Intro
In a major breakthrough for blockchain and computing, Bitdeer (NASDAQ: BTDR) has introduced its first crypto mining chip, SEAL01. Made with advanced 4nm technology, SEAL01 impresses with its energy efficiency of 18.1J/TH in tests.
This innovative chip is a big step forward in crypto mining. It will be perfectly fitted into Bitdeer’s next mining machine, SEALMINER A1, setting new standards for mining efficiency and opening new possibilities for miners everywhere.
4nm AISC hits the market
So far, Bitmain’s Antminer S21 and Whatsminer M66 series are noted as top-tier ASIC mining hardware for their high hash rates, though their incredibly power efficiencies.
Based on the information gathered, here’s a summary table of some notable BTC ASIC miners focusing on their technology, hash rate, power consumption, and power efficiency:
| Miner Model | Manufacturer | Power Efficiency | Hash Rate | Power Consumption |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SEAMLMINER A1 | BitDeer | 18.1 J/TH | UnKnown | Unknown |
| Antminer S21 | Bitmain | 17.5J/T | 200TH/S | 3550w |
| Whatsminer M66 | MicroBT | 19.9J/T | 280TH/S | 5572w |
| Whatsminer M66S | MicroBT | 18J/T | 298TH/S | 5513w |
| Avalon A1466 | Canaan | 21.5J/T | 150TH/S | 3230w |
Actually, the first mining hardware developed by BitDeer can compete with those famous manufacturers. Although specific information on hashrate and power consumption is not yet available, from the chip specifications, it’s clear that Bitdeer’s 4nm chip is ahead of the market by nearly 15%. The power efficiency ratio of ASIC chips will decisively influence the performance of mining machines and mining profits.This also means that, under the same electricity price conditions, mining costs will be 15% lower than those of other machines.
The SEAL01 chip delivers enhanced Bitcoin mining performance with minimal power consumption, thus lowering operating costs and reducing the environmental footprint of miners. The SEAL01 chip will be seamlessly integrated into the upcoming mining device, SEALMINER A1.
Miner Specification Predictions
Although the detailed hashrate of SEALMiner is not clear yet, we can deduce it through the basic information of the mining machine.
Miners typically come with a power supply that boasts a maximum rated capacity of 4000W. To enhance safety and reliability during operations, manufacturers usually limit the power to about 70-80% of this maximum, leading to a safer operating level of around 3200W. This safety margin is vital for preventing power overloads and ensuring the longevity of the mining equipment.
Additional insights into the operational aspects of these devices indicate an inherent extra power consumption by the miner itself, estimated between 5-10%. This extra consumption covers the energy used by the device for functions outside of the core mining process, such as cooling and system control. Utilizing the SEAL01 chip’s efficiency of 18.1J/TH, through detailed analysis and reverse engineering, we can approximate the operational hashrate and power consumption range for the SEALMiner. With these efficiency metrics and the specified operational power limit, the SEALMiner’s performance is estimated to lie within a remarkable range of 170T-180T, underlining the device’s superior efficiency and energy management will be 3200W.
This calculation not only underscores the SEALMiner’s prowess but also reflects the sophisticated engineering and strategic design underpinning Bitdeer’s latest entry in the highly competitive cryptocurrency mining sector.
SEALMINER Launch Plan
Contrary to market expectations, Bitdeer’s first batch of miners will be sold in a presale format, with details of the sale below.
- Priority Purchase Payment: For every $0.99 paid, you unlock the priority right to purchase one SEALMINER.
- Shipping Order: The shipping order will be determined by the date of receipt of full payment.
- Purchase Credit: You will receive a $100 purchase credit.
- Non-refundable, Transferable: The $0.99 paid to unlock the priority purchase right is non-refundable, but the order can be transferred before final payment is completed and shipment is confirmed.
- Partial Exercise of Purchase Right: The priority of the purchase right can be partially exercised, used as needed.
- Estimated Shipping Time: Shipping is expected to start in August.
These terms provide financial and logistical arrangements for purchasing the SEALMINER, ensuring purchasers’ priority rights to the product and some flexibility during the purchase process. We have reason to believe that Bitdeer will place the first batch of machines in its own mining farms for mining as cloud computing power, to monitor the initial machines’ online status and product quality.This marks Wu Jihan’s first miner appearance since leaving Bitmain, showcasing his cautious yet bold business style.
