## Water heater and Bitcoin: an unexpected combination At CES 2026, Superheat unveiled a decidedly original product: a water heater that integrates a Bitcoin mining system. The idea is simple: instead of using a traditional electrical resistance, the water is heated by exploiting the heat generated by an ASIC chip for Bitcoin mining. ## Energy saving and cryptocurrency earnings According to the company, this approach significantly reduces energy costs. The heat produced by mining is used to heat the water, reducing dependence on the electricity grid. Furthermore, the mined Bitcoins can generate extra income, potentially covering up to 80% of electricity and water expenses, with an estimated gain of up to $1,000 per year in BTC. The effectiveness of this system will obviously depend on the cost of electricity, the difficulty of Bitcoin mining, and the price of the cryptocurrency. However, the idea of combining water heating with mining represents an innovative approach to optimizing energy use and generating new sources of income.
