BGIN Blockchain Limited Reaches Critical Milestone in Bitcoin Mining Machine Development
Scheduled for a Q1 2026 launch, the BT1 Series, featuring advanced ASIC technology, marks the company’s entry into Bitcoin mining.
SINGAPORE, Oct. 23, 2025 — BGIN Blockchain Limited (“BGIN” or “The Company”), a digital asset technology firm renowned for its proprietary cryptocurrency mining technologies and innovation in mining hardware and infrastructure, today announced a significant achievement in the development of its pioneering BT1 series mining machines, specifically engineered for Bitcoin. Set to debut in early 2026, this new series signals BGIN’s strategic expansion into the Bitcoin market, building on its extensive background in ASIC chip design and alternative cryptocurrency mining solutions.
BT1 Tape-out Initiative
BGIN has successfully completed the design and simulation validation for its cutting-edge Bitcoin mining machine, the BT1 model. Following confirmation with its foundry partner, the ASIC chip has now officially advanced to the tape-out stage, a crucial step in chip development. Tape-out signifies a pivotal transition from the design phase to physical manufacturing within the overall chip development process. Since 2022, the Company has a proven track record, having successfully completed six tape-outs for ASIC mining chip designs.
Advanced Technology and Progress
The BT1 series will utilize BGIN’s proprietary ASIC chips, developed by its globally distributed research and development team. This team, under the leadership of Chief Technology Officer Qi Shao, possesses deep expertise in both blockchain technology and electronics development.
Building upon the success of BGIN’s recently introduced KS7 model, which achieved an internal test hash rate of up to 30 TH/s—effectively doubling the performance of previous models—the BT1 series is projected to offer industry-leading efficiency and performance for Bitcoin mining operations.
Expanded Product Portfolio
The BT1 series will become part of BGIN’s growing portfolio of proprietary ICERIVER® mining solutions, which includes:
- KS Series.
- AL Series.
- RX Series.
- AE Series.BL1 Series.
“The creation of our BT1 series marks a significant juncture in BGIN’s growth trajectory,” stated Allen Wu, Chief Executive Officer at BGIN Blockchain Limited. “By applying our established expertise in ASIC chip design to Bitcoin mining, we are confident in our ability to deliver highly efficient Bitcoin mining solutions, a confidence further reinforced by our successful tape-out.”
