The main goals we set when we design our MMUs are:
- Mobility and scalability
- Maintenance convenience;
- Decentralized design — possibility to adapt to fit the most efficient cryptocurrency miners in the market.
- Creating financially viable solution.
Previously we compared the previous generation .
Recap of bitcoin mining gear technological development since then.
In October 2018 Bitfury released their and / Bitfury Tardis servers with efficiency of 83 J/TH.
In November 2018 Bitmain (the biggest manufacturer of ASIC miners) — Antminer S11, T15, S15 that implements their at the time newest 7NM chips (BM1391).
In February 2019 Bitmain (BM1397) with plan to launch Antminer T17 and S17 models.
As of March 2019 the actual model from the Bitfury is Bitfury Tardis, however, from Bitmain, it’s Antminer S15, therefore we will include these numbers in the further assumptions and calculations.
Let’s compare the solutions!
Disclaimer: Bitfury haven’t publicly announced their miner / container solution pricing.
However, in Nov. 12, 2018 the latest (as of March 18, 2019) , where the purchase price for 12 new BlockBoxes were mentioned as US$13,000,000, therefore an estimate of US$1,083,000 per BlockBox is assumed, which we include in the comparison with Power ASIC-224.
The table shows that in order to produce an equal amount of hash at both facilities, the Bitfury’s BlockBox consumes almost half (45%) more power (359kW vs 521kW) and costs 147% more ($513k) than Power ’s MMU ($207k).
If you are located in the Northern America, then Bitfury products is not even an option for you– due the , the BlockBox or Tardis servers can’t be purchased and delivered in the North American market.
As well with the Power MMUs you are not only limited to with SHA-256 miners. You decide what crypto miners you want to use!
