Anything we say about price is just guessing lol I know a company that sells a box thats a raspberry pi inside to manage some hardware at my job and its 950$ so just because its a pi doesnt mean we can begin to guess at price as its really up to company how much they price it at as real hardware price doesnt always impact final product costs

But given the industry Id imagine they would try to keep it low and accessible

You know I was begin to wonder as to how we arrive at 20-40$ as no information is from the Bitfence team as at the time of typing this lol... It's still pure stipulations let see upon main launch how much it's going to do for

Their whitepaper confirms it's free to download:

'BitFence software will be available to download as freeware.'

They will not be selling something they are giving away for $900, they also say that they are selling SD cards with it preloaded, this might be like $5 over what a standard one costs, but their goal is to get as many of these miners globally as possible, their money will come from selling the fingerprints as definitions to other companies, and as part of the subscriptions.

A good point that they sell the fingerprints to other companies. I've always thought that hackers are banned only from Bitfence networks and outsiders are excluded. But the sale of the hacker data makes more sense, of course

There is also the subscription protection model; so you will get to be protected using the data collected of mining and If I am not mistaken the subscriptions are paid in the token.

Yeah, you can only buy their services by using the HNY token, so there is always going to be a constant demand of them which is good.
