is ASICMINER allowed to write a motion proposing a stock split? I believe a 10:1 stock split would greatly benefit the company.
Shares are trading at almost 5BTC right now, which is around 450~ USD per share. This is a great sum of money. The next best option are the TAT.ASICMINER shares which are 100:1 but incure a 5% fee.
A 10:1 split would mean shares would be at 0.47/share, which will be a much more acceptable entry point for many newcomers.
The trading of stocks after the initial distribution doesn't benefit the company at all, unless they plan to sell.
