Rhea-AI Filing Summary

BGIN Blockchain Limited is launching a new ASIC Chip Customization Solutions business that opens its chip design and hardware engineering capabilities to third-party customers for the first time. This expands its model beyond selling proprietary ICERIVER-branded mining hardware, self-mining, and hosting services.

The company has already completed its first customized project for a proof-of-work protocol, producing 3,000 mining machines. Of these, 2,400 units were delivered directly to the customer, while 600 units will be sold to end users through the ICERIVER official channel, potentially broadening BGIN’s future revenue base.

Insights

BGIN adds a higher-margin services-style line by selling ASIC expertise.

BGIN Blockchain is pivoting from purely selling branded miners and hosting to also offering customized ASIC design and hardware solutions. This leverages its prior work on projects like KAS, ALPH, ALEO, and its 4nm BT1 Bitcoin chip to monetize engineering know-how.

The inaugural project delivers 3,000 customized PoW mining machines, with 2,400 going directly to a protocol customer and 600 sold via the ICERIVER channel. This hybrid distribution shows flexibility in serving both institutional and retail segments without changing core infrastructure.

The company frames this as an initial step toward a broader revenue base, but no financial metrics or pipeline details are disclosed. Future filings that quantify revenue contribution or margins from customization work will clarify how strategic this shift becomes relative to legacy mining hardware sales and self-mining.

tape-out technical
"most recently completed the successful tape-out of its 4nm BT1 Bitcoin mining chip in March 2026."
Tape-out is the milestone when a chip designer delivers the finalized, production-ready blueprint of a semiconductor chip to a foundry for fabrication. Think of it as handing a finished blueprint to a factory: it means design work is complete and manufacturing (with its costs and timelines) can begin. For investors, tape-out signals a clear step toward production, potential revenue, and the transition of technical risk into manufacturing and market risk.

Safe Harbor Statement regulatory
"Safe Harbor Statement This press release contains statements that may constitute “forward-looking” statements"
A safe harbor statement is a disclaimer that companies include in their public disclosures to limit legal liability if future results differ from what was forecasted or expected. It acts like a protective shield, helping companies avoid lawsuits if their predictions don’t come true, and gives investors a clearer understanding that certain statements are forward-looking and involve risks.

BGIN BLOCKCHAIN LIMITED Launches ASIC Chip Customization
Solutions Business and Completes Inaugural Customer Delivery

 

New Business Unlocks Internal Capabilities for Third-Party Customers for the First Time

 

SINGAPORE, May 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BGIN BLOCKCHAIN LIMITED (“BGIN” or the “Company”; NASDAQ: BGIN), a digital asset technology company specializing in proprietary cryptocurrency mining technologies and the manufacturing of cryptocurrency mining hardware, today announced the launch of its ASIC Chip Customization Solutions Business timed with the completion of its first customer hardware delivery.

 

This new business builds on a natural culmination of the Company’s extensive experience in ASIC chip design and mining hardware engineering. BGIN has previously developed proprietary ASIC mining hardware for multiple cryptocurrency projects, including KAS, ALPH, and ALEO, and most recently completed the successful tape-out of its 4nm BT1 Bitcoin mining chip in March 2026. These capabilities have historically served the Company’s proprietary mining hardware product lines and ICERIVER-brand products.

 

Distinct from BGIN’s historical business model centered on the sale of proprietary-branded mining hardware, the ASIC Chip Customization Solutions business makes the Company’s long-standing internal capabilities available to external parties for the first time. Centered on ASIC chip customization and covering end-to-end stages including chip design, hardware optimization for specific algorithms or application scenarios, mining or hardware system integration, manufacturing coordination, system-level validation, and, where applicable, distribution through the ICERIVER platform the ASIC Chip Customization Solutions business provides customized solutions to third-party customers with specialized computing power or hardware requirements. This represents an initial step toward extending the Company’s capabilities beyond its three existing operations of mining hardware sales, cryptocurrency mining, and hosting services, and may over time contribute to a broader revenue base.

 

BGIN has also completed the initial hardware customer delivery within the new ASIC Chip Customization Solutions business. This project involves the delivery of customized mining hardware by the Company to a PoW protocol project customer. BGIN completed an initial production batch of 3,000 customized PoW mining machines under a hybrid distribution arrangement: 2,400 units have been delivered directly to the customer, while the remaining 600 units will be made available to end users through the ICERIVER official sales channel as the retail distribution component of this customized project, subject to final listing schedule, inventory considerations, and applicable commercial arrangements.

 

Mr. Allen Wu, Founder, Chief Executive Officer, and Director of BGIN, said, “The completion of our first customer project delivery represents an early step in extending the ASIC chip design, hardware engineering, and manufacturing coordination capabilities the Company has built over many years, from internal product lines to external customer service. BGIN has acquired significant engineering experience in ASIC chip design and hardware, and has developed system-level understanding at each step, together with supply chain and manufacturing delivery capabilities. Combined with the sales and customer support foundation that the ICERIVER brand has established in the hardware market, we believe these collectively constitute an engineering and commercial foundation that enables the Company to serve third-party customers and that made the successful end-to-end delivery of this project possible. Looking ahead, the Company will continue to evaluate opportunities to commercialize its ASIC chip design and hardware engineering capabilities.”
