Digital asset technology company BGIN Blockchain Limited, listed on Nasdaq, announced that its BT1 Bitcoin mining ASIC chip has successfully achieved 4-nanometer (4nm) tape-out, marking a major milestone in the development of its proprietary mining hardware for Bitcoin. Tape-out represents a critical stage in semiconductor development where the chip design is finalized and sent to fabrication. Following this milestone, the BT1 chip has moved into system-level testing and production preparation before commercial deployment in mining machines.
The BT1 is BGIN’s first proprietary ASIC specifically designed for Bitcoin mining. The company also highlighted that this marks its seventh consecutive successful ASIC tape-out since 2022, demonstrating consistent execution in advanced chip development.
Management stated that the BT1 project reflects BGIN’s strategic shift from altcoin-focused mining operations toward mainstream Bitcoin mining infrastructure. The company has also begun early work on next-generation chip architectures aimed at improving energy efficiency and mining performance. $BTC $BGIN $BNB #Bitcoin #CryptoMining #ASIC #Blockchain #CryptoNews
