Intel Corporation, a computer chip manufacturer, revealed details of a new mining chip that would be paired with a high-performance 3,600 Watt miner with the purpose of increasing Bitcoin \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a>(BTC) mining efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the IEEE International Solid-State Circuits Conference (ISSCC) 2022, a conference dedicated to the electronics and chip manufacturing industries, Intel unveiled their second-generation BTC mining rig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bonanza mine (BMZ2), according to the business<\/a>, is an ultra-low-voltage energy-efficient Bitcoin mining ASIC with a performance of 40 Terahashes per second (40 TH\/s).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Intel's patent for “high-performance Bitcoin mining” was filed in November 2018, and it proposed a 15 percent reduction in overall power consumption. At the time, Intel executives expressed confidence in competing against established companies such as Bitmain, MicroBT, and Nvidia:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The BMZ2 chips are likely to have a similar design to its first-generation mining chip, the BMZ1, in which over 300 chips, each powered by a 3600W miner, collaborate to deliver up to 40TH\/s in a balanced environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Intel's next-generation BTC miner <\/a>will be capable of delivering a balanced performance of 40.4 TH\/s while consuming only 2,293W of power, resulting in a low energy usage of 56.97 joules per terahash (J\/Th).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, the hardware will be able to operate in high-performance and power-saving modes to maximize the energy-cost ratio across a range of mining efficiencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
