Correct, no coupons. They did $22,000,000 the first day. I don't think we will be seeing coupons for a while.

You mentioned that number before. I don't necessarily doubt it, but where did you come up with it?

The USD price per unit when they went on sale was about $480. So if they grossed $22 million the first day, that's nearly 46 thousand units. Rounding up to 500 GH/s per unit, that's about 22 petahash.

That seems high to me. Maybe this market is bigger than I thought. Or maybe my math is wrong.

Someone had the btc address bitmain was apparently using to consolidate the purchases. I watched it the evening of the first day they opened up sales. Was actually looking for my order but never found it. Most transfers were multiples of .75 though so I would guess it was legit. But I don't remember where I saw it. If it was here or reddit.

Yeah...I saw it too...BUT it HAS already like 17,000 BTC prior to the starting of the sale...Their batch 1 was probably 1500-2500 units...I guess...

Could very well be. I only saw it that evening. Assumed it was all new.
