Yes do tell...as I have never seen one that did well. It must be a private setup?

I can give two examples of publicly available contracts with which it was possible to ROI (in coins terms). One is mining bitcoins and it's PBMining - if bought in February it'd be already positive. Second is mining altcoins and it's LTCGear - the best time to buy them was at the time they allegedly deployed new chips (around July).
However, I don't have 'smoking gun' evidence of legitimacy in both cases.
In PBMining case positive ROI if calculated as of today in fiat would require successful hedging of your investment and would be more difficult to achieve.

Could you answer the original question?  Which contract were you invested in and when did you purchase it?
thx.

 This is a good question.  I think this is a standard buy-back clause which would allow them to buy back the shares should the need arise.  Imagine that there might be an unscrupulous person in the Bitcoin world (I know this is hard to imagine... please play along) who would buy up all the shares and rebrand the operation in order to expand their own enterprise.  Maybe Sam Cole needs to add some inexpensive hashing power to one of his many Datorhalls, or maybe Sonny Vleisides and Josh Zerlan are looking to bring some innovation to BFL (lord knows they could use some inexpensive innovation right about now), or maybe Creativex aka Eric Corlew is looking to make a come-back with bASIC-mining so he can repay his shareholders (hey, we can dream)...  Anyway,  AMHash could then buy back the shares and regain control of their own operation.  I realize these are rather extreme examples but as you can see, it protects AMHash as well as the shareholders.  These are bargain basement prices for hashing power and maintenance fees.  I would not be surprised at all if someone would try to exploit this offering in such a way but I do not believe that the clause is there to take advantage of AMHash shareholders.

 

1. not solo mine, AMHash will also mine in BTCguild, Ghash or other pools;
2.mining in which pool will not affect investors' profit, AMHash will pay them on theory calculation.

Sorry, everything I could say about this is in the previous post.

Grilled cat isn't going to arbitrary buyback during the early IPO period. There will only be a buyback if something changes.

Q1: the power rates look to be around $0.09/kwh - thats a decent price, but i bet the actual costs are lower. part of the fees is maintenance.
Q1.1: The problem is that asicminer shares have not paid dividends for months, and constantly slipping in value. Apparently they sold/are selling 5PH and still no dividends.

It would be nice to see the IPO price reduced slightly, because its clearly not selling out very fast

I think majority of shares will be sold in weekend. First dividends in friday, closure of IPO in monday. When people will see how high (low?) dividends are then they will make a decision to buy or not.
