Bitmain Antminer E11 (9GH)

9 GH/s EtcHash at 2,340W and 260 J/GH efficiency on Bitmain's 2025 generation E11 chassis. ±3 percent hashrate and ±5 percent power tolerance per Bitmain documentation. Released January 2025. The standard bin of the E11 generation, with the 9.5 GH/s top bin sitting above at 2,470W. A 2.4x generational hashrate improvement over the previous Antminer E9 Pro (3.68 GH/s).

Substantially better on every dimension. The E11 delivers 9 GH/s versus the E9 Pro's 3.68 GH/s (2.4x more hashrate) at 2,340W versus the E9 Pro's 2,200W (6.4 percent more power), with 260 J/GH efficiency versus the E9 Pro's 598 J/GH (56 percent better per gigahash). For operators running existing E9 Pro fleets, the E11 is a clear refresh path that produces meaningfully more ETC per unit at substantially better operating economics. The E11 represents three years of Bitmain silicon advancement applied to the EtcHash workload.

Same chassis, same firmware, same connectivity, same noise profile, with silicon quality differentiating the bins. Standard 9 GH/s at 2,340W versus top 9.5 GH/s at 2,470W: 5.5 percent more hashrate at 5.6 percent more power, identical per gigahash efficiency. Daily profit differential at $0.08 per kWh approximately $0.11 per unit ($40 per year per unit). The bin selection decision comes down to acquisition pricing: if the top bin costs more than $40 per unit additional, the standard bin wins on multi year economics. If the top bin premium is below $40 per unit, the top bin captures slightly better total economics.

Different competitive positioning. The Jasminer X44-P at 23.4 GH/s and 2,200W delivers approximately 94 J/GH efficiency, substantially better per gigahash than the E11's 260 J/GH. On raw efficiency math, Jasminer wins decisively. The E11 competes on Bitmain ecosystem depth: broadest distributor and support network in ASIC mining, mature Antminer firmware with third party firmware compatibility, integration with existing Bitmain fleet management infrastructure. For operators valuing ecosystem standardization across mixed Bitmain fleets, the E11 wins. For operators prioritizing maximum efficiency per gigahash, the X44-P wins.

Yes across typical retail commercial and industrial electricity rates. At $0.08 per kWh: +$1.93 daily profit, +$57.90 monthly, +$704 annually. At $0.05 per kWh industrial rate: +$3.61 daily, +$1,317 annually. At $0.04 per kWh: +$4.17 daily, +$1,521 annually. At $0.07 per kWh per Mining Now data: +$2.49 daily, +$908 annually. Break even electricity rate at current ETC network conditions is approximately $0.114 per kWh. The E11 is profitable across most realistic deployment scenarios, with substantially better current economics than competing Aleo or Alephium ASIC hardware.

200 to 240V AC input recommended for practical deployment. The 100 to 240V universal voltage spec is technically supported by the included PSU but at 2,340W on 110V draws approximately 21.3 amps continuous, exceeding standard residential 15A circuits and most 20A circuits. At 220V draws approximately 10.6 amps, fitting comfortably within standard 220V circuits. At 240V approximately 9.75 amps. Compatible with US 220V commercial service, European 230V, Asian 220V, and industrial three phase deployments using one phase per unit. Verify electrical service capacity at the deployment site before purchasing.

75 dB from four high-speed cooling fans at peak operation. Standard industrial ASIC noise comparable to a vacuum cleaner or busy restaurant. Same noise profile as the Antminer S21, S23, and most current generation industrial Bitmain hardware. Requires dedicated mining space: warehouse, shipping container, garage with sound isolation, dedicated outbuilding, or professional hosting facility. Not suitable for shared residential spaces, apartments, or offices with neighboring occupants.

400 x 195 x 290 mm miner dimensions at 14.2 kg net weight per Bitmain and most distributor sources (some sources list 15.8 kg gross packaged weight). Standard Antminer chassis format compatible with existing S19 and S21 series rack configurations and mining shelves. Single person handling with appropriate lifting technique. Fits standard 4U rack mount configurations or open mining shelving without specialized hardware.

