SINGAPORE, May 05, 2026 — BGIN BLOCKCHAIN LIMITED (“BGIN” or the “Company”; NASDAQ: BGIN), a digital asset technology firm focused on proprietary crypto mining tech and hardware production, showcased its “PortableBTC” commemorative prototype miner at Bitcoin 2026. This event, the globe’s premier BTC industry conference, took place from April 27–29 in Las Vegas. This prototype celebrates the Company’s debut into Bitcoin mining hardware creation and its research into consumer-centric mining products, aligning with BGIN’s “Crypto for All” mission.

Rezwan Mirza, BGIN’s Chief Corporate Development Officer, also took part in a conference panel titled “Lord of the Rigs: The Future of Mining Hardware.” He joined other industry executives to exchange perspectives on the future of mining machinery. Mr. Mirza noted during the discussion that competition in Bitcoin mining hardware is increasingly defined by comprehensive full-stack capabilities, encompassing ASIC design, equipment manufacturing, operational efficiency, and power infrastructure.

The BT1 chip drives BGIN’s PortableBTC prototype. This commemorative device signifies the start of ICERIVER’s path in Bitcoin mining hardware—spanning from early chip verification to system validation—and acts as a concrete milestone in the Company’s continuous hardware development efforts. This portable miner is a non-commercial unit; it is not available for purchase and does not reflect the design, performance, or specifications of any future production models.

“The PortableBTC prototype stands as an early, concrete milestone in our journey of developing Bitcoin mining hardware and embodies our goal of making Bitcoin mining more accessible,” Mr. Mirza stated. “Evidenced by our seven straight successful tape-outs, we are confident that our ASIC execution capabilities offer a robust base for investigating consumer-focused Bitcoin mining products. Concurrently, we see the industry shifting toward wider full-stack capabilities, where ASIC design, equipment manufacturing, operational efficiency, and power infrastructure are all critical factors.”
