I think you are looking at 25 btc at the high end. If it's worth 90btc to you then you should keep it.

It would be much much much cooler if Jalapeno's were worth 90btc.

That's what one of mine is worth to me, give or take.  Do the math with a few ballpark figures.  At only 2 months, strict ballpark figures suggest that 90 BTC is a bit high.  Liberal ballpark figures suggest that 90 BTC is realistic.  At 3-4 months, 90 BTC should look pretty damn good.

How do you figure? Assuming that 1) difficulty only doubles and then stays steady, and 2) The block reward halving doesn't happen in this time frame it would still take four months to earn back 90BTC.

Obviously the block reward halving will happen, and difficulty won't stay constant at 5M or so.

Hey everyone.

It's been over 2 months now since BFL's ASICs officially went on pre-order.

I am selling one (1) spot in line for a 1st-day-ordered Jalapeno from order #1769 (the first ASIC order was #1656).  I paid immediately with Bitcoins as opposed to a bank transfer so that my place in the shipping line would be solidified quickly. 

With every passing day, BFL receives more ASIC orders - orders that will inevitably drive up difficulty once shipped.  This means that the very first ASIC orders will be more valuable in terms of mining-time:profit than ASICs ordered today, and this will become more and more true as time goes on. 

Accordingly, I am looking for 90 BTC.  I will consider other offers.  I am in no rush to sell, and as time goes on, I presume the 90 BTC price tag will look more and more appealing.

If you buy, I will send the Jalapeno via overnight mail the day after I receive it from BFL so you can get it up and running ASAP for maximum profits in the first few weeks.
