Why bitcoin mining chips continue to chase the most advanced processes

According to micro-network news, mining demand is slowing down. However, Bitcoin mining chips continue to pursue advanced processes and have now entered the 7nm generation.

Bitcoin and Ethereum mining chip features are different, the industry pointed out that computing power and power saving are the two key points of bitcoin mining chips, but also the main reason for Bitcoin mining chips to pursue the most advanced processes, in addition to requiring power saving , also pursue power, because you can not lose money, you still have to pay for electricity.

Bitcoin mining chips are estimated to advance process technology every one and a half years. At present, Bitcoin mining chips have been advanced to 7nm process technology, and the power and power saving are up to 40% higher than the 16nm process. The industry expects that this will Forced the mining machine with 28nm process mining chip to exit.

Bitcoin prices have fallen more than 40% this year, and the current price is about $7,400. The industry estimates that the manufacturers of self-operated mines are still profitable. For those who need to purchase minerals for mining, the willingness to purchase mining machines is May be affected.

Japan's GMO Network Group is the first to introduce a mining machine using 7nm mining chips, which is used for self-operated mines.

In terms of Ethylene, 28nm process technology can meet the demand for Ethylene mining chips. The industry pointed out that the tight supply of DDR3 is the biggest bottleneck for the current E-Chip mining chip. The DDR3 mastery will be the key to whether the relevant manufacturers can win. .
