SINGAPORE, March 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bitdeer Technologies Group (NASDAQ: BTDR) (“Bitdeer” or the “Company”), a world-leading technology company for AI and Bitcoin mining infrastructure, today announced the launch of its latest self-developed mining machine, the SEALMINER DL1 Air. Optimized for the Scrypt algorithm, the DL1 Air provides a robust, industrial-grade solution for professional operators, supporting a range of coins headlined by Litecoin (LTC) and Dogecoin (DOGE).

By leveraging Bitdeer’s proprietary ASIC technology, the DL1 Air focuses on long-term operational stability and advanced power management to meet the growing demand for high-efficiency mining hardware.

Key Specifications of the SEALMINER DL1 Air*:

  • Hash Rate: 25 GH/s
  • Power Efficiency: 149 J/GH
  • Power Consumption: 3725W
  • Supported Coins: Litecoin (LTC), Dogecoin (DOGE), Bellscoin (BELLS), Junkcoin (JKC), Luckycoin (LKY), and Pepecoin (PEP)

The DL1 Air features three distinct operating modes—Normal, High Hashrate, and a proprietary Low Power Mode—allowing operators to seamlessly tailor performance to their environment. While the Normal and High Hashrate settings balance stable output with energy efficiency, the Low Power Mode offers a strategic advantage for cost optimization or navigating grid constraints. In this mode, the hashrate can reach 20.5 GH/s, with power efficiency further optimized to 136 J/GH.

The unit inherits the validated SEALMINER Air Cooling architecture, featuring compact dimensions of 197 × 365 × 292 mm and a net weight of 15.5 kg for ease of maintenance and high-density deployment.

The SEALMINER DL1 Air underscores the Company’s commitment to technical excellence and transparency across the Scrypt ecosystem. Bitdeer will continue to uphold the principles of “Innovation, Efficiency, and Stability,” offering global miners higher-quality and more reliable products and services.

*Note: Product performance may vary by ±5% in hashrate and power efficiency, and ±10% in power consumption. Final specifications are based on the delivered units.
