That's about 8 TH/s (minimum) for about $5100 or roughly $0.64/GH for in-stock hardware

Holy cow! Makes you wonder how much they pay for the actual production. If they use even bigger machines, they really seem to be able to push the price down for their self-mining. The move to price the machines so low seems to be part of the "squeeze the competition" plan.

lol it reminds me the 400 Gh bitfury rig i bought for $5200 back in october Grin
