Bitdeer is utilizing TSMC for producing

Bitcoin mining equipment worth $60 million.


According to the publicly listed mining company Bitdeer, they are using Taiwan

Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) to manufacture their

  • Sealminer A1 mining platforms during the third quarter.
  • Bitdeer also disclosed that they mined 294 Bitcoins in March
  • marking a 28.4% increase compared to March 2023 profits.


Before the upcoming Bitcoin halving event

Bitdeer uses TSMC for their custom mining chips.

Following Bitdeer's announcement

they showcased their internally developed Application-Specific Integrated Circuit

(ASIC) with TSMC for the unique mining processor SEAL01.

TSMC :

  • established in 1987
  • company globally and plays a crucial role in the semiconductor sector.


Bitdeer reported that as of March 31st :

they had "committed orders for chipsets" from TSMC

  • anticipating that assembling these devices
  • will generate approximately $60 million in
  • revenue from Sealminer A1 mining equipment.


The company added that :

"this amount is subject to adjustment based on actual manufacturing expenses."

Previous disclosures from the company indicated that the electronic chip

for the Sealminer uses 4nm technology.


Linghui Kong :

Bitdeer's Chief Business Officer, commented:

"We mined 294 :

  1. Bitcoins in March in total
  2. representing a 2.4% increase
  3. from the previous month."


He further stated:

"As previously announced, our self-mining operations in our Jiedou data center

saw a decline in the first quarter due to seasonal electricity price increases.

However, we have secured a rate of approximately $0.0425 per kilowatt-hour

for Jiedou data center for the remainder of the year effective from April 1, 2024."


These updates come amidst a significant surge in ASIC purchases from Bitcoin

mining hardware manufacturers, including Canaan, Bitmain, and Microbt.

Additionally :

advancements continue to progress as Bitmain recently unveiled

a device featuring an efficiency of 15 joules per terahash (J/T).


Tens of thousands of ASICs have been provisioned in anticipation of the upcoming

fourth Bitcoin reward halving event, scheduled between April 18th and 20th, 2024
