Odaily Planet Daily News: Marathon's CEO stated that about half of this year's mining machine orders come from American Bitcoin chip designer and manufacturer Auradin. MARA is one of Auradin's earliest supporters. Auradin will begin shipping the Teraflux series of Bitcoin ASICs in mid-2024, positioning it as an American-made alternative to Chinese ASIC giants Bitmain and Canaan. Since U.S. President Trump announced new tariffs in April, Auradin has received a "large number of requests from U.S. mining companies looking to diversify their hardware equipment."
