Overview
- Bitmain has confirmed it will establish its first U.S. headquarters and assembly line in either Texas or Florida by the end of September 2025.
- The company intends to hire 250 local employees for manufacturing and site maintenance during the facility’s opening phase.
- Initial production of Antminer rigs is scheduled for early 2026, with full-scale output ramping up later that year.
- Domestic manufacturing aims to speed up deliveries and repairs for U.S. customers while sidestepping roughly 35% in tariffs and Customs delays.
- The expansion mirrors a broader shift by Chinese mining hardware makers such as Canaan and MicroBT toward U.S. facilities under rising trade and security pressures.
