My understanding was that 200`000 shares belong to Bitfountain, 200`000 to ASICMINER company. ASICMINER sold some of the shares in thr IPO to raise capital. It is not clear at all what the fate of unsold shares is, nor what the fate of their dividends is.
I understood it the way that asicminer isnt a company in itself. Bitfountain is the only company involved behind. And Asicminer is only a name for the project. Otherwise... if it would be a company someone has to own it. And he would own the shares then. But it would be strange that one company would sell all of itself like it was planned with the 200000 shares.
