Bitdeer Sealminer A3 Hydro 500TH SHA-256 Bitcoin Miner: Product Overview
What Is the Sealminer A3 Hydro and What Does It Mine?
The Bitdeer Sealminer A3 Hydro 500TH is a dedicated SHA-256 ASIC miner for Bitcoin & Bitcoin Cash. Manufactured by BitDeer. This model belongs to the Sealminer A Series. Released in 2025.
Is the Sealminer A3 Hydro Right for Your Setup?
Mining starts with power. A competitive electricity tariff or surplus renewable generation can give your operation a useful cost advantage, while higher electricity prices can make an otherwise capable miner uneconomic. Compare your rate and chosen coin in the earnings table, allowing for cooling, pool fees and any other operating costs.
Prefer to avoid the day-to-day work of running your own mining site? Our managed ASIC hosting services offer an alternative, with power, cooling and monitoring handled at the facility. Explore current locations and rates, then speak to our team to confirm compatibility, availability, minimum quantities and any additional fees.
This model requires a compatible liquid cooling installation. Confirm coolant requirements, flow, pressure, heat rejection and electrical supply against the manufacturer’s specifications before ordering.
Confirm the power supply, leads and cooling equipment included with your exact variant, and obtain its manufacturer’s installation manual before arranging the installation.
Which Coins Can the Sealminer A3 Hydro Mine?
Mining Compatibility
Mining on the SHA-256 algorithm, you can secure Bitcoin (BTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and AuxPoW siblings such as DigiByte SHA (DGB), eCash (XEC), Peercoin (PPC) and Fractal Bitcoin (FB); you can also earn Bitcoin and other coins by selling your SHA-256 hash-power on the NiceHash Hashpower Marketplace (Nicehash-SHA-AB).
How SHA-256 Mining Works
SHA-256 is the cryptographic hash function used in Bitcoin mining. Bitcoin applies it twice to a block header, and miners repeatedly test candidate headers until a result meets the network difficulty target. Dedicated ASIC hardware performs this work at scale. For equipment comparisons, hashrate describes the amount of hashing work a machine performs, while efficiency describes the energy needed for that work. Compatibility also depends on the network and mining protocol supported by the device and pool.

Coin and merged mining support depend on the network, pool and firmware. Selling hashpower through a marketplace is different from directly mining its payout coin.

Manufacturer Background
Bitdeer is a technology company headquartered in Singapore and founded by Jihan Wu. Its origins are linked to Wu's early interest in Bitcoin and the infrastructure needed to support it. According to the company's account, that interest led him from work as an analyst into mining technology and the founding of Bitmain in 2013. He left Bitmain in 2021 to focus on Bitdeer. The business subsequently listed on Nasdaq in April 2023 and works across semiconductor design, mining operations, data centres and computing services.
