Looks like we got a div today finally... though its lower than 2 days.
looks like he decreased hash. sam most likely got medical problem, some personality lackness, i bet on it.
Well, if the numbers are correct, then the dividend per share went up so,
in theory, LC hashed more..
I doubt that a bit since they paid so late. They paid 11 hours earlier the day the last days. Time to earn more bitcoins in these hours.
Puppet... till now no one feared the chinese government because of selling shares. btcgarden only closed because of the risks involved with chinese crowdfunding, as far as i know. And friedcat always checked out such potential legal risks to Asicminer. I mean it would be pretty stupid to risk all his income. So if you now start to generally question the legality then why not start at bitcoins? Its still a gray area and governments would have any right to forbid bitcoins. That happened with many regional currencies before often too.
So far i trust friedcat more than your legal advice in a anyway legal gray area.
Of course once colored coins get used, that may change, if these colored coins represent securities, that has the potential to threaten bitcoin
Agreed, if they use the blockchain to represent colored coins/securities, it will give them ammo to go after the entire Bitcoin protocol. Or if Ken creates an alt coin, then the exchange it's hosted on would be targeted.
These solutions are a step ahead right now, but only one step.
Friedcat stated something interesting:
Blockchain-based exchange out of pre-alpha (whether to migrate whole ASICMiner database is still a serious debating topic).
Though its open what that really means.
