i have been contemplating buying 1-2 of these since the thread started, but this lack of information is really scary.
i don't know if they are really busy developing this thing or they so sure that they can sell the whole patch with no communication effort or what.
I don't know man... They replied to my email. And I wasn't even the most enthusiastic potential customer. I said I might have money for one in September. So not really like they replied to me just because I was a big fish. I'm sure they have their hands full, or perhaps some are on vacation. Sometimes we forget people are people. They need their rest.
so assuming all 4k units are sold. the current 350Th will be increased by additional 400Th which means one can expect half the amount of coins, so instead of 150000 coins you gonna get 75000 and at current price is around 600usd per month. making it 5months to ROI hmmm...
Are you sure your numbers are correct?
As the Team already stated the asics will deliver at least 250 Gh. That makes a total of 1000 Th if all 4000 are Sold.
It is very likely GPU Mining will be useless because of brutal difficulty increase. So most of them will step out and dualmine something else.
So we will have almost all Hashingpower done by these 4000 Obelisks. At least for the first six weeks. In this time you will very likely get 1/4000 of every Blockreward.
That makes a total of round about 225,000 SC.
Makes me wonder... any thoughts on what happens if Siacoins get a 200% or 400% upsurge in price. Does that influence anything do you think?
