There is plenty of it in far away places - no where near stations. I have seen numerous systems in several different regions with lots of bistot with good amounts or ore reserved in them.
Go get it - with the price where its at now it is well worth the trouble imo.

Without regions names to back up these unlikely claims, I'd say your full of **** Even when you do find it you have to haul 16 jumps or to a refinery

So get off your lazy ass and haul for 16 jumps!! If you want your ore, you'll have to work for it. Bear in mind that Megacyte is supposed to be extremely rare.
There is obviously Megacyte out there, you'll just have to buy a fast ship and go-a-lookin out in 0.0 space for it.
--Edit: I'm positive this has been said before, but its quite blatantly CCP's way of controlling the amount of battleships currently in circulation. All you people moaning about deflated prices should be happy...--

geez chucky's lazy. i been hauling mega all day. will have a pile to sell tonight, 10k / unit. not much admittedly...maybe 350 - 400 units. but enough to make me happy.
just gotta be willing to work a bit. rare ore is supposed to be rare. ain't it? this isn't like DeBeers making diamonds *look* rare by restricting supply to boost prices.

Oh please! You people are all the same, you want everything for nothing. Here's a piece of info for you: getting what you want in these games takes effort, dedication and (yes i admit) a lot of patience.
If your willing to put in that effort, then you can do/have anything you desire. If you arent, then set yourself easier goals or play a game with a shorter lifespan.

Our corp has been overly patient since beta 5, we have lost a lot ships to bugs and exploits (non of which were ever replaced). Our corps main imcome was from Bistot and we don't like to spend 90% of game time just collecting ******* resourses.
Now hardly any logs in anymore and some have canceled there acounts So guess it don't ******* matter much now. So **** off!!!

Find another resource to farm if you cant be bothered to haul. Omber and Kernite are always good to mine and there is plenty around too.

Wretch you are full of ****. CaoCao - you are chief bul****ter, I have personally checked out two of the regions you named, and neither of them have roids biger than 90.7. FYI 89.7=10 bistot if you are lucky.
Baby roids don't equal loads of bistot. It respawns every day - just becasue there are 20 babies in a system, does NOT mean there is loads of it.
Cao - you are a trol, and a stupid one at that.

Tentimes, that's not exactly true. Radius isn't 100% to go by. Currently my corp is mining out bistot roids no bigger than 89.7m radius with over 200 units in them. And roids at 91.0m+ radius with over 1000 units in them.
The only way to be sure is to use a roid scanner.

You clearly have not looked hard enough. I will gladly show you several places in person (pick your region). But you will pay a huge price up front for me to waste my time and show you.
I don't mine and do minimal manufacturing so I have no need for it. Some of the locations are in very hostile territory btw.

As I said on another thread...we've (my corp) never had any trouble finding bistot.
Sure it's 18+ jumps out from station, but what's autopilot for :) 6 or so decent haulers can get 10k bist in a matter of hours.
Scout out a good system, and mine it to death. It might be a night of pure mining, but hey, Megacyte doesn't grow on trees..

Yep cao's right, there is tons of bistot out there, just not enough people mining it, so megacyte is high priced. and it will go higher the longer people dont mine it.
Think about this, a month or 2 ago, mega was alot cheaper because everyone was mostly in cruisers (max 200megacyte to build), but now everyone is getting battleships (2000-4000megacyte each) thats like 10x the ammount of a cruiser. So yes megacyte is alot more rare. Demand is high.
So if the people would quit complaining, and go mine some bistot instead, maybe the shortages wont be like they are. But i would prefer u dont mine it, i like selling mega for 10-12k each.

Wretch, in answer to that post, I wil pay you 1 Milion isk if you can show me even 1 rock with more than 100 in it. You can have the bistot - I will just check the can.

I found a couple of roids with 588 bistot in the other day, 10 jumps from a station (Curse), im no expert but judging by the size of bistot i'd say that was pretty big 
Our corp had a mining op out there, but we can't at the moment as we have found our office to be right in the middle of the Curse Alliance territory

Yes bist is out there, its just the logistics of organising a large-scale remote mining op is often prohibitive, especially with all the wars going on.
Having lots of indy pilots is the key to making an RMO work, and they are understandibly reticent to fly around in a warzone, as many of the above regions are these days.
Mobile refineries would help a great deal, but there are a lot of unresolved issues with deployables, particularly sentry guns (e.g. how to reliably program them with who to shoot at or not) which would be needed to defend any other kind of platform.
I can't help thinking an alternative might be needed in the meantime, such as a refining module even if its slow, inefficient, resource hungry etc. Hauling megacyte rather than bist would make an enormous difference to the feasibility of mining outlying regions.
*edit* I suppose a real easy quick fix would be to drip-feed some megacyte onto the NPC market (just so long as it doesn't always appear straight after daily DT of course).

