Block Inc. Sells Its First 3nm Mining Chips to Core Scientific, Revolutionizing Bitcoin Mining Technology

Block Inc. (NYSE:SQ) has sold its first batch of three-nanometer (3nm) mining chips to Core Scientific Inc. (NASDAQ:CORZ) in a move that will significantly bolster Core Scientific's position in the Bitcoin mining industry.

The deal, which involves 15 exahashes per second (EH/s) of mining power, will propel Core to the forefront of companies adopting the latest mining technology, Block said in a statement on Wednesday.

The collaboration between Block and Core aims to improve the efficiency and scalability of Bitcoin mining operations.

“Our partnership with Block marks a new standard in the industry, providing substantial operational benefits and supporting the sustainability of the Bitcoin network,” said Russell Cann, chief development officer at Core.

The partnership comes as the Bitcoin mining industry awaits Benzinga's Future of Digital Assets event in November in New York City.

The event will feature a premier gathering of digital asset companies and institutional investors.

Attendees will engage with leaders from pioneering companies advancing Bitcoin mining technology, among other key industry segments.

With over 4,000 one-on-one meetings scheduled, the event will connect participants with the people and trends shaping the future of money.

Block's entry into the high-performance mining chip market is a major development in the Bitcoin mining industry.

By making advanced mining technology more accessible, Block aims to broaden participation in the mining process.

Jack Dorsey, co-founder and former CEO of Block, has expressed optimism that Bitcoin will reach $1 million by 2030, highlighting the transformative potential of collaborations like this one.

Following the announcement, Core shares rose 2.2% to close at $9.77, while Block stock saw a marginal decline, closing down 0.26% at $64.34.
