If CanaryInTheMine says so, it's good enough for me.

I hereby retract my previous statement.

So...friedcat's dead?

Unlikely.

Rockxie's statements seemed to indicate that it was not completely unexpected that friedcat would "disappear" (run away).

The other rumors (that even his wife is looking for him, etc...) are just that: rumors.

Huh, what do you mean? Where did Rockxie suggest that it was likely that FC was running away? I don't seem to recall that statement...

I didn't say that Rockxie said that it was likely that FC was running away.

However, in one of the last statements he (rockxie) made, he said he didn't know the reason why friedcat disappeared, but that it might be 60% professional, 40% personal. To me, this sounds like there were big problems lingering for a long time, and FC finally snapped.

That's not much to go on, admittedly, but we have absolutely no reason to believe he was kidnapped. Him being in prison or even executed is even less likely.

however ,since AM lost FC, a lot of decisions are probabaly hard to make.

Let the board heavily manage AM for a while.

A human translated post from Rock Xie.
Thanks to byt411


The key point is, what happened to friedcat, even I don't know. My guess would be 60% personal issues, 40% work problems. We would only know when he comes back.


This sounds like fc's disappearance was not a complete surprise.

Wow what a mess.

It would appear that the mysterious disappearance of friedcat is just an attempt to avoid shame (whatever the fuck-up). Which is of course exactly the wrong way of handling things.

Some serious dumping going on right now. Why now? I mean who expected FC to give an update in the middle of the Chinese New Year celebrations? I think we're in for news in early March. Hurts to see the price going down, though...

I was actually surprised it held on 0.1 for so long. This is turning to be really bad from every single point of view if you are holding right now. Hash rate shooting up, price of BTC relatively low, really bad communication from AM, other than the first chip I dont think AM turned profit on anything else, they have really weird deals all around with really marginal or not profit at all, competition is stronger than ever they earned total of what? 0.2-0.3btc per share when they were "the guy" and owned 30% of the network for nearly a year. I mean do the math its not going to be that easy ever again.
Is it possible that rising hash rate IS  AM? 

It's probably AntPool (it has overtaken DiscusFish).

AMHash went back up to 0.0011.

Might be a good time for AMHash4.

Can someone ELI5 this paycoin business? Why is this altcoin suddenly so interesting, and why is more that 50PH directed to the paycoin network?

Shouldn't we all be super stoked right now?

We produced the test boards in December 2nd, and got the packaged sample chips last night.
We were busy testing since then and had some preliminary data already.

Technology: TSMC 28nm HPC

Package: FCLGA 5mm x 5mm

On chip efficiency:
    0.56V | 4.8GH/s | 1.95A | 0.2275W/G
    0.60V | 5.2GH/s | 2.14A | 0.2469W/G

We are still testing more voltage-frequency combinations, as well as more chips.
But the test results are stable and solid so far.

Our power solution evolved from Prisma allows very low overhead in supplying very
low voltage levels to chips compared to standard DC/DC converters. Therefore on-wall
power consumption would be very close to (our on-chip power/PSU efficiency).

After the thorough testing of single chip boards, we are going to test boards with chained chips.

"AMHash cut down the maintenance fee from $1.633/TH/DAY to $1.551/TH/DAY."

Wow!

amhash: Is this true? Then why isn't your website updated accordingly? The prospectus on Havelock should be updated, too.
