ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It

[JordanL]

@ Maciek: I assume you've send a message to asicminerblades A gmail.com with the info like described here? (and not a PM)

Yes I did. I guess I just have to wait. I just thought that somebody here was ordering some 12gh/s Blades recently and could tell me how long the waiting time is

Typically I have waited ~48 hours for a response for my blade orders. They have always been shipped in less than 12 hours from the time my payment was made. However, I recently waited about 4 days for a share transfer, which is about 2-4x what I've seen in the past, so that is reason for me to believe they have been even more busy than usual recently. I would bet that they will get back to you within another day or two.

If ASICMINER can hold a 25% hashing share, then the average weekly income (in BTC per share) would be 0.01575 BTC/share.

Disregarding revenue from hardware sales, if we annualize just mining returns over 52 weeks,
then one ASICMINER share should return 0.819 BTC which yields incredible annual returns even at high share prices:
2.5BTC : 32.8%
3.0BTC : 27.3%
3.5BTC : 23.4%
4.0BTC : 20.5%
5.0BTC : 16.4%
10.0BTC : 8.2%

Obviously, I have not included operating expenses such as electricity, R&D, new equipment, nor have I included the income from sales of mining hardware. For this period in ASIC rollout, revenues from mining hardware sales will far outweigh operations and development costs.

Honestly, I realize that the people who were early investors in ASICMINER have made out so good that late comers may feel they have missed the boat on ASICMINER. However, in reality, a 10% annual return on investment is a fantastic dividend, which means buying into ASICMINER will continue to be a very good investment so long as they can keep up the hashrate. IMO shares of ASICMINER are still massively undervalued. There simply isn't another Security out there that grows your BTC's quite as effectively as ASICMINER. Personally, I am dumbfounded as to why people aren't more desperate to be holding ASICMINER shares.

I was also thinking about the argument of MPoE-PR about the divs a company gives degenerate its share price a little. of course I disagree that this is affecting ASICMINER shares with the same magnitude that it would with companies exposed to more friction against fiat. But also thought, Wouldn't that also mean that as I receive more dividends my loses because of a future share price is lessened?

For example if I bought 1 share for 2.5BTC then for ten consecutive weeks I received 0.025TC as dividends, The share price falling to 2.25BTC is still "Not a loss".

Well to be technical depends on the company
Berkshire
But I like a healthy dividend

[Mastergerund]

As somebody pointed out in Jutarul's auction thread, total return = shares*appreciation + dividends.

So if you have positive dividends, you could have slight negative appreciation (declining share price) and still have a positive return.

There is actually a dividend effect in the stock markets, where a stock price will decline somewhat on the ex-dividend date. This is the most pronounced when sizable cash or stock dividends are paid.

What you are really saying is 'I am too poor and/or too cheap and/or too scared to buy AM hardware.  I am jealous of those who have more money than I do and envy, to the point of resentment, their unquestionably gutsy decision to take a risk.  Instead of being direct and honest about my mere personal opinion, I'll dress it up as some fancy kind of Economic Fact with a fig leaf of ROI to hide my naked butthurt.'

Nice.

Transactions out of the mining wallet sighted:

https://blockchain.info/address/1HtUGfbDcMzTeHWx2Dbgnhc6kYnj1Hp24i?offset=0&filter=0

7442BTC in 2 transactions, or about 0.018605BTC per share. That's just the mining wallet, btw. The destination address is the same as that used last week.

Coins from BTCGuild must be getting pretty small by now and won't contribute much.

I'm gonna stick my neck out and estimate 0.032BTC as this week's dividend.

Thanks for posting
I'll join you in that neck sticking at around that range
Google doc estimated 0.01554 on the mining side surprisingly above average
Unless I read it wrong

Because the wallet was left with 1100 coins last week

Thanks for explaining that will need to look at the mining wallet next time as well + Doc

Anyone a guess for the dividends?

My quick guess: 0.03514 BTC/share

I'm guessing the dividend will be lower, because the USB sales were in the last dividend and I don't think that there will be so many blade sales in this dividend, so my vote is around 2.5 BTC per 100 shares

[tkone]

0.035 would be absolutely amazing! that would help sky rocket the share price! wow!

[VJain]

I'm guessing 0.0314159... a very yummy number.

[Ashitank]

That will be cool , Friedcat for president Banners out time !

[Pierre]

I'm getting excited!

[SmiGueL]

Ok I shouldn't have 'guessed' anything

Now everyone is disappointed when the divs are lower
Last guess: 0.036275

Even with a small part of that divs I'm happy because I'm sure he'll invest them good
