Where is competition ?

/r/bitcoin had a link to this story I read last night, https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/the-unknown-giant-a-first-look-inside-bw-one-of-china-s-oldest-and-largest-miners-1444675310

"We will also be offering the 14nm chip in a miner for consumers"

Apparently they are working on a 14nm chip, so that's something we can hope they will actually sell to individuals. I am not familiar with them and I don't find google translate does a good enough job when researching them on .cn sites.

Isn't BW the same as LKETC who made a shitload of Dragon miners back in the day? They're not new although the 14nm thing could well be vaporware. The Dragon was based on a 28nm chip made by someone else so it's hard to believe how they suddenly have the ability to make a 14nm one.

Anyway, on topic, at approximately ~0.027 BTC per day our compensation after 3 days should be around $20 per S7.
