The production of Bitcoin mining hardware in the U.S. is growing in response to changing trade conditions and rising interest in local manufacturers.
Rise of ASIC Production in the U.S.
The production of ASICs in the U.S. is expanding as local and foreign firms adapt to changing market conditions. Auradine, a U.S.-based company, reports a growing interest in its devices, offering alternatives for miners seeking to reduce reliance on Asian suppliers.
Strategies of Major Hardware Manufacturers
Chinese hardware producers are also strengthening their presence in the U.S. Canaan has completed a pilot production run of mining equipment on American soil. This strategy aims to reduce exposure to trade tariffs, refocusing on Bitcoin mining hardware while stepping away from its AI chip division.
Trends and Plans of Mining Companies
Genesis Digital Assets (GDA) recently acquired 1,000 units from Auradine’s product line for its Texas data center. The AT2880 model provides up to 260 terahashes per second. GDA's chairman, Abdumalik Mirakhmedov, emphasized the importance of Auradine's equipment for energy efficiency and scaling operations. Other firms like Marathon Digital Holdings are also moving to domestic hardware in response to tariff costs.
The shift toward local mining hardware indicates a strategic response by U.S. companies to current trade conditions and supply chain challenges, potentially reshaping the market landscape.
