I don't know the price, but if Bitfury's history of pricing is any indicator, expect them to be $10,000.

Thank you, do you know how much similar units from other companies sell for?

Folks seem slow to respond to inquiries even if I wish to buy in bulk.

Thank you.

Those are the old machines that are being replaced with the units OP is referencing.

That aside, if they wanted 5$/GH for a used unit in March, they probably want 5$/GH for a new unit now.

I ammend my previous price point prediciton from $10,000 to $17,500.

The BitFury 3500BF is under 1$/GH but it is not sold individually.

They are either shipped to hosting facility owners / operators with atleast 0.5-1MW of capacity and mining profit is shared between bitfury group and the datacenter operator, or sold at around a moq of 100 units.

Peta-Mine has bought above 1 PH of these units at around 1.7$/GH around 2-3 months ago.
They were shipped within a few weeks and my understanding is that bitfury group ships these as in-stock products on a PH magnitude.

I see. Thanks. I get that they aren't sold individually but it is very hard to get pricing on bulk when they don't respond to requests.

I inquired for 150 units and I still haven't heard back.

Are there resellers of these machines?

It is easier to build at the moment VS buying it.
