I'm wondering how long Bitcoin miners, those specialized computers used for Bitcoin mining, typically last before they become obsolete or need to be replaced due to hardware failure or technological advancements.

The lifespan of a well-maintained machine is generally estimated to be within the range of 3 to 5 years.

If ASICs are kept in harsh or inadequate environments, their lifespan can drastically shorten.

In such poor conditions, ASIC miners may deteriorate within just a few months.

Conversely, providing proper care and maintenance to an ASIC miner can extend its lifespan beyond the usual 5 years.
