True, but those are Hydro and future orders, I was talking about spot prices, they have generally gone up in the past couple of days, even the used ones, by the way, the Hydro requires 3-phase power and has to be installed in Bitmain's own container.
Yeah, I know but I was just thinking, maybe if Bitmain is cutting prices to industrial-size clients it might hint at a lack of customers there, and I really don't get the XP prices either...
Running through some numbers,at 2/5/10 cents
The XP 140T gets you 13/11/7$ a day
The S19 95T gets you 8/6/2$ a day.
Assuming your price of 8.3K and of the other one Bitmain standard of 4k, at 5cents/kwh you get 754 days of ROI for the XP vs 666
days. Adding 45 days in which the S19 XP has to catch up with the other one it means it will take the lead and be more productive only after two years and two months! Of course, it gets better and better the more expensive your energy is, at 10cents per kWh it is no competition, but if you have even cheaper energy then it kind of makes no sense...With the 19pro, the competition is even tighter if you manage to get it at 5k.

So it'll be under 3%, one day left it will be a period of extreme luck, and manage to get another 20 extra blocks just now, eh..
See the irony, we are now happy with 23k btc and 2.7T difficulty 
.
.Yeah, it was way better than 28T and B at 22700
