If you do the following:

1) Make a product
2) Sell it for a price that will allow people to profit after 30 days (don't do what Avalon and AsicMiner did, which is capitalize of the fear of not owning one)
3) deliver it too some bloggers
4) open you manufacturing facility to be viewable (photos, webcams, etc)
5) have a supply line that can ship a product to a user in < 30 days
6) be ready for a flood orders

then you sir will have a crazy cash machine on your hands. . ..in the end with bitmining, it's the hardware makers that will make "bank"

One question that has never been answered to my satisfaction: if you can manufacture these things to meet the above criteria why would you sell them? Why not mine with them yourself if they are that profitable?

I don`t get it. I will have to post in the thread that I have no interest in just for posting sake.

Meh, just post five randoms things and stay on the site for four hours.

If it filters out a bunch of spammers it's worth a tiny hassle.

Hey, good luck to you, but honestly from what I understand unless you're getting free electricity the difficulty is going to make mining at that hash rate unprofitable soon if not now.

I think somewhere between 80 and 175. A lot seems to be depending on how well SR responds to the DDOS attacks they are facing.

I think you're on the right track.

The increase in mining capabilities due to ASICs probably won't affect the price as much as a major retail entity entering the fray (paypal?). Most likely isn't going to happen in May, so price will likely bump along a mean of $120 +/- $30 for awhile. That is, of course, pulled completely out of my arse.
