MicroBT has just rolled out its latest M50 series of WhatsMiner miners.
Check out the announcement video:
Here are the specs for these machines:
WhatsMiner M53: 226TH/s, 29J/T, 6554W
WhatsMiner M50S: 126TH/s, 26J/T, 3276W
WhatsMiner M50: 114TH/s, 29J/T, 3306W
Take a closer look at the WhatsMiner M50S (the M50 is pretty much the same):
And here's a look at the WhatsMiner M53, which is the speed king:
They seem pretty cool for big mining operations, but not ideal for home setups with that power draw of over 6.5kW.
As for pricing, the M50S goes for around $11k and the M50 is about $9k, but both are sold out right now.

It's amazing how compact the M53 is and how much it can do. That will increase the hashrate enormously again.
I am very interested to see where this will go.
does the price follow the hashrate or the hashrate follow the price?
I hope the price of the hashrate, so I'm looking forward to the new miners, even if no private person can buy them to run mining himself at home.
Best regards

BITMAIN releases the best models so far
#BITMAIN has officially launched the ANTMINER S19 XP Hyd., an #ANTMINER hydro cooling miner with a hashrate of 255T, 5304W power consumption, and power efficiency of 20.8J/T.

Hmm, they went for a different design for the M53, that's interesting.
I wonder how flat that thing is in reality and how big it is, would be nice if it would fit old server racks without having to spend hundreds of thousands on the HK3 if you only have 5-10 machines.
No, it doesn't work like that.
Hash rate will always follow with a delay in the price when it goes up, the fact that hashrate has grown so much despite no real price movements it's mainly because we have more efficient chips and there is a lot of time between mining becoming profitable and enough gear being manufactured and delivered to balance things out. The delay is of course erased when the price drops like a bomb and miners realize they are operating at a loss and turning gear off.
What matters for miners is the daily revenue, the value of those on average 900 daily mined BTC plus fees that's what dictates everything.

Damn That water cooler unit can do as much as 10kwatts!

They want to promote it for greenhouse heat etc.
Whatsminer M30S++ 112 TH/s 31 J/T 3268 W
WhatsMiner M50 114 TH/s 29 J/T 3306 W

Whatsminer M30S++ looks better than the newer model in my opinion.

You know they try to squeeze a lot out of the psu's both of them would be better off at 2900 watts not 3268 or 3306 watts.
All the newer gear from bitmain cannon and microbe have Oem psu's that you have to use or the gear won't work and all the psu's push to the limit. PSu failure is common and getting replacement psu's is difficult.
Also a lot of the stock firmware does not allow for simple under clocking.
Nothing new but you would think that one of these companies would push a firmware that allows for 5 speeds or better. Much like braiins or vnish do.
As for the m50 vs the m30s++ it is bottom of the line new compared to top of the line old.
So not that fair to compare the m30s++ to the m50
the m50s is 126 at 26 watts. and that is pretty good compared to the m30s++ 112 and 31 watts
I have had most of my microbit gear fail not a real fan of them.
But the water block solution they have is a rack holding 15 servers and a cooling radiator. the unit will do 90 to 150 kwatts
the water block solution from bitmain is a container holding 200 units it will do 1 megawatt
I could swing the microbt at 150 kwatts maybe 2 of them but the bitmain need more power than I have 1 megawatt is more than the 800kwatts I have at the new site.
My guess is the bitmain gear (water block) might be more durable. I just wish it was in a smaller sized cooling setup maybe a 250kwatt sized complete system with 40 s19xp water units
I'm not a fan of ASICs because of the high energy consumption and noise, but then it turns out to be better to buy ASICs with separate power supplies, for quick replacement in case of a breakdown. I heard miners write very good reviews about Whatsminer M20 series.

they were decent but did not last for me.
