anyway if true (2000$ vouchers) that means that we're going to pay
mars only 795$. it seems a fair price as long as jupiter will be delivered
in a reasonable time frame.
How is $795 a fair price when BFL is offering a product with the same hashing power for $275?
https://products.butterflylabs.com/5-gh-s-bitcoin-miner.htmlIf what KNC have said is true, buying a mars would mean that:
- you get 2000$ discount on jupiter,
- you'll get the same place in the order queue for the Jupiter purchase
- you'll be able to get Mars quickly since, it will be "available for purchase
in the next few days."
Having said that we also know that BFL 5Ghs miner exists but we
don't know when you will get it if you place an order now.
so taking into account all above points it seems fair to say that
795 is fair price
Obviously all the KNC statements made so far have to be true,
and I'm not sure about that. To be honest I have to admit I would
have chosen a different plan if I were in their shoes , let's say a higher
focus on getting Jupiter ready asap leaving the Mars alone; or if they
had to gather some money for the Jupiter development I'd had preferred
a lower price for Mars, let say something near the 1500$.
That said where do you get the $795 price and how is it fair?
2795$ - 2000$ = 795$
Yeah I agree the Jupiter would completely change the game. If it's -$2000 for people who buy the Mars then that is only $5000 which is somewhat reasonable for the amount of hashing power it offers. The question is how reliable it is, how efficient is it, and I agree why does it need water cooling and how will that work?
I do agree with you. Reliability, effectiveness, and *time*
are key factors. And it would be greatly appreciated if KNC
would be so kind to share more info about those in the near
future, the sooner the better.
