A bitcoin miner with a power of 10,000 TH/s is currently unimaginable. But BlockForge felt it was time to speed things up, or push the limits. Anyway, it’s a monster miner a must-see for visitors at the entrance to Mining Disrupt 2022.
The Blockforge miner, a 10,000 TH per second juggernaut
If this bitcoin mining device is not the most powerful the world has ever seen, it must be admitted that it is disproportionately large. Showcased by BlockForge at the 2022 edition of the Mining Disrupt conference, this massive bitcoin miner is said to have caught the attention of the public.
BlockForge, who tweeted 5 days before the launch of the event about the launch of the big package, did not fail to put his name on it.
” The 10,000 TH/S miner ready to launch! We are preparing for @MiningDisrupt with the miner monster set. »
As a reminder, Mining Disrupt 2022 is an event including demonstrations of bitcoin mining devices and conferences organized by Jsbit.com in Miami, between July 26 and 28. Enterprise solutions, blockchain technologies and novel terms were highlighted mining of cryptocurrency. For your information, the prices of pass for this 4e Disruption Mining varies between 599 (General Pass) and 12,999 dollars (VIP-Pass + VIP table for groups).
Then, regarding BlockForge, note that it is an American distributor of bitcoin miners and cryptocurrencies. His specialty extends from the sale of GPU, ASIC, Hash type devices, to the marketing of related accessories. In addition to these products, the company is also known for its training and seminars for technology enthusiasts.
What about the current range of devices?
By September, the Ethereum ecosystem will get rid of its miners due to the Merge, which symbolizes the transition from PoW to PoS. As for bitcoin, change is not yet on the agenda. So mining like bitcoin miners will not disappear in the near future.
As a reminder, the mining as part of a process of creating new bitcoin coins (or cryptocurrencies) and verifying new transactions. According to Go Banking Rates, this process relies on decentralized networks of well-equipped computers located around the world. By contributing to this system, miners are entitled to cryptocurrency rewards.
As for BTC mining devices, there are a variety of them on the market. Among the most popular are the AntMiner from Bitmain, the AvalonMiner from Canaan, the M30 and M31 from WhatsMiner or the VI/B1/G1 from iPollo. In addition, their prices can fluctuate between 299 to more than 25,000 dollars.
Apart from that, recently, we noticed the Antminers S19 XP ASIC from Bitmain which was bought by Marathon in large quantities last December. With a generation capacity of 140 TH/s, these devices mining Bitcoin prices start at $11,000 on the Bitmain site.
As for the S19 Pro + Hydro, which has a maximum hashrate of 198 TH/s, it is said to be very energy intensive, with a consumption of 27.5 watts per TH. The price is about 16,000 dollars.
And referring to monster miner from BlockForge, we will agree that the Antminer S19 Pro + Hydro, is far from reaching his ankle. We can also imagine how much energy this juggernaut will consume, about 250,000 watts. If BlockForge doesn’t produce very convincing energy demonstrations, this 10,000 TH/s device will be used to spark new ecological debates among coinless people.
