Samsung wins 2 nm chip orders from MicroBT and Canaan

Samsung Electronics secured orders from Chinese cryptocurrency mining companies MicroBT and Canaan to produce 2 nm ASIC chips. The deals are estimated at $480 million per year, with production at Samsung's S3 fab in Hwaseong. Volume production for MicroBT has begun; Canaan's wafers are set to enter the line in early 2026.

“The wins add to a string of recent production deals for Samsung’s nascent 2 nm platform, following orders for the Exynos 2600 smartphone processor designed by Samsung’s System LSI division and Tesla’s next-generation 'AI6' accelerator chip.”openkorea.org