I see lots of bist every day. In every system I go to. I can assure you that none of it has been touched for weeks either as there's never more than 10 people in the entire region - and none of us are mining  .
The catch? Well it's 20+ jumps from any station. Then again if I can "survive" out here hunting npcs (using large ammo) for days on end then I see no reason at all why a motivated corp could not carry out bist mining. Sure it'll take a couple of days to haul out the containers, but you either want mega or you don't.
As an aside, given that I've had 1k of mega on the market in Luminaire (at below the average price) for a couple of days I can only assume that people don't want it that badly.

Will you give me 20 mill then if I can find you ones with 1000 because I garuntee you I can bring you to at least 5 systems with Bistot roids that have over 1000 units in them. The closest to a station is 9 jumps the farthest is 12. I wouldn't make a bet like that because you WILL loose.

stop whining people, if you dont like it quit till mobile refnieries come out. then you dont have to go hauling all the bistot back.
im quitting for many reasons, one of them being that we were getting refineries but we didnt get them.
but god STOP WHINING, if you dont like seriously quit for a while and come back when people wont have to hear your dang whines

I've got 5 rocks currently bookmarked my corp is mining, each with over 1000 units in them. That's from 3 fields out of more than 20 fields in the solar system we're mining.
I've bookmarked the rocks with 200+ in them for future reference, which brings the folder in which I keep the solar system's bookmarks to 13 bookmarks so far.

LOL. I personally found Black Lotus in Q-CAB2 mining bistot and after he ran away I shot up two cargo containers with 1,000 and 1,200 bistot in them respectively.
You, my friend, are the one talking out of your ass. Just go looking man I find bistot roids with 800+ in them all the time (whenever I want to mine the stuff).

Cao, pls dont lie, u came into q-cab2, i assumed u were in a BS, Thepoet was also with u, so 2to1, so i left the field to a safe point, logged with an alt to check the fields, guess what? u were in a blackbird and thepoet had left, not only this u had Rubie on her way in her indy to grab the bistot, when i warped back into the field with my dom (only 3 guns\3miner2's) i shot u up, u ran, played a jump in shoot missiles, run game with me, and i blew up my own cans, to make sure rubie in her bestower would not get the ore, if i couldnt have it neither could u. So pls, i show u respect, show me some and tell the truth.
As to the guys iddiotic post about 2mill for showing him more then 100bistot in a roid, boy check out cao's list, goto those places, then send us 2mill per 2k bistot rock. U can send it to my main character Black Lotus. ty.
PS. dont bother in q-cab, already cleaned 40k out of it this week, not really any left atm.
Lastly. where the hell do all u whiners think the megacyte comes from for the 1000's of battleships roaming around??? umm.... BISTOT.

and u run away and come back launch a few missiles and run away again. but by the time BL could lock u cause he had no f-90's on, he would get one shoot off before u warped.
But u did screw us for the bistot, so good job there.

1st off, he had no chance to get it, i had a blockade set-up for rubie(his indy) in the very next system, and its a choke point.
Secondly i blew it up, because, i didnt know if he had reinforcements coming, or what the deal was, and i wasnt about to let my enemies walk away with my bistot.

HUH? im positive i seen Rubie in the field when i warped back in. And of course she immeditely warped out. She was there to collect npc loot cans?
And no i didnt see u shoot one torp at the cans, u shot everything at me. and i stayed in the field long enough to blow the cans up.(they were 100km away, so i did have to approach, thats what took me the extra time.)
Anyways, not try to take anything away from ya, u did stop me from hauling my bistot, and i stopped u from stealing it.

That move right after the patch AND BEFORE THE MEGACYTE SHORTAGE NEWS from the CCP news team, and to couple this with the Techel minerII programs in which THEY TRADED MINERII FOR MEGACYTE before this new megacyte nerf..
I WONDER IF SOME PEOPLE ACTUALLY DO HAVE INSIGHTS FROM THE GAME PRODUCTION PEOPLE..perhaps they thought that some alliances represent a fair percent of the gaming community so they felt like giving them some "tips" so they wont go nuts and quit ****ed off from the continuous nerfs and bugs?

Once CCP fix the baby roid problem (and this has been going on for a bit) it should mean that the miner simulator works again.
Thing is with the current setup there are loads of people who have never even SEEN Ark or Spod. In my mind that's a major screwup with the basic operation of the game.
In Fountain it's nearly all baby roids now so even the Alliance aren't getting all the mega like people think.
I bet the same goes for FA too.
Its not that hard to read the map right and find out what spots represent miners in an area and which not. I ve been seeing less and less numbers of what I perceive as miners both in Stain and in Fountain.
Every man lives..but not every man dies!
