So, I take it the price of S9 hasnt been corrected for halving yet? ... looks outrageously overpriced...

these new batches released after halving are still insanely priced way too high

They are perfectly priced from the viewpoint of bitmaintech  and all of us that purchased Batch 1 ,2 ,3.

I could sit and do a lot of fancy economic bs ...here is the bottom line  only bitmaintech can make a .1 watt miner in

bulk and  cheaply.

Since they self mine  they can sell their gear  at 1800 or 2000 a piece and only sell a few dozen a day.

All the while they retool hashnest  with new s-9's  and don't feed the hashrate much.

They have absolutely done a great job  for their bottom line.
They will not have to lower prices on the gear until:

 A) a btc crash
 B) a new build comes out with a .1 watt machine
