🥇 Top ASIC miners

📘 The most important terms in Bitcoin mining

Hashrate (TH/s)

Indicates how many trillion computational operations a miner performs per second. The higher the number, the more powerful.

Efficiency (J/TH)

Energy consumption per terahash. The lower the value, the more efficient the device is.

Mining pool

Merging several miners – increases yield stability, even for smaller plants.

ASIC miner

Specialized high-performance computer for mining. Optimized for maximum efficiency and continuous operation.

Halving

Every ~4 years the mining yield (BTC per block) is halved – important for long-term planning.

Heat utilization

Waste heat generated during mining can be used for heating, drying or process heat, for example.

Wallet

Digital wallet for secure storage of Bitcoin.

Difficulty

Mining difficulty – automatically adapts to the network.
