I know it annoys you to have to read this thread, but you'll find that answers to most of your questions are here if you look.
If you know, why don't u do something about it? At least I know of the existence of btctalk.. There are also people that just use bitfunder... I don't mind reading the thread.. I also don't mind reading labrat.com, I also don't mind reading news on Bitfunder.. What I do mind is that the important information is not in 1 place but spread out over different places. That is a choice and a bad one if you ask me.

There was a fee only for the October 15th dividend payment. It was per shareholder and not per share because that's what LabRat decided to do (dictator get's to make the rules).
And you think asking 1800 bucks to pay some dividends is normal? Even for a dictactor Tongue?

LabRatMining is effectively no longer available on BitFunder.  The asset is frozen and in the process of being delisted.  Trading is now only via these forums and must be coordinated with either LabRat directly or with grnbrg.

Might things be different in the future?  Maybe, but no specific plans have been announced.
We'll just have to see then I guess..

Don't get me wrong, I'm not upset (yet), I'm just suprised to see how this has been handled, and I would like to see one place with all the relevant information. Also if I'm the only one thinking it weird to pay LabRat money for just doing what he's supposed to do I guess I just have to live with it. I can't think of any good reason to charge well willing shareholders $5 for giving them what the are owned in the first place. If I want to get screwed I go to my bank :p

I don't get it.. Was a fee charged or not??

If it was why the hell so much? And indeed don't say because he worked a few hours.. I don't recall an hourly wage being part of the LabRat plan..

Also, why a fee per person and not simply a fee per share? I can understand that the true costs from dividend payment (transaction fees and such) but those should be on a per share basis not on a per person basis! If anyone should be paying fees it should be the people entering addresses in the btc address field on bitfunder.

Lastly will trading on Bitfunder be enabled again in the future? Or will LabRat move to another exchange? Why don't u just unfreeze it untill 1st of December?

There was no fee in yesterday's dividend payment.

RISE WITH RAYS FOR THE FUTURE
No more fees are being charged. This was a one time thing due to BitFunder shutting down and he had to work some unexpected extra hours. I quoted him below:
Due to what???
due to BitFunder shutting down

(p.s. they are shutting down US operations)
At the time, the payout with fee was made, was BitFunder working as normal also for US customers?

Is that still correct? You are charging us $5 per shareholder for sending dividends?

@ the moment dividends with that "fee" was paid, BitFunder was working as it was before it.(as i know)
So the straight payout was LabRats idea.

Is the current payout for everyone? Is there a fee for this payout?

Everyone who was confirmed with me, you being one of them, received divs.  8 confirms already.

NO FEES as I stated previously.  Last payout was the only one...

Hey LabRat,

Can you please post updates on bitfunder as well? I've been searching myself clueless to find info regarding the freeze and consecutive dividend payments Sad

Also I noted this on your website:

Dividends This Week

I'm going to take the asset list image from 12 noon EST today and pay out dividends based on that list manually this week.

Along with the help of an investor, I'm working on securing an automated payment system for LRM dividends, but for this week and possibly next I will have to pay out manually.  This is a task sending hundreds of transactions by hand, so unfortunately I will be charging a small fee until the system is automated.  This will be BTC0.025 per individual.  If your dividends for the week are of equal or lesser value, you will not receive dividends this week.  It appears the amount of bonds you must have in possession is ~20 to receive dividends.

This is not a permanent fixture in the LRM payout system!!!

Once automated, the only charge will be the transaction fees through the bitcoin network (generally BTC0.0005)

If you are curious as to why there were no transaction fees on bitfunder, that is due to the fact that the bitcoin never officially changed hands. The BTC stayed in their holding wallet and the numbers on the website changed.

Is that still correct? You are charging us $5 per shareholder for sending dividends?

You currently have 358 unique shareholders on Bitfunder. Are you saying you need $1790 to process dividend payments?? I really hope you forgot a 0 (or two there) otherwise I'll do it for you for a lot less (bitcoind sendmany??).

Good job on the rest though.
Cheers,

Got payment Thx was wondering where the few bitmils where coming in from Smiley

So what happens next then whats the future of LabRatMining?

Get a large quantity of hardware and keep paying out dividends this way.  I've got a few ideas on things to do to make everything easier and more fun for everybody.  Just going to take a little time to put plans into action.

Maybe we can talk as am in the process of setting a Bitcoin business up, Plus I can get hardware at good rates and no pre orders or waiting around. Maybe share ideas and come to maybe an agreement or maybe a partnership if your interested in listening to what I have to offer.

grnbrg: Can you create a thread to post offers to buy/sell bonds until the final system is implemented in the website?

Just to keep public track of the trades and to not post in this thread that.

Maybe will be better, just an idea.
