The summer campaign Crypto Summer 2025 by cloud mining provider BeMine is entering its final stage. Over three months, the project has become more than just a promotional campaign: it has evolved into an experiment showcasing where the mining industry is headed in the era of AI and gamification.

Cloud Mining Turns into a Game

One of the key trends highlighted by BeMine is the integration of gaming mechanics into the world of cloud mining.
The campaign’s signature feature — the Summer Progress Bar — allowed users to earn daily rewards while advancing along a “progress scale.” Instead of dry statistics and charts, participants experienced a more intuitive and engaging format that effectively turned cloud mining into a game.

Complementing this was the Crypto Summer Achievements system — a set of tasks that rewarded users with bonuses. These included social media subscriptions, in-platform activities, and task participation. In essence, BeMine managed to successfully transfer proven gamification practices into the crypto industry.

“Crypto Summer 2025 confirmed that the combination of cloud mining, gamification, and AI tools creates a unique user experience and boosts community engagement. We are glad that our users are the first to test the latest solutions on the market” — BeMine stated.

AI Mining: Next-Generation Mining

The campaign’s most important technological innovation was AI mining. BeMine tested intelligent power distribution across popular altcoin miners: Antminer L7, L9, and Z15.

The concept is simple: algorithms analyze the market in real time and choose the most profitable mining strategies—across coins like LTC, DGB, DOGE, DASH, BLOCX, OCTA, EGAZ, ZEC, HUSH, ARRR, ZEN, and ETH Classic—helping users maximize returns.

Where mining efficiency once depended heavily on the user’s own expertise and analysis, artificial intelligence is now gradually taking on that role.

But the most striking effect is how AI can breathe new life into hardware that many considered permanently obsolete. For example, in stock mode, an Antminer L9 running the Scrypt algorithm generates ~ –$2.49/day, making it a loss-making asset. With an AI mining subscription, the same machine jumps to ~$12.86/day. That’s an improvement of $15.35 daily—over +615% growth compared to stock performance.

In practice, AI transforms an unprofitable miner into a profitable one, unlocking previously hidden efficiency through intelligent energy allocation. What was once outdated hardware becomes a revenue stream again.

Industry experts are already calling tools like this the “second wave of cloud mining” — more flexible, more personalized, and far more performance-driven than anything before.

Antminer S21 Hydro: Risk-Free Entry into Mining

For new users, BeMine introduced an unusual offer: a Trial Antminer S21 Hydro. For the first time, a next-generation ASIC miner could be tested with zero upfront investment.

The S21 Hydro stands out for its high energy efficiency and is considered one of the most promising models of 2025. For newcomers, this initiative lowers the barrier to entry into the mining industry without capital risks, while professionals can assess the long-term economics of transitioning to new hardware.

Technology and the ASIC Market: Looking Ahead

The Crypto Summer campaign has served as a testing ground for concepts that are likely to become industry standards in the near future:

• flexible cloud mining with AI-driven optimization,
• gamified mechanics for user engagement,
• free hardware trials to expand the audience.

Yet BeMine has no plans to stop here. In September, the company will launch its Autumn Campaign, and its official store will introduce the long-awaited Antminer S23. This model is expected to be one of the most talked-about releases in the industry, promising higher hashrates while maintaining top-tier energy efficiency.
