Antminer S19 Pro+ Hyd from Bitmain, the superhero of bitcoin miners? Free: receive your complete PDF guide

What is your super power? – Legend has it that Bitmain replied “I am rich” in a deep, resonant voice. And with the announcement of his new minor, you may be able to become one too.

Bitmain and Robin versus bitcoin!

If the specifications announced by Bitmain are accurate, its new production will be the most powerful to date. We will have to expand the hall of the Justice League, because the newcomer will be hefty.

The hash rate, defined in hashes per second, measures the mining power of a computer (or in this case an Antminer). The higher this rate, the more calculations the machine will perform per second. And the youngest from Bitmain will be able to perform as many calculations per second as a Flash on ecstasy.

Indeed Bitmain has decided to send heavy. The hashrate of its current highest model is 140 TH/s. With its Antminer S19 Pro+ Hyd (a bit long as a superhero name), Bitmain announces 198 TH/s, an increase of more than 41%.

In addition, determined to play on the Aquaman field, the manufacturer has equipped this new model with the latest liquid cooling technology. No more fans and hot air to evacuate! Everything is managed by a hydraulic circuit which takes care of evacuating the heat.

Is the design of the system inspired by one of Gotham's greatest vigilante enemies? It's more than likely.

Bitmain, the challenge! But at what price?

Apart from the fact that the price (not yet announced) may make Bruce Wayne shudder in person, another of the characteristics of the Antminer is already starting to pose a problem. Indeed, Bitmain announces a ready power consumption of 4450 W. And at a time when bitcoin is being talked about, day after day, for its possible environmental impact, this announcement is struggling to pass. Many people on Twitter have already expressed their concern about the energy-intensive side of Antminer's new model. The negative image that sticks to bitcoin may not improve.

Designed to be stored in blocks of 210 units, the total consumption of a storage unit would be more than 934 kW, the equivalent of the consumption of Cyborg in the middle of a game of chess with Wonderwoman. Some would say that's huge. Others that the energy used can be completely green (for bitcoin, not for Cyborg).

But with this machine, there is no doubt that Bitmain will continue to attract the attention of people who believe that the ecological impact of Bitcoin is catastrophic.

How will Bitmain handle this aspect? Is this a real problem for her? Will his newborn's abilities to make Superman swoon overshadow this point about consumption?

As the major of the masked man likes to say:

Anyway, if bitcoin mining is your passion, you can buy the new Antminer from May. But before investing, ask yourself the only real question a superhero should ask: does he exist in black?
