The largest manufacturer of mining equipment Bitmain will release a new model of ASIC miner with a capacity 150 Th / s. The device will be named Antminer S19XP.
As reports The Block with reference to sources, Familiar with the situation, The new miner will be built on chips last generation from TSMC, executed according to the process 5 nm. This will make the device more efficient and powerful. With general hashrate in 150 Tx/s Antminer S19xp will consume 3.1 kWh, In this case, the effectiveness of the device will be 21.5 J/tx.
The presentation of the new miner will take place this week at the exhibition in Dubai, And the delivery of devices should begin from July to September next year. Wherein, According to The Block source, The company has already introduced a new Miner model to its most important customers.
The preparation of Antminer S19XP was also reported by a Chinese journalist in the field of cryptocurrencies Colin Wu (Colin Wu), but, According to him, the miner power consumption will be 3 225 Tue.
Currently, the most powerful model in the line of ASIC Mainers Bitmain-Antminer S19 Pro. These miners are built on chips with a process 7 nm and provide a hashrate in 110 Th / c, Moreover, energy consumption is also about 3.1 kWh. In this way, The new model will be approximately on 35% more effective.
Note, that now there is a significant lack of semiconductor plates, used for the release of chips. Against this background, most American companies reported significant delays in equipment supply.
