Bitcoin mining rig manufacturers are releasing next generation gear which is up to 29% more efficient than previous models. For the past two years, the most efficient machines ran at 29.5 J/TH. New models will run as low as 20.8 J/TH.

The maximum terahasing power of a SHA-256 miner will also increase by up to 128%, from 112 to 255 TH/s. These engineering feats were achieved thanks to the adoption of TSMC and Samsung 5nm microprocessor chips.

Bitmain Antimer:

At the moment last gen. S19s are for spot order on Bitmain’s website, with a maximum of 50 units. All other machines are available for bulk order with longer lead times.

Bitmain are still fulfilling backorders from 2021,

Bitmain Hydro Mining Containers:

The container costs a cool $110,000, and with 210 units the total comes in at three million dollars.

Hydro containers can withstand exterior temperatures of -25 to 40 degrees Celsius (-13 F to 104 F) because the system maintains fluid temperatures through a central chamber/tower. Containers have other fancy features like mist cooling for summer and air-cooled miner heat recirculation for winter.

MicroBT WhatsMiner:

The company’s next generation models employ Samsung 5nm chips, and the M50S will deliver around 15% higher efficiency than the M30S++.

Yet, due to backorders, the chip shortage, and Covid, machines are not in stock.

Canaan Avalon:

Canaan is the only mining equipment company with a multi-foundry strategy. They have partnerships with TSMC, Samsung, and SMIC, and also make their own AI chips.

Whilst they continue to fulfill a backlog of customer orders, they have yet not released any next gen. models. The machines offered on their website use 7/8nm SMIC and Samsung chips.

Since January 2021, Canaan have also made immersion cooling solutions.

Intel Mining ASICs:

To estimate what an Intel miner spec would be, we can take one chain of 256 chips * 580 GH/s = 148,480 GH/s. This converts to a potential of around 148 TH/s per unit, at 3848W, and 26 J/TH. Pretty impressive.

Intel will only work with companies that align with their ESG goals.

KOI and iPollo:

KOI Miner recently released SHA-256 machines. They have four different C16 models available on their website, ranging from 86-112 TH/s, with efficiencies as low as 29.5 J/TH. Models are available on a limited basis.

iPollo advertise that a second iteration, the B1, will be coming soon. The B1 will have specs up to 100 TH/s and 29.5 J/TH, putting it on par with the Antminer S19 Pro and Whatsminer M30S++.
