Canaan is competing with their distributors and Bitmain.They just dropped the price of the 841 down to $1625. Looks like you are right, the people rushing to buy earlier are going to end up paying more and getting it at the same time as the late buyers. If you're able to buy 20 from Canaan right now, you'll get them before the distributors. It's a 3 week wait for everyone else. Looks like Bitmain may drop their prices again too with this move by Canaan.
