Is there any way we can have 200 USD per 1TH some day?
Ofcourse.... will it be tomorrow no. Chances are it will be a much larger TH machine (hard to guess future) and with the more TH they do lower price per TH. I don't think were very close to the 200 goal you want. What if i go directly to the source manufactures and buy a really large bulk asic? The "source manufacturers" are BitMain, KNC, Spondoolies, Bitfury, AsicMiner, Cointerra, Butterfly Labs, HashFast and whoever makes those DragonMiner chips (Bitmine.ch?). I imagine that many of them would give you a bulk discount. Do your own research though! There are several manufacturers (most of them, really) that you should stay far away from. One is under investigation by the FTC and at least one other is bankrupt. Hint... BFL and HF.

if there is a huge gain in power and hash rate, then i think they will mine using those asics on their farm till they sell it to home miner.

Has anyone heard of the magazine it was in before this? I just got to thinking that would be one heck of a way to get a lot of views, make up a ad.

Some website just wanting some hits on their site to show to potential customers (advertisers) who would pay to advertise on their website.

Maybe that's because Bitmain was afraid that they will not be able to keep this promise and they preffered not to make any official announce... I don't know...

possibly, but there was no mention of power specifications, or hashrate, so there was nothing really, to go on.
