I would like offer a best ever miner design in exchange for such chip. What I mean of 'ideal miner'. Manufacturing costs for miner will be only around 1/5 of overall price. 4/5 of price will be net cost of chips.
Miner will run at high voltage with great efficiency ~95%. I have prototypes for different current chip manufacturers, so I can provide proof if needed. Also I have a farm for personal use that employ such technology.
whay you joke around bitcoin.If you good chip designer.Apple,AMD,Samsung pay you couple bilion $ and more if you design working FinFET in 14-16 nm. But if i can design working 14-16 nm chip i sale patent right in first year 100$ by chip and colect 20-30 bilion $ second year by apple,samsung,AMD,Intel and all other smartphone company.
you must contact http://www.tsmc.com/english/default.htm tsmc produce chip You must have only $ in advance cuple year.
If I understand you correctly, you're saying bitcoin chip designers should be working toward a FinFET 14-16 nm chip. I've read that there are two companies getting close.... and one company has reached tapeout saying the chip is 0.07 W/GHS???:
All in all, it looks like a new "chip efficiency race" is ready to begin??
or
Is it all hype???
Bottomline:
Most miners love what Bitmain has done for the industry. If these new super efficient chips are close to becoming a reality, then Bitmain is likely exploring/developing them too.... so that they can maintain their share of the market.
The only problem KnC & Bitcoin Brothers are not going to sell to the public,just to corps wanting to start massive farms (or themselves),same as Bitfury & Spoondolies
Not sure if Bitmain can keep selling to us home miners either...have to wait & see
