Hmm low divs and BTC crashing? So this means cheaper shares again? My coins are ready.

What were back on topic
And I was going to let these shenanigans go on to the next page  Wink



What's the topic? Hard to sort it from those nasty shenanigans Wink

I just pity a future investor who turns up in 6 months time doing research and has 700 pages of this to go through rather than the 376 I forced myself through.

Although I have to say, when you read "Fast-forward" style, you get a reward of a friedcat post every hour. In real-time, this thread is a lot less exciting, no disrepect intended, I'm eagerly awaiting my first real-time friedcat post  Grin

In the last hour we've had 2 blocks found, the last one was 45 mins ago. 

Hmm... won't that make the dividends take much longer than usual today?

That makes little sense. The difficulty is not adjusted once every 2 weeks, it is adjusted once every 2016 blocks. So if they "froze" the current difficulty and got tons of new board online, then the difficulty is going to rise in a day or so instead of 5, neutralizing the effect.

The difficulty increase will be a bit less, yes, but that's not worth it when you have BFL & Avalon starting to ship more, and with the lost mining power.

At the current block discovery rate, these 2016 blocks are going to take 3-4 weeks.  In the last hour we've had 2 blocks found, the last one was 45 mins ago. 

I'm not discounting your point, it would seem to be of limited value, but you have to admit that the timing feels right.

Since you insist, here's another speculative angle.

Maybe they took hashes offline because they realized they could freeze the current difficulty for a bit while they work on getting the new boards ready.

... a new company is preparing to launch quantum computers that will mine bitcoins 1000x faster than ASICs...

I just heard about this. Is it true?

I read about it on https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2516240. Internet, must be true!

It is true. It was confirmed as certain at https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2516250

i confirm i read it also its here you can see it yourself,
anyone want to sell shares link up with me while i still have some funds Smiley


This now widely-accepted news will also mean the end of Bitcoin itself, since similar quantum computers will be able to break the SHA256 algorithm. In light of this news, as an act of charity, I will purchase everyone's Bitcoins for $1 USD each.
I'll sell you my Testnet coins! You know, the quantum computers are going to be tested on testnet first.

We could also be part of a Matrix, where our bodies are harvested and grown by machines.  This is just getting ridiculous.

That's no rumour. Its fact  Grin

Personally, I believe that if anyone buy (or sells) shares based on the "idle gossip" in the days between real news is a fool. Speculation and rumours are 95% rubbish, used by people to fill the day.

If you want to buy shares in ASICMINER, look at how they have delivered consistently since the very start, in both increasing share price and dividends. Same goes for selling. Judge it on real data, not rumours.

I believe (hope?) most people are smart enough to know this. The share price is slightly down this last few days because the hashing rate is slightly down. The price will move based on what friedcat says, not when people suggest random "Doomsday scenarios" on this thread.

If that isn't the case, and share prices really do move on rumours, I just heard a new company is preparing to launch quantum computers that will mine bitcoins 1000x faster than ASICs. Can I have your shares for 0.5BTC please ? Smiley

i love how speculation helps keep the share price lower, makes it easier for me to invest more or reinvest profits Smiley
i hope this goes on for a while Smiley

well, you should be really happy after tomorrow's dividend, then.

Unless the 'large' hardware purchase theory is correct and the dividend is so huge they decided to give the blades a rest.  Wink
