MicroBT, the bitcoin ASIC maker behind WhatsMiner chain of ASIC mining machines, unveiled its latest offerings at Bitcoin 2023 in Miami Beach. MicroBT founder and CEO Dr. Zuoxing Yang highlighted the importance of “high density, low noise, low failure rate and low maintenance” ASIC machines ushering bitcoin mining into a new era.
The conversation began with a roll of the film focusing on the energy crisis, green energy and the role that bitcoin could play as a solution. This again raised the question: “What matters more, mining or living?”
“I never stop thinking about better power solutions for bitcoin mining,” said Dr. Yang.
MicroBT introduces three new models to the WhatsMiner M50 series: the air-cooled M50S++, the hydro-cooled M53S++, and the immersion-cooled M56S++. These models deliver impressive computing power from 150 to 320 terahash/second (TH/s) respectively, with a capacity of 22 joules per terahash (J/TH).
Dr. Yang highlighted the heat collection capabilities of mining rigs, which can be used for a variety of purposes, such as space heating and industrial processes. He noted that hydro-cooling mining rigs can reach outlet water temperatures of more than 70 ℃ (158 ℉), providing 2.4MW of power for a 40-foot container. Additionally, the immersion-cooling solution requires only 10 liters of oil per miner, demonstrating its efficiency.
He insisted that “each M56 miner only needed 10L of oil with our specified tank.”
MicroBT’s focus since its founding in 2016 has been the development of high-efficiency bitcoin mining rigs. The company aims to support miners in adhering to the decentralization principles of bitcoin while prioritizing network stability. Dr. Yang emphasized MicroBT’s commitment to working with partners to promote sustainable mining practices, zero-carbon emissions and social responsibility.
