Your estimates are way off. Just took the biggest number and added up they give me 54PH/s. Doesn't it seems a bit too much considering that from June until now the network grew only with ~40PH/s? Even the minimum numbers are a bit off. 25PH/s is 60% of the 40PH deployed in the last months. It's more than all other manufacturers combined!

Considering that KnC launched the Neptunes and Bitfury is working on 3 DC (Georgia, Iceland and Finland) I really think that the numbers are just pure imagination.

54PH sold does not mean 54PH is added to the network. It could take weeks before chips start hashing. (longer if you are xbtec)

Also 40PH is way off. Network was 80PH on june1 and is now 140PH.

I think we should use as reference for the network speed only the last difficulty adjustment because the "live" hashrate of 140PH isn't actually accurate and it includes the variance in it. At the moment of this post the "live" network speed is at 133PH which proves my point.

It may take weeks before chips start hashing, but it will also take months before AM sells their 100PH worth of chips.

yea right, competitors doesnt lie. they're all hanging around hands in hands.
even if not from chip sales, divs will come with franchisees plugging in.
anyho, i'll keep my underpromise/overdeliver.
best of luck.

Last time I've heard the "underpromise/overdeliver" was coming from KnC and they failed badly. They are still behind shipping Batch 1 units.

some of you people forgetting that even if it is the case that the sales are not optimal (not proven), that the chips will go to self mining instead...

That train has sailed as AM doesn't have the money and the deployment capabilities to deploy a big scale self mining operation. FC could do it right as soon as he had chips in hand, but he didn't do it.
