If you were GAW and the intention was to run a large Ponzi, wouldn't you keep inflating the payouts and charging $49.95 per MH for Prime? Instead they discontinued selling Hashlets for now. Certainly all our questions will be answered in the next month. Do they have the partners they claim? Will Hashcoin launch with the value they are predicting? It certainly is going to be entertaining to watch.
Stopping hashlet sales (not just Primes; you can't buy any new hashlets on ZenCloud although Solos might be available from gawminers.com) is a bit puzzling, but it might make sense depending on how active the Market is. Selling new hashlets would require them to spend more and more on daily payouts and/or add more hardware - depending on how you imagine their business model - whereas in the current situation they can take 10% of all Market sales without increasing anything in their backend. And the best part is that the 10% comes in the form of cash (BTC), while daily payouts are being forced into HP.
Yep, GAWs best bet to keep increasing revenue at this point is try to drive the market prices and trading activity up........
