Will be reopening the shop soon! The chip is crazy and amazing. Anyone interested in H-cards with 16nm chips?
I think people are more interested in all the non chip parts of this, power consumption can only sell people so far.
- What will the estimated MOQ be? $1k, $10k, $100k etc.
- Please don't announce preorders...
- How much engagement we will get with the community which isn't done through a PR agency?
- How will these be sold? Please don't say system integrators and please don't say by resellers, both of which have been a detriment to end users.
- Are they going to be priced at remotely viable levels? I'm not one to comment on profitability usually but lets at least get in the ballpark.
- When is SoonTM, cutting through the PR when are we actually expecting products?
- Who is going to support sales and support? Bitmain currently has droves of people doing just that and I can't see the Head of Product Development sticking about to answer 200 emails a day.
- Will you finally release or showcase previous designs (BF3500 etc) outside of NDA? It adds credibility and trust to consumers knowing what previous machines looked like. The last thing we saw were H-boards, which while sufficient at the time are a pretty outdated design.
I feel this - like many other previous announcements - are the diamond ring at the proposal. I just hope we don't get mistreated in the rest of the marriage.
