In the global cryptocurrency mining sector, traditional mining farms are facing numerous challenges.
From the perspective of electricity costs, the electricity cost for a single Bitcoin, calculated at $0.07 per kWh for coal power, has exceeded $20,000, severely eroding miners' profits due to high electricity prices.
On the policy front, measures such as power restrictions in Russia, taxation in the United States, and carbon taxes in the European Union have caused compliance costs to soar by 30%, turning mining farms into "sacrificial pawns" of policy support.
Furthermore, the construction of traditional mining farms takes 3-6 months, while the iteration cycle for mining machines is only 12 months, meaning that newly launched operations may face technological obsolescence almost immediately, making the lengthy construction time a significant nightmare.
The emergence of the MinerPower integrated water-cooled container directly addresses these three major pain points, aiming to usher cryptocurrency mining into the new energy era.
First, the "zero electricity cost" brings about a fuel revolution. The cost of standard natural gas power generation is approximately $0.02 - $0.03 per kWh. If utilizing associated gas and waste resources from oil fields, the fuel cost can be nearly $0 per kWh. For instance, in Siberia and Tyumen, Russia, processing 120 million cubic meters of associated gas annually results in zero electricity costs, saving over $8.4 million in electricity expenses each year.
Secondly, it boasts rapid deployment advantages, using modular prefabrication. The MinerPower-D500WF can be installed on-site with 96 BITMAIN-S19XP+hyd water-cooled mining machines and be operational within ≤3 days, accelerating the construction process by 60 times compared to traditional mining farms. It can also adapt to various special environments and can evacuate restricted areas within 48 hours.
Thirdly, intelligent operation and maintenance bring the failure rate close to zero. The LINKPlant platform can monitor over 10,000 equipment parameters in real-time, with a fault self-check response time of less than 50ms. Only 2 people are needed for the operation and maintenance of 10MW, and it features patented anti-freezing technology for extreme cold conditions in Siberia at -50℃, allowing for a cold start ignition in 7 seconds and continuous operation for 360 days without failure. In the high temperatures of Nigeria at +50℃, water cooling circulation and micro-channel heat dissipation keep chip temperature fluctuations within ≤2℃, with a failure rate of less than 0.5%.
In terms of cost comparison, the construction cost of traditional mining farms (only the farm) for 1MW ranges from $360,000 to $600,000, while MinerPower (farm + self-generating power plant) costs only $150,000 to $300,000. The electricity price for the former is $0.07, while the latter is $0.025, with deployment cycles being vastly different.
Globally, MinerPower has demonstrated its strong capabilities in actual operations. The 20MW air-cooled mining farm on the Benue River in Nigeria has a failure rate of 0.3% at high temperatures of 50℃, reducing operation and maintenance costs by 40%. In Yakutia, Russia, under extreme cold conditions of -50℃, the online rate of mining machines reaches 99.7%.
MinerPower can not only be used for Bitcoin mining but can also be switched to AI training with one click (compatible with NVIDIA HGX H100 clusters), improving computing power utilization by 30%. Its goal is to deploy 1000MW globally by 2026, capturing 5% of Bitcoin's computing power, becoming a green computing power pillar supported by new self-generating energy, and leading computing infrastructure into a new future.
