Another week for them to mine the shit out of the hardware, and another difficulty spike for consumers to deal with by the time they finally arrive.
Although I guess you could make the argument that Bitmain is spiking the difficulty themselves so they have a better estimate of what will happen when all their hardware goes live, and adjust the price based on that difficulty level. But I kinda doubt that.
They own the hardware until they sell it, so what exactly is your point?
I would agree that it is bad practice if the hardware was prepaid, but they sell in-stock product.
Atleast they seem to be beta testing their hardware, and not some poor user who gets shipped a box of broken parts.
It is well known that Bitmain uses most of their hardware before shipping it, but this also means that the unit is well tested.
