After ASIC what comes next?

[MrZillion]

I am following closely the developments of FPGA boards. I know there's a lot of talk back and forth but it's worthwhile exploring in my opinion.

If you don't mind my asking, why look at FPGA when ASIC is around?

It seems like the hashrates are minimal, still costs a bomb, not sure I see the point?

In terms of ROI you make better money installing a solar rooftop than an ASIC miner. 

Just sayin.

You asked so here it is! YesMiners.http://www.yesminers.de/en/mining.html?acc=1679091c5a880faf6fb5e6087eb1b2dc YesMiners was founded in 2014 by a small group of German high-tech veterans with the aim to build he best possible miners from scratch.

Partnerships with the world's most innovative suppliers are guaranteeing extremely efficient Bitcoin Miners with the latest 16nm 3D FinFET process. This technology provides performance improvements by a factor of 8 and at the same time 80% less power requirements.
10Th and 20Th units! Wow! Ready to start mining again?

The yesminers site has scam all over it.  I like the way the site says their miners are "In Stock" yet have a "Shipping Date: January 2016". Claiming 20 TH from 1,500 Watts for an existing miner is just not believable. Especially from someone no-one had heard off.  Sorry.

It is likely yesminers have based their material on what KNC hope to eventually accomplish.  

There have been similar claims/scams/vapourware in the past about companies having 16nm 3D FinFET based miners. See

Asics forever.
