Yeah, that 100K ASIC chips is Huge! That's double the number they initially told us and if they all get released in the next 6 months that's basically Half the profit and double the time for ROI people initially speculated. Not too mention at $1300 per Single it's over 2X the price of an FPGA Single when released. We may end up making less per ASIC Single than had been making the last 6+ Months per FPGA Single. IMO this doesn't bode well for future earnings when put together w/ todays reward halving.
I hope i'm wrong, but it may be the ASIC companys who make all the $$ in the end.

A few people will make a lot of money. The majority of people will barely break even. The company selling the
shovels ASICs will profit greatly. Just another gold rush, nothing to see here folks.
This is of course if we actually see an ASIC hit the market.
