Intel announces that it’s entering the Bitcoin mining market

The ISCCC Conference is one of the most prestigious events in the chip industry. At this years conference Intel is set to outline a new "Bonanza Mine" processor, a new chip described as an "ultra-low-voltage energy-efficient Bitcoin mining ASIC.This means that they will soon compete with the likes of Bitmain in the market for specialized ASICs for Bitcoin mining.Last year Intel's Systems and Graphics Architect, Senior Vice President and GM Raja Koduri said this about crypto mining:“Being able to do much more efficient blockchain validation at a much lower cost, much lower power, is a pretty solvable problem. And you know, we are working on that, and at some point in time, hopefully not too far into the future, we will kinda share some interesting hardware for that."We will know more details after the presentation on 23rd February, 2022.Source
