Literally anything you do with btc will not yeild as much return as just holding btc due to the rapid increase in price. In terms of USD almost everyone who bought an asic or invested in asicminer came out ahead.

The reason we are seeing such a price dip is because gen2 chips from AM were skipped which lead to a long gap between new hardware. The reason it was skipped was due to unsatisfactory performance and FC believes gen3 is more promising. Also by skipping gen2, gen3 will arrive sooner.

i checked friedcats posts, and i don't see any statement where he says gen2 is skipped, etc

any link to source where it says gen 2 is stopped/skipped?

I believe it was mentioned in the interview and was confirmed by board member jutarul.

jutarul is in this forum? link?

any reason why friedcat didn't want to include update of gen2 progress(skipped or whatever) in his couple of latest updates?

edit: oh never mind, i see jutarul, lol i am red face  Embarrassed
