Yes I am talking about market supply running out because of high BTC and the resulting high demand. That is our best (only) bet for selling our 55nm chips realistically speaking. Now if we want to add fantasy and unicorns and stuff then hell we might have some rich idiot buy all our chips for 200% Mark up.
The desirability of any chip is not based on it's clock speed but on it's value on the MH/s/$ scale (with GH/W being important)
You could bring out a 8nm ASIC but if it costs 500% more than a 28nm chip but only does 150% more hashing then no-one will buy it.
Our 55nm just needs to be cheap, if they are they will sell. No unicorns need to be employed in this venture.
The reason real ASIC companies are working on 28nm chips is those chips *are* cheaper per GH/s.
