Mining bonds are a retarded idea and only benefit the issuer.

An that's why you call them turds and not bonds.

As you probably know, those perpetual N MH/s "bonds" are similar to FRN's (Floating Rate Notes). FRN's are also called "floaters", so I am inviting you all to call all the perpetual bitcoin floaters as "Turd(s)".


I hope no one gets left with turd on their face.

Yes, that one, where he is no longer going to honor the contract he agreed to on GLBSE.

had to read that 3 times to catch the .125 in the contract vs the intended .0125. thats a pretty big difference.

Our second dividend and first full month dividend is quickly approaching.

Estimated total dividends: 75.52 to 83.00 BTC
Estimated per share dividend: 0.028495 to 0.031827 BTC


Well, this is fun. BTCMC is not going to honor the .125 BTC/mo dividend in the contract. This estimate is now wrong, and is probably going to be around 27 to 35 BTC total dividend, or less than half. Thanks Yochdog.

You are missing the point. You are paying out dividends as if you are making a profit, but the only income you have is from mining bonds and you only count the coupon payments you receive, not the free falling value of the bonds you hold; you will have to sell these bonds at some point.  in reality you probably only made significant losses so far.

Wait until the first, I don't want to spoil it for anyone who isn't in the know.

Awesome. >3% monthly is nice.

Not if it comes from holding mining bonds that may yield 7-8%, but are about to become worthless.
You can buy greek debt at >8% if you want.
Personally I would avoid those bonds and only invest in mining companies with an upgrade path to asic. Like cognitive.

Please keep trolling in this thread to a minimum.

Its not trolling its smart business to avoid the clear risk these bonds pose to returns.

Many of the bonds are sold at a fixed mh value. They are worth exactly that, no more, no less. There is only one fixed dividend bond on the market and thats BTCMC, as far as I know.

By "about to" do you mean in months or more when BFL is shipping ASICs?

Time will tell, IMO they already are ridiculously overpriced today, but its a safe bet to say they will degrade  faster than 3% per month (ie, difficulty will increase by more than 3% per month) regardless if your timeline is months or years. Difficulty has been going up by ~8% per month over the past 6 months, and thats before the mini rigs and the asics.
