Canaan launches new mining machine A1146Pro and will soon launch A1166Pro

Recently, Canaan's official website launched the latest A11 series mining machine A1146Pro, which is one of the main models in the flood season. In an interview with Binance, Canaan Senior Vice President Lu Xiaoming said that two models with high computing power and low power consumption will be launched soon, namely A1146Pro and A1166Pro.

A1146Pro has a computing power of 63T and an energy efficiency ratio of 52J/TH. In terms of computing power, this machine is far behind the main models of Shenma M30S and Ant S19. The specific price has not yet been announced. The outside world is more looking forward to A1166Pro. After all, 1166 has an energy efficiency ratio of 46J/TH, and the Pro version should be between 40-45, or even lower than 40, which can compete with Shenma M30S.

At present, the A1166Pro has not appeared on the official website. The new machine A1166, which was misreported by the media, was actually released as early as October last year. The machines released at that time included the A1166 with a rated computing power of 68T/S and an energy consumption ratio of 46J/T. The A1146 has a rated computing power of 56T/S and an energy consumption ratio of 57J/T. However, the miners did not seem to receive these two machines later and canceled the reservation. It is suspected that the technical research and development encountered certain obstacles.

The newly released A1146Pro is an evolutionary and repaired version of the A1146, with improved computing power and energy efficiency. Canaan Chairman Zhang Nangeng said in a conference call on the first quarter earnings report on the evening of May 22 that the first product 1066Pro using platform design has been launched, and the new product A1146 Pro will also be launched soon. He also said that tens of thousands of mining machines have been produced using Samsung 8nm chips, which should be the A1146Pro and A1166Pro.

Canaan's stock price recently fell to a record low of $2.12 before rebounding. Wu said that blockchain had exclusively disclosed that Fidelity and other US investment funds were continuing to buy, which would help the stock price rebound. But in the final analysis, the competitiveness of a mining machine company still depends on its products. Whether the performance of A1166Pro can achieve better breakthroughs remains to be seen.
