It's a very smart move by them. They've already proven that their customers can't do basic math. If you have customers like that, why not take advantage of it?
Anyone buying GHS today at these prices is completely mathematically challenged. On the 25th those FHA contracts will mature, and there is no way 1GHS of hashing will produce the difference in cost between today and then.
0.0094 current GHS price (and rising for some idiotic reason)
0.0083 current FHA price (matures on 25 APR)
------
0.0011 BTC you would need to mine in 1 week to make a 1 GHS buy today more profitable than buying FHA
0.0005044 Calculated BTC you'll mine in a week with 1 GHS (excluding their maintenance fee)
So yeah, they know their customers very well and this will not hurt them.
Very true lol.
When FHA and FHM are at 0.0083 and 0.0041, it is really crazy why people go buy immediate hashrate at 0.0094.
