(6.6 + 5.5 + 4.6 + 3.9 + 3.3) + (2.8 + 2.4 + 2.0 + 1.7 + 1,4)
= 23.9 + 10.3
= 34.2

So, based on Kano's prediction, 23.9 btc earned in first 3 months, and another 10.3 earned in next 3 months. Total 34.2 btc over next 6 months. Assuming BFL ships 0 units in next 6 months.

Good luck.

Looks like people who are paying 30-40K for Avalon are not calculated risk takers ? But what do I know. Even if btc goes to 1000 usd / btc, someone is better off just holding onto btc itself - not to mention what happens if it goes to usd 10.

16% difficulty rise is not sustainable :-) This calculation predicts difficulty 40M after 6 months and total hashrate around 280-300TH/s. I don't think that will happen.

Why? ASCISMINER alone wants to put online 1TH by the year end. I would love you to be right, but i can't find any support to your thesis.

My anger against what is wrong in the Bitcoin community is productive:

I would bid in the groupbuy if the auction wouldnt be that shortimed and i only get asicminer dividends in some more hours than the auction ends. But i made a calculation... Asicminer Shares are traded at least for 0.78BTC at the moment. The last dividend was 0.00695566. Using that dividend it would take 785 days to get the shareprice back with dividends. Of course there is the hope that Asicminer starts deploying more hashpower.
When buying one of these asics and using a difficulty of 9,672,999.92 then one would get 0.5599BTC per day. If buying such miner for 100BTC it would only take 178,6 days to get the buying price back in. Of course there is a risk that the difficulty goes higher... but the last months showed that this risk isnt high because nearly all Asicminer-Companies have problems of some kind.
So, i would bid if i would get my dividend earlier.

The lowest price is 46BTC now... its only 82,157 days to get the investment back. With higher difficulty than now. 9,000,000 instead 7,000,000. So i dont see the claims that the miners are too high valued.

It still means total hashrate will be around 300 TH..... either because they are mining with them themselves.... or because their customers are....

So that means 300 TH without BFL in about 2 - 3 months time

I really would like you are right but i highly doubt its possible for Asicminer to stamp out such a hashingpower in such a short timeframe. It would be cool though...

Actually current plan is to deploy 55 TH/s until end of may (which was planned until end of april at first, so it could be delayed further). When will the rest (~200TH/s) deployed is currently unknown.

Avalon batch 4... dont forget BFL will ship tomorrow... come on... you want to press down the price, but please not with such an amount of assumptions...

For those curious:

Update
...If we get the 60TH/s online (conservative) in late April, and the hashrate of the full network from that time is 200TH/s which linearly increases to 1,000TH/s in late December...Some may say that 1,000TH/s in the end of this year is too conservative...

I hope you have noticed the words "possible" and (?) ? You can safely exclude batch 4 (which is now in polling state), and still have batch 2 and 3.

Anyway, my point being that a 16% estimate seems far from unlikely considering the first Avalon was 20-Jan and ASICMINER started ~14-Feb?
You really think both Avalon and ASICMINER are going to STOP making ASICs?

It's easier to rise difficulty 16% when the value is 4M than when the value is 8M. And you are claiming difficulty will rise 16% when it's sitting at 34M.

No, i dont think that. But judging from the past i think the plans for new hashingpower arent what happens at the end. I mean you know what the plans were for Asicminers Hashingpower, for BFLs Delivery and so on.
I really think that the winners will make a good trade.
