I am interessted in your miners, but 8000 dollar is way too high.
For example, a november KnC was priced at $ 5,585.24 ships to The Netherlands.
They were doing average 670 GH/s, with the new firmware they a doing 700+.
For example I use 670 GH/s.
$ 5,585.24/670 GH/s=8,336179104477612 $ per GH/s delivered end november and begin december.
Your miners are 8 dollars per GH/s delivered at mid March.
You called your competitors copycats, but why are their websites registered before yours and launched before yours?
They also start to bulk ship at mid March, but at 19999 renminbi (Yuan), which is $ 3266,22 and on par or a bit cheaper than BITMAIN Antminer S1 per Dollar per GH/s.
Your product doesn't have any advantage over the other manufacturers.
I am not attacking you, but I am stuck wit questions.
Can you please answer them?
It is simple.
Our first 1300 systems are being purchased by the mining facility. You can see the video on Youtube posted here. That is why we act late for sell publicly. And the website stuff.
Also the price is no longer 8K, but around 5.5K now.
About the 19999 RMB, that is a market trick, the true story is whatever system you bought from them, they will mine freely for first 10 days before ship to you. But even that, they barely make even at that price level (even considering cheap components).
But why they do that?
1. They want to kill all competitors off.
2. If they can do that, they will be the only A1 system maker in China so they can go back to push the chip prices down.
But so far, they didn't sell too much, and chip makers are not back down. So every interesting ahead...
You claimed that your competitors use cheap components and that it is a marketing trick to sell at 19999 yuan with losses, even if they use the miners to mine for 10 days before they sending it out they will not break even.
The only purpose is to kill competitors and become the only A1 system maker in China, which I find strange, because all your competitors lowers the prices.
So they are killing each others, so that 1 company will left to be profitable.
This story is really hard to believe.
Even using inexpensive components, the production costs and other costs will not exceed 19999 yuan.
5 Antminers use more parts than 1 miners from your competitors, and BITMAIN don't really use cheap parts.
Beside that, BITMAIN has to pay 5 times shipping fees to ship out 1 Terahash of 5 OC 200 GH/s Antminers and still be able to make profit.
BITMAIN can still lower their prices further and still be profitable.
To be honest, I believe you disagree with your competitors to lower their prices to stay competitive and still be profitable.
You want to sell your product at a PREMIUM.
I think this will not work anymore, you have way too many competition now.
The BFL, AVALON and Hashlast era is long gone.
People won't be easy to be fooled for a second or third time.
