Coinbau (earlier ASICrising) designs and manufacture Bitcoin mining machines. CoinBau’s chip, dubbed Wolfblood Extreme Efficiency, pulls roughly half the electricity necessary per gigahash – approximately 0.19 joules – compared to most options on the market, which range between 0.35 to 0.45 joules per gigahash. In 2013 the company released its 1st generation 28nm Bitcoin mining ASIC and developed a 1.8 TH/s mining hardware. CoinBau plans to make bitcoin mining more efficient through a mix of software and hardware solutions. Has partnered with RacyICs GmbH, a Dresden-based chip maker. The company is seeking $15M to begin large-scale production of the chip.
