Actually, they are not. The article indicated that the experiment had been going for 166 days (164 days, but it was written two days ago). $10.99/500K=$0.00002198 per cubelet. 0.00002198 X 18.46M total cubelets sold = $405. $405/166 = $2.43/day.

The experiment has been running for a few months yes, but like I said, the feature to add or remove cubelets is new for version 3.0, released on April 17th. Check the Eurogamer article I linked to (also linked in the original article).

Originally you could only remove cubelets. Adding them back is a new thing.
