Bitmain has discounted multiple rigs including the Antminer S19 and S21 and is offering select bundle deals where buyers can name their own price, a sign of pressure from a falling hashprice. The move underscores stress in miner economics as revenue per TH/s declines.
Bloomberg reports U.S. authorities are investigating Bitmain for potential national security risks tied to alleged remote-access capabilities in its Bitcoin mining hardware. The probe could increase scrutiny on mining supply chains and U.S.–China tech ties.
