  In 2016, the most popular bitcoin mining rigs were the Antminer S9, AvalonMiner 741, and the SP20 Jackson. These rigs were in high demand among miners due to their impressive hash rates and energy efficiency. The Antminer S9, for instance, had a hash rate of 14 TH/s and consumed around 1,300 watts of power. It was a beast when it came to mining bitcoins. The AvalonMiner 741 and SP20 Jackson were also popular choices, offering hash rates of 7.3 TH/s and 1.7 TH/s respectively. These rigs were known for their reliability and affordability, making them accessible to both individual miners and mining farms. Although there were no major breakthroughs in mining rig technology during that year, these rigs represented the best options available for bitcoin miners in terms of performance and cost-effectiveness.