5 to 45 degrees Celsius ambient operating range at 5 to 95 percent humidity tolerance per Bitmain official documentation. Operating temperature maximum decreases by 1°C per 300 meter elevation increase above 900 meters per Bitmain altitude guidance. For deployment in hot climates such as the UAE, Texas summer, Arizona, or tropical regions, ambient cooling infrastructure must hold intake air below 40 degrees Celsius at peak load to maintain consistent hashrate. Fan RPM and noise increase substantially as ambient temperature approaches the 45°C upper limit.

Ethereum Classic (ETC) is the primary target on the EtcHash algorithm. EthereumPoW (ETHW), Ethereum Fair (ETF), and other EtHash-derivative chains are also mineable. Cannot mine Bitcoin (SHA-256), Litecoin (Scrypt), Kaspa (KHeavyHash), Aleo (zkSNARK), Alephium (Blake3), or any other proof of work algorithm outside the EtHash/EtcHash family. Most operators mine ETC directly at major pools (2miners, F2Pool, ETC Pool, Hiveon Pool) for maximum revenue stability.

Ethereum Classic (ETC) is the original Ethereum chain that retained Proof of Work consensus after Ethereum mainnet transitioned to Proof of Stake in September 2022. ETC maintains Code is Law principles, fixed maximum supply tokenomics at 210.7 million ETC, and Bitcoin-style monetary policy through scheduled emission reductions. The ETC mining ecosystem is substantially smaller than pre-merge Ethereum but remains active with committed mining infrastructure and continued protocol development. Operators mine ETC for direct ETC accumulation, exposure to the permanent PoW thesis, and diversification beyond Bitcoin SHA-256 mining.

Yes. The E11 ships with an integrated PSU sized for the 2,340W rated load, along with power cables and quick start guide. Box contents per MillionMiner: Antminer E11 unit, PSU, power cables, and quick start guide. Contents may vary by batch with exact items in order confirmation. The included PSU eliminates external power brick sourcing decisions and connector compatibility concerns.

Standard Antminer setup. Step one: verify 220V+ electrical circuit capacity at the deployment location (110V deployment not practical at 21.3A draw). Step two: connect the included power cable to the integrated PSU and plug into the 220V+ outlet. Step three: connect Ethernet cable to the router or network switch. Step four: find miner IP through Bitmain IP Reporter software, router DHCP table, or network IP scanner. Step five: open the Antminer web interface in a browser, login with default root/root credentials (change immediately for security), configure ETC pool URL and ETC wallet address. Step six: verify hashrate stabilizes at approximately 9 GH/s within 10 to 15 minutes of startup.

Major Ethereum Classic mining pools accept E11 hashrate including 2miners, F2Pool, ETC Pool, Hiveon Pool, K1Pool, and Nicehash. Pool fees typically range from 0.5 to 2 percent of revenue. Standard Stratum protocol with no hardware restrictions on pool selection. Verify pool specifics before deployment including minimum payout thresholds and ETC network support. The E11's 9 GH/s hashrate hits pool minimum payout thresholds substantially faster than older E9 Pro hardware.

180-day Bitmain factory warranty standard, with some distributors offering extended 1-year coverage. Covers manufacturing defects and hardware failures under normal operating conditions. Tampering with warranty seal, use of incompatible PSU, exceeding rated voltage input, or physical damage from shipping voids coverage. Warranty claims processed through MillionMiner support with direct Bitmain channel escalation as needed.

Standard industrial Antminer maintenance. Quarterly dust cleaning of the four fan intakes and rear exhaust prevents thermal throttling and premature fan bearing wear. Annual fan bearing inspection with replacement if bearing noise develops. Monitor hashrate continuously through the Antminer web interface or BraiinsOS+ dashboard. The E11 platform has approximately one year of field reliability data as of April 2026 with no known systemic reliability issues.

BraiinsOS+ supports the Antminer E11 series for autotuning optimization. The firmware provides per-chip performance data, advanced pool management, and comprehensive monitoring beyond Bitmain's stock firmware. Operators using BraiinsOS+ on E11 hardware typically achieve 2 to 5 percent efficiency improvements over stock firmware. Vnish firmware is another third party option. Note that installing third party firmware may affect manufacturer warranty coverage.
