Rutgers -- WAVX isn't trying to make money off of the "chip" (why the quotation marks?), they make money by taking a percentage of the revenue stream for every transaction that runs through the chip. The idea is for WAVX to make distribution of the chip very inexpensive. The number that has been out here on the boards is 3$ per chip in bulk. Anyway, if you want to run revenue numbers, take some e-commerce estimates and slice off a percentage. That's still pretty hard to do at such an early stage.
