Recently, following Trump’s election as the 47th President of the United States, the Texas governor once again proclaimed an inspiring slogan: Texas is already the home of crypto mining. This session Texas should become the crypto capital! Texas often expresses its positive and friendly attitude towards the crypto industry. As early as 2022, a local government in Texas even prominently placed three mining machines in the government building to mine, demonstrating encouragement for the mining industry. In stark contrast to the government’s friendly stance on mining is the less mining-friendly climate of Texas. So, what kind of mining machine is more suitable for mining in extreme weather conditions?
Although miners are spread across the globe, not all countries encourage the crypto industry. In addition to friendly policies, suitable climate and low electricity costs are also extremely important. Interestingly, many countries with poor climates are often paradises for miners. For example, Ohio with large temperature differences between day and night, the Middle East where temperatures often exceed 40 degrees during the day, and Irkutsk where winter temperatures are often below -15°C. These regions with extreme climates often provide miners with secure mining policies and even cheap electricity. This has led many miners to migrate to these regions, which, despite their harsh climates, remain attractive due to their overall conditions.
Here, SC MINER recommends two highly regarded BTC ASICs for small and medium miners in extreme climates—the WHATSMINER M60 and WHATSMINER M50S. Miners in these areas have likely experienced the pain of low machine efficiency or even production halts due to extremely high or low temperatures. WHATSMINER has a very core technological advantage—its air-cooled machines can maintain normal operation at temperatures between -20°C and 80°C, keeping the chips dry and ensuring no loss in hash rate. This means the machines have a very low failure rate, requiring minimal effort for maintenance, no need to purchase additional parts to keep the machines in good condition, and no worry about machines automatically stopping work due to excessively high or low temperatures, pausing your earnings.
Let’s take a look at the parameters of these two machines: The M60 172T has a power of 3420W, producing about 0.00011008 BTC per day when the electricity cost is 6 cents. The shutdown price is about $44,000, and when the electricity cost is 2 cents, the shutdown price is about $15,000. The M50S 130T has a power of 3380W, producing about 0.00008320 BTC per day when the electricity cost is 6 cents. The shutdown price is about $57,000, and when the electricity cost is 2 cents, the shutdown price is about $20,000.
The WHATSMINER M60 172T and WHATSMINER M50S 130T can maintain good performance under extreme temperatures, which can save miners a lot of money and worry. They also have the advantages of low total cost and fast payback and low shutdown price. You are welcome to contact us for the latest spot/futures quotes!
