They doesn't pre-sold like other companies, they just book clients for months ahead. And they are selling finished product. Not promises. About upping production. They are : 850 000 chips in April, 3 350 000 chips in May, 6 700 000 in June from 160 000 000 chips total of gen3. Meanwhile working on gen4.

I remember around $0.5 per Gh, having each chip ~12Gh, but I'm not sure at all. if I'm right with my maths, dividends in the upcoming months should be similar to the old golden days... Amazing. Am I missing something?

What is our current estimate of how many chips have been sold, in total?
Everything is sold. All chips from April 8.5 Ph/s batch and maybe part of 33.5 Ph/s May batch too. Where did all these chips go? It seems someone has a large number of AM chips, but is keeping quiet about it.

whatt?! where did you get those numbers? Its upper limit from : 1) What is the order of magnitude of 3rd generation chips ASICMiner anticipates to sell (total / first batch / first 3 months)? re 1) Order of magnitude: Depending on fab capacity. Total target is 10k to 40k wafers, relying on competitors, Bitcoin price, and other factors. A wafer is rated at 40 TH/s.
also I see that you're calculating 0.5$ profit per Gh/s ... selling price is from 0.49$ (unlikely for first batches) to 0.99$ (more likely), production costs -0.2$ Gh/s, put this into sheet Where did all these chips go? It seems someone has a large number of AM chips, but is keeping quiet about it.
We don't need to know as far as dividends are flowing

We don't need to know as far as dividends are flowing For the next round of questions, I propose to ask whether more batches after batch 3 are still planned.

no, the most relevante question will be what is the status of the development of gen 4.

I believe gen 4 to still take quite some time!

I believe gen 4 to still take quite some time! I don't want to believe anything, conjectures are useless, that's why I would ask that to have some actual information about its status.

I don't argue that getting to know a first timeframe for gen 4 is a good idea! I'm just trying to manage expectations here...

I thought there will be a gen 3.1 before.

3.1 is effectively the current generation. It is not a new chip, only a new package, AFAIK. Are we waiting for gen3.1 or still for gen3 chips?
There's no difference in production time. AFAIK they simply enlarge an area when packaging the chip or something similar in order to get rid of the heat better. There's no change in the circuits themselves, so no tapeout, test batches or anything. Like when you ordered 100 cars and before/while they are being made you tell the factory to paint them in another color.

What is our current estimate of how many chips have been sold, in total? - 23k to Rockminer - 72k to LightningASIC - an unknown, but supposedly large, number to Hashratio.
So maybe ~200k total that we know of? Any news/rumors that I missed?
Not sure if hashratio or rockminer have built their solo farms yet but hashratio is expected 2ph and rockminer 1ph Where is the information about the rockminer solo farm?

Can't believe how low the share price is. Picked up a few today - wish I could pick up a few more. The dividend schedule seems like a given.

Somewhere in rockxies ipo thread. IIRC theyhad a goal of selling 10ph. Looks like hashratio solofarm is up to 115th. Soon to be 1ph: in a few days it should be deployed between the 500T-1000T, please God fish testify! Side note: I don't think we should expect the first batch of chips to be sold for much more than $0.5/gh considering hashratio manifacturing costs are about $0.8/gh for complete miners. Currently we use roasted cat chip production mining machine, stand-alone costs about 4,000 yuan / 768G (overclocked 800G), which is about 5.2RMB / G (without power) Hashratio info from http://weibo.cn/zhaodong1982

OEM service starting order amount: 1,000,000 RMB.
Our OEM price of about 5,000 yuan / sets About $1/gh.. Not bad if you have 360btc.
