For the record I'd prefer the ad clarified that it isn't from Bitfountain too, but space was rather limited and the target link does make it clear exactly what is being offered.

Wasn't your ad TAT hmm well I'll wait for a confirmation to credit it to someone
As it is right now it is in an official ad network for just-dice so thought it was an approved banner

I must say I don't like the ad. The reason lies in its call for investments in the company, rather than promoting hardware sales. As there are no new shares to be offered, no one is doing the company a favor by buying the shares (except for the share price fluctuations).

It might also be considered to be financial / investment / trading advice. Also if this is not official, the creator is (mis)using somebody else's name.

It also makes asicminer look fishy, or have you ever seen a company advertise its stock rather than its product? Remember: in its current form it is not obvious if this is an official ad or fan made!

Anyway, please excuse any typos, I am on my phone.

Yeah, I think "ASICMINER from TAT" would have been better.

I asked dooglus to use the ad on that page that was the banner from just-dice ad stream not sure who made it though or if it is a fan-made/official banner
Thought it was neat so put it up
Sorry if I made it sound like I made it maybe some day if I'm bored I'll make one too Smiley
Saved the evidence he-he but will credit the maker if someone knows (from comments sounds like it was TAT confirmed pr unofficial)

"ASICMINER by TAT, Invest today" Could give the impression that TAT runs ASICMINER, but I do see your point

I don't like how the ad doesn't mention it's not official.

True, but it may be confusing for first time bitcoin investors to have "Invest in my asicminer passthrough today!" on there instead

Seeing as how TaT has historically been willing to advertise, and the fact that the add takes you to the havelock PT (by TaT).  It's my assumption that the add is from TaT, not Friedcat.

But still, pretty cool.

I love that even though there are no official webpages or other information that the fans of ASICMINER create a whole bunch of services (PTs, websites that count the hashrate, even advertisement ... ) That's great stuff and props to all the people involved!

- SmiGuel, TAT, RuneDks, DeadTerra, burnside and others, big ups to you!

Hey that looks great!! I might be tempted to write "$100 Million" explicitly instead of all those 0000000's ...... you know easily people get confused by trailing zeros  Wink

So many people are buying bulk USB miners for resale... Canary doing his JIT sales... now I imagine BTC guild purchased a good amount to handle quick shipments as well.  Canary alone sold over 500 sofar, it will be interesting to see how many sold in the rest of the world...

Div prediction? Lets shoot for .04 again this week... I am feeling lucky!

it's a question if the payments will be processed in time to reach the dividend. So if there were no USB sales counted in it I would guess 0.015 dividend, if the first bit wave of USB miners will make it in time I'm guessing 0.035 per share, exciting times ahead!

Also when the new cheaper blades come out it will be a blast! also the hashrate seems to be coming up from the poor performance in the last day. It's interesting that this has not lowered the price of shares as I thought it would, it seems like the investors really do have faith in friedcat as I do Smiley

Friedcat said "more than 4000 USBs sold" a couple weeks back. So a conservative 5000 USBs (or 5000 BTC) tacked on with the mining divs = less than 0.04/share

I have just voted on the questions for friedcat. Now I'm offering my opinion out loud - while we all love the high dividends, and have no doubt that the management team have excelled themselves so far, I think it's time that AM increased its transparency. Things like a quarterly earnings report, annual balance sheets and so forth.

Berkshire Hathaway is a good example of a successful company with a no-frills website that contains all the information an investor needs:

http://www.berkshirehathaway.com

I think offering the same level of information to shareholders is a worthwhile and realistic goal for AM.

Berkshire Hathaway is also worth nearly $192 billion dollars.

I would like AM to be worth $192 billion one day.

If AM was worth that each share would have to be worth $480,000,-

We can dream, can't we? Smiley

There's lots of markets, and the price point is much more reasonable now for resellers. Just depends on how many bulk deals has managed to do round the globe this last week. Only time (= friedcat) will know on the volume, plus how many will be included in this week's dividend.

How many USB miners got sold the first time round? What was the profit per unit?
