The beating heart of the Bitaxe Gamma
Share
The BM1370 ASIC chip is a technological masterpiece in SHA-256 mining and sets new standards in efficiency and performance. As the heart of devices such as the Bitaxe Gamma, which we offer at Solomining, this chip enables performance that was unthinkable just a few years ago, without neglecting energy efficiency.
Key Technical Features of the BM1370
- Outstanding Performance: The BM1370 is designed for impressive hash rates. In the Solomining-optimized version of the Bitaxe Gamma, the chip achieves a hash rate of 1.30 TH/s. This is a significant increase over standard configurations and older models.
- Excellent energy efficiency: With an efficiency of only 15 J/TH (joules per terahash), the BM1370 is one of the most economical chips on the market. This means less power consumption for the same computing power – a decisive advantage for mining profitability.
- Advanced 5nm process: Manufacturing using a 5-nanometer process makes it possible to integrate more transistors into a smaller area. The result is not only higher performance, but also lower heat generation, which improves the cooling and overall stability of the miner.
- Optimized temperature management: Even under high load and overclocking, the BM1370 remains thermally stable thanks to its design and in combination with high-quality cooling solutions. Our “Made in Germany” manufacturing ensures that the cooling is perfectly matched to the higher performance.
Applications in SHA-256 Bitcoin mining devices
Although the BM1370 was originally designed for the Bitmain Antminer S21 Pro, it unleashes its full potential in the open-source project Bitaxe Gamma.
- Bitaxe Gamma (Solomining Edition): Equipped with a BM1370 chip, this miner offers the perfect balance of performance and efficiency for solo and pool miners. Thanks to our optimizations and high-quality manufacturing in Germany, it is the ideal choice for anyone who values reliability and maximum performance.
- Bitmain Antminer S21 Pro: In these large devices, the BM1370 ensures a high hashrate while reducing power consumption, making it a key component for mining farms.
Is the BM1370 ASIC chip worth it?
For solo miners who participate in “lottery mining” on pools such as pool.solomining.de, the calculation is simple: with minimal electricity costs, you have the chance to win the full block reward every ~10 minutes. The Bitaxe Gamma with the BM1370 is the perfect tool for this – a piece of decentralized future, powered by open-source technology.
Investing in a miner with a BM1370 chip is a decision for state-of-the-art high-end hardware, especially in an environment of increasing mining difficulty. The open-source potential of the Bitaxe project also fosters a growing community that is constantly working to optimize firmware and software.
Conclusion
The BM1370 ASIC chip is a milestone. It offers an unbeatable combination of performance, efficiency, and compact design. Its potential is fully exploited in the German-made version of the Bitaxe Gamma offered by Solomining. It is the ideal tool for anyone who wants to remain competitive in the demanding Bitcoin mining environment.
