I think it should be simply a price that maximizes profit. Selling more for a lower price or selling less for a higher price. Something in between. Asicminer cant change the buyers behaviour. If they dont buy here they buy elsewhere. And it doesnt matter how much preorders are floating around. Thats something the buyers seems not to consider.
To maximize profit is to set the price (at least) as high as possible for the product to still be selling in whatever volume is being produced.
I'm a genius.Thats correct for the moment. The price wont drop lower than the potential income from self mining. The demand ist simply too high. I sold my bitburner through a backward auction. And i think that might be a good way here too. Dropping the price per miner a bit for each hour. So you can ensure the miners are sold and you most probably get the best price you can get. Asicminer can ship instantly too. So i think thats a good way to get the best profit.
