ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It

[jimmothy]

BTCGarden, ROCKMINER, Lightning Asics, etc. combined only account for, say 6 PH/s.

Source?

Only an overly generous guess. BTCGarden managed to sell a lot, yeah. They had sold like almost a PH a month ago. let's assume they now sold 3. With all their 400 GH/s machines, ROCKMINER needs to sell like 4000 machines to achieve a single PH. Lightning Asic seems to be stagnating ever since. They even have a in-stock-counter that moves about 5 pcs/week. I doubt they sold more than 100 TH/s. Who else is there? XBTec used to be the big hope for AM. Well, they've gone silent, and only have lowered (as in 'it got worse') their consumption expectations. They really seemed to have done the trick in optimizing the BE200. I'm having a hard time reaching even those estimated 6 PH/s. And that would only account for 1/10 of those 60 PH/s
Hashratio and franchised mining seems to be the final straw. And I can't believe that FC is dictating the terms there 

Please show me calculations that support more chips have been sold to manufacturers!

Lightning asic was only reselling hashratio machines AFAIK.

Here are my estimates:

BTCgarden 3PH-5PH sales + 2PH self mining
Hashratio 1-5PH sales + 10-20PH self mining
Lightning asic 1-2PH self mining
Rockminer 2-3PH sales + 1-2PH self mining
xbtec 2-10PH self mining (Can't really go off their own numbers since they seem somewhat bad at estimations but they are deploying HW apparently)
Edentech ~1PH

AM mine 2-4PH (could be franchising/mining 20+ PH if they found a location with cheap electricity)

According Zhaodong's weibo, Hashratio consumes about 4-5P BE200 chips

Source?

[feifa]

Hashraio has crowdfund 13 million CNY, which could support producing 3250 miners(cost 4000 CNY). Each miner is 900G/s.
Before crowdfunding, Hashratio has runned a 1P farm.
So together is ~4P

Is that the same 4-5ph hashratio was funding a few weeks ago?

Also are you sure they are only mining with 1ph?

Those are bold estimates, but after all they're still what they are... estimates. Do you've got sources to prove those claims or that indicate those numbers? Your're known to be rather optimistic at times  (no offense)

Hashratio's CEO Zhaodong said the cost of AM Tube is 4000 CNY. As the hash chip(BE200) is the most expensive element of miner,
I guess hashratio is not the farnichised mining for AM now, It just buy AM BE200 at low price.
According Zhaodong's weibo, Hashratio consumes about 4-5P BE200 chips

Do you've got any insight on the price the BE200 chips are sold at these days or over the last month?

Your estimates are way off. Just took the biggest number and added up they give me 54PH/s. Doesn't it seems a bit too much considering that from June until now the network grew only with ~40PH/s? Even the minimum numbers are a bit off. 25PH/s is 60% of the 40PH deployed in the last months. It's more than all other manufacturers combined!

Even if they added 54PH/s they are far from their 100PH/s estimates in 2 months and still no dividends!

Considering that KnC launched the Neptunes and Bitfury is working on 3 DC (Georgia, Iceland and Finland) I really think that the numbers are just pure imagination. How about we ask FC how many PH he sold in the last 2 months for a better answer?

54PH sold does not mean 54PH is added to the network. It could take weeks before chips start hashing. (longer if you are xbtec)

Also 40PH is way off. Network was 80PH on june1 and is now 140PH.

Well maybe because... umm... he doesn't freaking answer us anymore?

Zhao said in QQ earlier he didn't receive details about AM franchising.
And everyone in China can buy BE200 at low price

Yeah, there were at least 60 PH/s that need to be cleared from stock 
But do you have any idea about how low that price actually is?

I didn't check the current price, but was given a price in May, from supplier that order 3ph worth.
 Asicminer stockholders may want to check their pacemakers and ensure they do not have history of high blood pressure. 

I think hashratio has rebrand their AM tube as galaxy dragonflies now

But the $0.35 / GH/s back at the end of May or early June were right, weren't they?

Do you not know what "source" means? It certainly doesn't mean "continue to pull information out your arse". Either provide sources to verify what your saying or stop talking shite.

Well, here's what FC said at the beginning of June:

Brief Answers to Shareholder Questions

10) What is the average selling price of AM gen3 chips (price per Gh/s)?

About 0.5$/G for sold chips.

Yes,  as far as i know it was a foundry service mediated by hashratio.  They gave more info about it few months ago on their weibo and via email if you contacted with an order quantity in mind

It's crazy times, man! I really don't see that AM is delivering anything right now! See how everyone's all tensed up and stressed out? The people showing some doubts get shunned immediately. Sure, they can't deliver any proof, but when everything's indicating that AM isn't selling at a profitable price anymore, they are being insulted. Not nice at all, man.
