"The chip have passed all the functionality tests " means the tape-out is successful and the biggest risk for chips have gone, right ?

It's a significant bound but utility has yet to be determined from testing performance and efficiency.

So if I understand current situation, and where we are in the cycle, sample chips were shipped to the many clients/manufacturers last week or yesterday. And also ASICminer is testing them. Questions are : Were the sample chips sent out for free?(Wasp, did you pay anything for samples? If yes, what was the price per Gh?). And meanwhile if AM is testing/hashing with them, where are they mining?

Well at this point I don't think we will see many payments to known asicminer addresses, probably the revenue will be sent the same day before sending dividends. Anyway we are still waiting for the last updated regarding chip specifications, so there will take some time for profits still I guess.

I imagine the sample chips were likely free for wasp and any other big designers. $100 worth of chips is worth giving away if that person comes back looking for 10,000 more

Yes, it means that tape-out was successful. A rough outline showing the importance of the news: https://asktom.cf/index.php?topic=99497.msg5968245#msg5968245

It might be a preproduction with a couple chips only. Its cheaper than producing a full production mask and you can check if the design works. The tape-out has to be done now if thats the case.

Please ALWAYS contact me through bitcointalk pm before sending someone coins.

For clarity... If the sample run is complete and the chips were tested and found to work, then by definition the tape-out happened weeks ago. "The tape-out has to be done now if thats the case" in this context means that it has to have already been done. Not that it's now time to do the tape-out. Sorry, was just confusing when I read your reply.

With 479 BTC/USD exchange rate we're looking at 0.01 - 0.1 dividend per share only from batch 1 (if everything is sold for 0.99$/Gh) so if you don't need or plan convert dividends to fiat, but you want to HODL, or reinvest, its good.
