MicroBT, a leading developer of Bitcoin mining hardware, launched its latest WhatsMiner M70 series in at Bitcoin MENA in Abu Dhabi on Monday, according to a note shared with Bitcoin Magazine.
The event, themed “Green-Driven, Ecosystem Redefined,” brought together mining executives, strategic partners, and key clients, marking a significant step in the company’s efforts to shape a more sustainable mining industry.
Dr. Yang Zuoxing, Founder and CEO of MicroBT, opened the event with a keynote that highlighted the connection between technological leadership and long-term industry growth.
He framed the conversation around energy innovation, presenting strategies that aim to integrate renewable sources into mining operations.
Central to his remarks was an off-grid solar solution capable of 200kW output. This system, using an 800V DC supply and a “load-following-source” design, improves efficiency compared to traditional AC setups and enables uninterrupted operation.
Dr. Yang also noted the potential of hybrid energy approaches, combining gas-powered generation with careful miner selection to extend hardware lifespan and operational reliability.
Bitcoin mining efficiency
The unveiling of the WhatsMiner M70 series drew the most attention. The new line features models with power efficiencies of 14.5J/T, 13.5J/T, and 12.5J/T. These figures reflect a push to balance performance with energy use.
Following the technical presentation, MicroBT’s Sales and Marketing Director, Wright Wang, addressed the company’s ecosystem strategy. He outlined a vision that extends beyond hardware, focusing on shared-value partnerships and joint mining.
Wang highlighted the network of certified solution partners who provide expertise in cooling, energy management, and operations.
By linking these partners to clients, MicroBT positions itself not just as a supplier but as a facilitator of a connected, collaborative mining ecosystem.
The launch included presentations from a range of partners, including HeatCore, HashHouse, FogHashing, Giga, HashSmith, Pauway Energy, Lumen Capital, BitMars, and Luxor.
Their contributions spanned topics from advanced cooling techniques to financial models for hashrate management. The breadth of participation underscored the interdependence of the modern mining industry and highlighted the role of collaboration in driving innovation.
Tether’s VP of Energy and Mining, Giv Zanganeh, also addressed the audience on the topic of redefining the Bitcoin mining ecosystem. His presence reflected growing confidence in MicroBT’s approach and signaled an emerging alignment between hardware innovation, energy management, and financial infrastructure.
MicroBT’s WhatsMiner M70 launch illustrates a shift in the industry. As miners face increasing pressure to manage energy use and operational risks, the company is betting on a model that combines technical innovation with strategic partnerships.
The launch in Abu Dhabi positions MicroBT as a company seeking to influence both the technology and the practices of Bitcoin mining, framing sustainability and ecosystem growth as inseparable goals.
