Chaang-Noi: but even so, we never were going
to get 100% like we all want
Chaang-Noi: well honestly at
this point, we just have
to
trust friedat
furuknap: Chaang: yeah, but not
there's a retail
thread with "mail me
to buy" stuff.
Chaang-Noi: there are about 10 group buys and some people getting more
than 300
truffles: “My daughter waited one minute
to get on ‘It’s a Small World’ —
the other kids had
to wait 2 1/2 hours,” crowed one mom, who hired a disabled guide
through Dream
Tours Florida…
furuknap: Yeah, but
they need
to sell a hell-uva-lot of
them and so far
the only order I've seen is a few hundred from a US group buy.
Chaang-Noi: and at 2 btc each, why
the hell not :)
Chaang-Noi: that is why
they are focusing on selling and making
the usb units now
Chaang-Noi: they have
the hardware just not
the space
furuknap: It's been flat for about a week,
though, and I
think I read
they had problems finding stable space, although
that might be earlier.
Chaang-Noi: they also just sold a shit load of units cuz, people paid crazy prices for
them
furuknap: They were scheduled
to veliver 3-10
TH per week over
the past
two weeks.
furuknap: I
think
they're either pushing or have poassed 20
THs.
Chaang-Noi: AM is having problems now with not enough places
to run
their stuff,
they have it, just no internet/electric
furuknap: AM has far more
than 12
TH now.
mircea_popescu: which is a lot better
than asicminer
too, seeing how
they still don't have
the 12th promised for feb/march
furuknap: Yeah, I'll see if I can find
the reference, I have about 28
tabs up right now.
furuknap: Yeah, about 8
times 'better'
than AM chips first gen.
mircea_popescu: furuknap
the 100th people are claioming
to have bought his stuff.
mircea_popescu: there, he put a 100 btc on
the
theory
that he shows working asic doing < 1watt per ghs
optimator: 2 weeks- does everything in
the chip world in
two weeks?
furuknap: Doesn't have
to be made in Russia even if Bitfury is Russian.
The 100TH people are from Poland.
furuknap: They claim
the wafers are done and ready
tro be bumped and packaged, yes. Expected delivery in
two weeks.
Chaang-Noi: still, only chinese have made an asic, (other
than bfls 5ghs)
furuknap: No,
they're slling it as ASICs.
furuknap: I've only seen him post in Russian,
thought, and my Russian is a bit rusty.
Chaang-Noi: however if
they claimed
to get 100th with fpga and
they sold stock on it, epic
troll:)
furuknap: It is bitfury. So far as I've researched now, and excuse my noobishness if
this is obvious, he's a Russian guy
that had some incredible
talent with FPGAs and
then went on
to design ASICs.
Chaang-Noi: bitfury is a better name
than bitfurry :)
Chaang-Noi: from
the lack of people who i knew
that invested in it or
think its a good idea
furuknap: Hehe, you deduce
that from
the name?
deadweasel: < Chaang-Noi> what are
they going
to raid?
the block chain?
furuknap: I just wanted
to know how many IPO shares
they sold so I could put it into a model
to see if it's profitable.
Chaang-Noi: nall
the can do is lock up some fiat, who gives a fuck
furuknap: From what I understand,
the birst Bitfury batch is 200
TH, of which 100TH goes
to
the mine, 50
TH
to Bitfury, and
the rest
to undisclosed private investors.
Chaang-Noi: what are
they going
to raid?
the block chain?
mircea_popescu: other
than
the former's claims
to investment in
the later.
mircea_popescu: i don't
think picostocks and bitfury are actually related
truffles: well when
the DHS raids begin, maybe
the btc drama will be super intense
Chaang-Noi: i know of most legit
things before
they happen
furuknap: The people behind
the 100TH project
then...
truffles: changing
the world is a
tall order
Chaang-Noi: you dont need
to change
the world
to win, but it can help :)
furuknap: Anyone know how many shares
the 100TH people sold in
the IPO?
optimator: you know normal people don't change
the world
deadweasel: way
too much $$, and
the yeast still gets me, so I stick
to scotch and wine.
deadweasel: Red Bridge is good, but i LOVE Greens,
they make nice bier for us gluten pansies.
optimator: deadweasel: i just
tried a sorghum beer - not bad
deadweasel: don't say
that,
truffles
takes offense
to 'manic'. ;)
optimator: i
think rpietilia nailed it with
the word manic
deadweasel: optimator: I have gluten intolerance/yeast issues, so I had
to give up bier 5 years back.
Chaang-Noi: and being one of
the more loud i would say yeah
deadweasel: it sure seems like
there is a correlation between
the loudest BTC voices
the most mentally unstable.
truffles: if he's leveling
then well played
truffles: its hard
to laugh when
theyre not well
deadweasel: optimator, have you drunk
the spaten optimator?
deadweasel: I liked numismatics write of
the whole deal
truffles: there were some interesting comments in
the DHS
threads
deadweasel: gotta mine
the bitcoin, gotta mine
the forums, gotta mine
the IRC.
deadweasel: me
too, but
there are some nuggets down
there.
pgp: i find
that I mostly rely on links posted here for especially juicy stuff
pgp: way
too much noise on forums for my
tastes,
though
deadweasel: the spamcoin nonsense has lowered
the bar, which is hard for
the forums.
truffles: like ohmy shocking
the price dips
Chaang-Noi: btc is sooo much better
than hollywood
ThickAsThieves: you're replying
to "[10:44] <truffles> dont like monies now?"?
deadweasel: stay here, stay close
to
the pulse of bitcoin.
deadweasel: truffles, I
think of #assets as more of a pulse
than a clique, it's a good place
to cut
through
the bitcoin FUD as it floods up
to our necks.
furuknap: Namworld: So far,
the Swedes are
the ones
that attempts
the smallest process of 28nm. Current AM is 130nm. It will
take a long
time
to get smaller process right, as I understand it.
ThickAsThieves: he did make it clear
that new ventures, unrelated
to mining, would not be wrapped under
the current asset
ThickAsThieves: is
that AM makes so much money from
the shares
they already hold
ThickAsThieves: "About
the argument of dividend payments, our view is
that we will distribute
the net income after necessary costs are excluded and funds for foreseeable future (expansion, gen-2 chips) are reserved."
ThickAsThieves: but it's not exactly a strategy
to payout all
the monies
ThickAsThieves: I like
the divs n all, and I do
think AM can grow further
ThickAsThieves: I like how everyone is
thanking Friedcat for paying high divs as a strategy
