i've been trying to buy USBs for a week, the backorders everywhere (direct, btcguild, group buys) are getting really annoying. As a shareholder, I hope we can ramp up supply soon.

Try ebay Tongue

if i can't buy them, a lot of people can't. what's that mean then?

It means they were all bought by resellers who are now selling them on ebay and through other venues.

there are too many rumors floating around with the new blades.  I hope FC just jumps in here with an informative update and puts the rumors to rest.

Exactly, and also the price I mentioned above may still get adjusted to the lower because of the delay, and probably because resellers could have included shipment and/or additional fee in the price...

Oh sorry, I should stop speculating outside of the Speculation Thread Smiley

I am truly baffled with how one man can operate a business, post on the forums, answer an endless stream of questions, and fulfill tens or hundreds of share-shuffling requests every week.

I believe friedcat's not alone there.  Certainly he does'nt do all the development, maintenance, production, shipping and management, so he must only be doing public relations stuff.

Oh no, I'm speculating again Smiley

Im sorry i dont find the time anymore to read 20 or 30 pages each week in this thread so can someone tell me whats the status for hardware selling? I believe friedcat only sells erupter usb but not erupter blades now right? Whats the reason? No hardware available? And when will both products be sold again?

Can it be that friedcat doesnt do status updates anymore?

Friedcat is only selling USB eruptors now for 0.99BTC (or 0.89BTC in quantity over 1000).

The blades were expected around July 10, or even before that, now it looks like it's getting a bit delayed.  We're waiting for friedcat to open the sales any day now.  There will also be half blades alongside normal blades.  According to chinese resellers (who've been accepting preorders for some time already), full blade will be like 18BTC for 10 GH / 70 W, and half blade will be 9BTC for 5 GH / 35 W.

I heard some rumors that this new batch of blades won't be overclockable, hope they are false.

He doesnt sell the big blades right now. They are in production OR needed to increase the own hasrate.

Hm... i hope friedcat never goes the Yifu-route... to have stress on work and dont take time doing support or inform customers/shareholders. I would prefer not to guess whats going on.

In the near future its possible that big changes happen to AM. Competition comes out, Avalon chips are sent out. That means competition in hashrate, which AM can easily beat, but the hardware selling could take a big hit.

I will trump Vycid's bid and pay 0.31 per contract for 90d puts with a strike price of 3.2.

Wrote some on btct.co:

PUT #1523
expiry 80 d, 8 h, 45 m
quantity 5
strike 3.20000000
premium 0.32550000
total consideration 2.87450000

If people want more pm me or post here; it's limited how many I can write though.

I priced these as american but I don't know whether btct uses american or european. You should check if it's important to you.

Also note if the price of AM moves significantly I may amend this offer on btct.

Lol! Option writers have no balls on BTC when compared with stock exchanges.
That PUT option you wrote basically translates into give me free BTC.

Anyway best of luck Smiley.

Why don't you make a better offer then cleverclogs.

That premium is huge.. are you getting any buys?

If so that would be some pretty bearish sentiment


It's what runek offered earlier. Depends if he's still interested.

Where can I get historical price data for AM? interested in writing puts  but need at least some ide of vol.

http://www.coinflow.co/chart/ASICMINER-PT

Thanks, but I need the actual data (e.g. daily prices) as a csv or similar. Otherwise I am guessing at the vol and the option price.

Get raw data from the BTC-TC API:

Thanks
