Are you retarded?
What if the "just price it higher than most people can justify" mean a loss?
The fact that you think its a no lose situation shows you're dumber than you sound.
Say that to thousands of bankruptcy companies, "dont worry yo.... just produce who gives a shit about demand."
Wtf?! Don't be such an asshole, asshole!
If you had any reading comprehension skills maybe you would understand what I was saying. Here, let me try again...
Bitmain would NEVER sell S4s at a loss because... wait for it...they don't have too.
If they price the S4 so they make a healthy profit on each unit but it's too expensive for home miners, they won't sell many at retail. But they'll just mine with them or add them to Hashnest.
And remember, their costs to mine with their own equipment is much lower than home miners who pay retail and don't have access to cheap power. They will be able to run them for a very long time before they become unprofitable.
Some idiots here even think that Bitmain will drive themselves out of business by selling equipment at a loss to make us happy!
