What puzzles me is: why are they only selling 25 units? Does this mean that later on they will sell them cheaper?
We only have enough chips in our first run to build 25 units.
That's what I don't understand. The vast majority of ASIC cost is in the design. Whether you produce 25 or 250 chips, the cost is nearly the same.
Yeah I don't get it either although I doubt they have a 20 GH/s chip. More like 10? to 20? chips per "rig". So 25 units might be 500 chips. Still it doesn't seem to make any sense. 25 units @ $30K ea = $750K. 100 units @ $12K ea = $1.2 mil? Since incremental cost is small why would they want to limit themselves to 25 units and thus have to price them so high as to be inferior to other offerings?
