why are people trying to ditch shares sub ipo righ now ? i dont know why people would do that unless its the dot com crash in the 90s

This is normal. In general, if the difficulty goes up, the dividends will be lower and the shares will be worth less. The price is falling because the difficulty is rising.

it is true the shares will be worth less as dividends are reduced over time. but dividends have been the same all week, so i dont think it applies to the recent dip.

As I understand it - divs will be constant until the next difficulty change (mid-next week I believe). Then, they should be constant until the next difficulty change (2 weeks later)

Yes and even with the difficulty increase virtualmine will pay more dividends/btc then asicminer

I highly doubt this, since each share is 'equivalent to 1MH/s'.

3BTC AM
0.007 virtualmine
1 asicminer share=428 virtualmine
1 AM=0.036/week
428 Virtualmine=0.09656108/7days

Even with a difficulty increase it will still outperform AM in dividends.
