if you guys all consider that, the MH/W is a very important value, we could pay more effort on energy consumption optimize.
Two sides of the bitcoin :
- You need to deliver fast to be among the first to mine with ASICs
- ASICs will at the end place the profitability of mining to the lowest possible value, and within a year or something only the low consumption systems will be profitable.
These two concepts being contradictory, you'll have to find a compromise
I've been repeatedly surprised at the speed of developments regarding FPGAs & ASICs.
With so much competition - it seems to me that 'within a year or something' may be a short time indeed, and so low power consumption should be a pretty high priority.
