what's Canaan Inc.?
Canaan Inc. is a leading manufacturer of application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) miners for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Founded in 2013, the company pioneered the development of high-performance mining hardware, starting with the Avalon series, which set benchmarks for efficiency and hash rate in the industry. Their products are designed for both professional mining operations and home users, incorporating advanced cooling systems, modular designs, and compatibility with standard power sources to optimize energy use and reduce operational costs. The company's innovations extend to integrating AI technologies for smarter mining operations, such as predictive maintenance and grid balancing solutions that leverage excess energy from Bitcoin mining to support AI computing demands. Canaan focuses on scalability, producing miners with hash rates up to 90 TH/s while emphasizing quiet operation and ease of setup for diverse users. Through global expansion, including self-mining facilities and partnerships, Canaan contributes to the decentralization and sustainability of cryptocurrency networks.
