⚡️ Mining on the Brink: Bitmain Radically Cuts ASIC Miner Prices at the End of 2025
The mining industry is experiencing a challenging period. Leading manufacturer Bitmain has resorted to radical measures, selling off hardware at "crisis" prices due to record-low hashprice and weak demand.
📉 What's Happening with Hardware Prices?
An analysis of price lists from late December 2025 is shocking:
S19 Series (Previous Generation): Prices have plummeted to a record low of $3–$4 per TH/s. This is significantly below the initial launch prices.S21 Series (Flagships): Even the new energy-efficient models are getting cheaper. The S21 Immersion model is now valued at around $7 per TH/s, and the S21+ Hydro is approximately $8 per TH/s.
🏗 Shift in Strategy: From Sales to Services
To survive the BTC correction, Bitmain is moving towards integrated solutions:
Global Hosting: Offering equipment hosting in the company's data centers (USA, Kazakhstan, Brazil, Paraguay, Ethiopia).Competitive Electricity: Tariffs for clients range from 5.5 to 7 cents per kWh, helping miners maintain some level of margin.
🔍 Why Is This Happening?
Peak Difficulty: The network hashrate remains at all-time highs, requiring only the most powerful hardware to be profitable.Profit Erosion: The correction in the BTC price has "eaten into" miner margins.Inventory Clearance: Bitmain aims to clear warehouses of excess stock before entering 2026.
The ASIC market is currently a buyer's market. Pressure from the secondary market and intense competition with MicroBT and Canaan are forcing the industry giant to aggressively cut prices.
Would you buy a miner at these prices, or do you think profitability won't return? 👇
