB AM uses? TSMC? and how will the latest avalon rumors, if true, affect AM going forward?

have they begun development on smaller chips yet?

They use TSMC.

Are you sure? I could not find a source for that.
The only thing I could find was in an old avalon status update, but that sounds like friedcat is not using TSMC.

I apologize if this has been answered; what steps will be taking place in China, and what will be done elsewhere after shipping and customs clearance? Specifically, I would like to know about packaging, assembly, and self-mining.
For the first generation of products, all steps have been taking place and will happen in China. This including chips production, PCB production, slicing & packaging, assembly, and deploying, in different places though. For example, while the production is in where the foundries are, we have more freedom to choose a place with very inexpensive power source to do self-mining.

There will be no dividends from labcoin and btcgarden, people will sell them and buy AM shares.

Maybe people have labcoin, btcgarden AND AM shares :p

People are selling AM shares cause they need to coin to purchase all the other securities that have been IPOing on the exchanges these past couple of weeks.


Agreed 100%...

People are flitting over to the latest offering hoping it will be another big increase.
The new offerings are stagnating in price, investors are getting stuck in dead ends.
This will inevitably end in a sale at a loss once their attention span has expired.
