It's not like you can get a 3Th/s Neptune now. If you buy a Neptune now you will get it in September too. There is nothing on stock right now.

Do you really think they will be shipping in september? They said they expect to ship batch 1 and 2 before the end of this month..

So you are selling cheap inefficient use of power in an expensive immersion cooled setup. Much marketing, less hardware.

Roadstress sp30 offering:$0.88/gh 0.5w/gh $0.15/kwh (starts hashing in a few months)

Datatank offering: $0.93/gh 0.6w/gh $0.025/kwh (starts hashing in a few weeks)

0.6w/gh is not inefficient and <$0.5/w for cooling is not expensive.

Please be more bad evasive at comparing apples with oranges. Comparing different power prices shows exactly how bad intended are you. Are you implying that an SP30 CAN'T be hosted for the same $0.025/kwh or what? Anyone that can afford a DataTank can also afford building his own air cooled datacenter in the WA state where power is $0.025/kwh! Comparing $0.15/kwh with $0.025/kwh is simply lame.

You only need 0.028btc to afford datatank/giant mining operation rates.

It's a fair comparison because your customers need to spend $5,300 + $0.15/kwh where as datatank customers spend $17 for 18GH. Please show me hosting at $0.025/kwh available to your customers. I doubt you can even find below $0.05/kwh.

Yes someone could probably build an air cooled DC but even at $0.025/kwh immersion cooling would save ~$200,000/year in electricity costs alone.

Also please show me demo of the Datatank reaching 0.6w/gh, otherwise is just in your dreams.

It was confirmed to be tested at 0.6w/gh by datatank.

Also how can you get better numbers with an sp30? Datatank hardware production costs are $0.53/gh vs your material costs of $0.5/gh. Will you be selling SP30 in a few weeks for $3200 each? (including shipping)

Again comparing apples with oranges! How can you compare datatank hardware production costs with full miners production costs? Unbelievable!

Datatank HW production costs are $0.53/gh. $0.82/gh is including cooling.
