the power efficiency is a good achievement, and the hashrate is great, but it's hard to see how US/Brazil/German home miners can compete against the energy costs (both pure hashing power, but also cooling costs) of regional competitive advantages present in Iceland or Russia or Canada mining locations. As mining efficiency approaches the Moore's Law limit present in the commoditized CPU/storage markets, then power generation costs become the true competitive markers?
