Crypto Mining & Underutilized Resources

Cryptocurrency mining first began in 2009. At the time, people were able to mine bitcoin from home with their PC plugged into an outlet. As the block chain has grown, the complexity of the mathematical equations that must be solved has also increased, causing increasingly powerful computers to be used. PCs gave way to GPUs (graphic processing units) which gave way to ASICs (application specific integrated circuits); a powerful microchip designed for a special application.  

As modern mining operations utilize these ASICs to mine cryptocurrency, they must have three key ingredients for success: a crypto friendly government regulatory structure, a stable and safe mining environment, and low cost power to optimize mining efforts. 

 

That's where stranded and underutilized resources come in. By converting these resources into electricity, we can have stable, reliable power to run mining operations for a fraction of the cost. This is game changing for crypto currency mining. 

How It Works

The Benefits to Oil, Gas, & Power Companies

Using stranded and underutilized resources can also have great benefits for oil, gas, and power companies as they work to efficiently utilize assets and reduce waste. Here's how:

Repurpose Stranded Assets...

By converting stranded power assets and putting them to use as electrical power for crypto mining operations, companies are able to reduce waste and increase profitability.
