On September 22, Bitmain rolled out its next-generation Antminer S21 and S21 Hydro ASIC miners at the World Digital Mining Summit (WDMS) in Hong Kong
Bitmain, the world’s leading manufacturer of digital currency mining, introduced its latest Antminer models, the S21 and S21 Hydro ASIC miners, at the World Digital Mining Summit (WDMS) in Hong Kong. This event served as a platform for Bitcoin miners to discuss strategies for improving productivity with a focus on sustainable practice.
The S21 boasts a hash rate of 200 TH/s and an efficiency of 17.5 J/T, while the S21 Hydro achieves 335 TH/s with an efficiency of 16 J/T. This is noteworthy because, until recently, most Bitcoin ASICS (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) consumed over 20 J/T. The next generation of Antminers will improve efficiency and reduce energy consumption for miners while increasing their profits.
