Microbit, a number one innovator within the Bitcoin mining trade, launched its newest WhatsMiner M6XS+ collection on the Bitcoin 2024 convention in Nashville, Tennessee. Out there in air-cooled, water-cooled and immersion-cooled fashions, the brand new vary represents a leap ahead in renewable mining expertise.
Microbit founder and CEO Dr. Yang Zuoxing highlighted these developments in his keynote speech, emphasizing the corporate’s dedication to sustainable and environment friendly mining practices. Dr Younger stated renewable vitality mining is the way forward for the trade, with photo voltaic mining on the forefront. He predicts that by 2026, the price of electrical energy for photo voltaic mining might drop to about 4 cents per kilowatt-hour, which might take away a serious impediment to the photo voltaic mining trade.
Microbit has made important progress in its photo voltaic mining expertise, together with the profitable pilot of a 100-kilowatt venture. Dr. Yang introduced the upcoming launch of the WhatsMiner photo voltaic mining container system and referred to as on trade companions to collectively promote the superb growth of photo voltaic mining.
One of many new options of Shenma’s water-cooled mining machines is the excessive outlet water temperature, presently as much as 80°C (176°F). This permits for a wide range of thermal makes use of, comparable to agricultural heating, district heating and grid balancing. Microbit’s water cooling expertise is designed to offer the mining trade with options to cut back cooling sources whereas enhancing its competitiveness within the regenerative mining sector.
Dr. Yang additionally launched the most recent fashions in Shenma’s product lineup:
- Whatma M60S+ (air-cooled): The computing energy is as excessive as 210 TH/s and the ability effectivity is 17 J/T.
- WhatsMiner M63S+ (water-cooled): The computing energy is as excessive as 450 TH/s, the ability effectivity is 17 J/T, and the outlet water temperature can attain 70℃ (158℉).
- WhatsMiner M64 (water-cooled): The computing energy is as excessive as 206 TH/s, the ability effectivity is nineteen.9 J/T, and the outlet water temperature is as excessive as 80℃ (176℉).
- WhatsMiner M66S+ (immersion cooled): The computing energy is as excessive as 318 TH/s and the ability effectivity is 17 J/T.
Dr. Yang then promised to launch extra merchandise and options in spring 2025.
Following Dr. Yang’s keynote, Microbit’s Director of Gross sales and Advertising and marketing Wright Wang participated in a panel dialogue with Ghazaleh Barman of Riot Platforms and Niek Beudeker of Peak Mining (a part of Northern Information Group). The panel centered on collaborations from manufacturing to mining, with Wang noting that Riot has the biggest immersion cooling deployment on the planet, whereas Northern Information is getting ready for a large-scale water cooling deployment. These operations are primarily supported by WhatsMiner merchandise.
