Core Scientific 成為首個區塊合作夥伴，將獲得 15 EH/s 的新型比特幣挖礦晶片

Core Scientific 是美國最大的比特幣挖礦和託管供應商之一，它與金融服務公司 Block 合作，成為第一家接收其新型 3nm 比特幣挖礦晶片的公司。

Core Scientific, a major U.S.-based bitcoin mining and hosting provider, has partnered with Block, a leading financial services firm, in a project to integrate the first 3nm bitcoin mining chips produced by the latter.

美國主要比特幣挖礦和託管供應商 Core Scientific 與領先的金融服務公司 Block 合作進行了一個項目，整合後者生產的首款 3nm 比特幣挖礦晶片。

Core Scientific will be the first to receive Block’s new bitcoin mining chips, with an order of 15 exahash per second (EH/s) of the mining ASIC chips, and the possibility of ordering additional silicon if needed.

Core Scientific 將成為第一家接收 Block 新型比特幣挖礦晶片的公司，其挖礦 ASIC 晶片的訂單量為每秒 15 exahash (EH/s)，如果需要，還可以訂購額外的晶片。

Core Scientific to Receive First Batch of Block’s 3nm Bitcoin Mining Chips, at 15 EH/s

Core Scientific 將接收第一批 Block 的 3nm 比特幣挖礦晶片，速度為 15 EH/s

Core Scientific, one of the largest bitcoin mining and hosting providers in the United States, has partnered with Block, a financial services firm, to be the first recipient of their new 3nm bitcoin mining chips. The disclosed agreement entails the delivery of 15 EH/S (exahash per second) of hash rate in these new Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs), which were designed in-house by the Proto team at Block.

Core Scientific 是美國最大的比特幣挖礦和託管供應商之一，它與金融服務公司 Block 合作，成為其新型 3nm 比特幣挖礦晶片的第一個接收者。所揭露的協定需要在這些新的專用積體電路 (ASIC) 中提供 15 EH/S（每秒 exahash）的哈希率，這些電路是由 Block 的 Proto 團隊內部設計的。

As part of this deal, Core Scientific is working with Block to develop a modular platform with the involvement of Epic Blockchain technologies. According to statements from Block, this modular approach aims to “simplify infrastructure demands and optimize the use of space and operational resources within data centers such as those operated by Core Scientific.”

作為交易的一部分，Core Scientific 正在與 Block 合作開發一個涉及 Epic 區塊鏈技術的模組化平台。根據 Block 的聲明，這種模組化方法旨在“簡化基礎設施需求並優化資料中心（例如由 Core Scientific 運營的資料中心）內的空間和營運資源的使用。”

Furthermore, this design will enable the reuse of non-ASIC components and ensure compatibility with the existing hardware stack. With this launch, Block aims to decentralize the bitcoin mining ASIC market, opening the door for third parties to develop their solutions and integrate their chips into these new designs.

此外，這種設計將實現非 ASIC 元件的重複使用，並確保與現有硬體堆疊的兼容性。透過此次發布，Block 旨在分散比特幣挖礦 ASIC 市場，為第三方開發解決方案並將其晶片整合到這些新設計中打開大門。

Thomas Templeton, lead of the Proto team at Block, said:

Block Proto 團隊負責人 Thomas Templeton 表示：

“By adopting this approach, we aim to foster innovation and significantly expand the bitcoin mining hardware ecosystem. We are excited to see more projects of different types and sizes become possible with access to our vertically integrated hardware systems.”

「透過採用這種方法，我們的目標是促進創新並顯著擴展比特幣挖礦硬體生態系統。我們很高興看到更多不同類型和規模的項目通過使用我們的垂直整​​合硬體系統而成為可能。

This suggests that other third-party designs might be able to incorporate these chips in the future.

這表明其他第三方設計將來可能能夠整合這些晶片。

The partnership also enables Core Scientific to request more of these chips in “significant volume,” and it marks one of the largest agreements of this nature in hashrate.

此次合作也使 Core Scientific 能夠「大量」請求更多此類晶片，這標誌著算力領域最大的此類協議之一。
