TSMC received orders from Bitmain to produce chips using 5nm technology

TSMC has won an order from Bitmain and will use the 5nm process technology to produce chips for Bitmain for cryptocurrency mining. Production began in the third quarter.

Bitmain will soon release an Antminer E9 Ethereum (ETH) mining machine with a hash rate of 3GH/s, an energy consumption ratio of 0.85J/M, and power of 2556W. Officially, the computing power of this mining machine is equivalent to 32 RTX 3080 graphics cards, or 25 RTX 3090 graphics cards.

However, due to the current global semiconductor production capacity is tight, the chip production capacity of Bitmain Antminer E9 will also be very limited. If TSMC supports it, the output of this mining machine will be increased.
