FX.co ★ Technical Analysis of ETH/USD for September 23, 2021

Crypto Industry news:

Mining company BIT Mining plans to invest $ 12.14 million in developing an 85-megawatt cryptocurrency mining center in Ohio.

BIT Mining, which owns all of the mining operations operating under BTC.com, has entered into a joint venture agreement with Viking Data Centers to establish a Bitcoin mining facility.

Under the agreement, BIT Mining will pay Viking Data $ 10.84 million in cash, and the remaining amount will be settled in cash or company shares. Following an investment in Viking Data and a subsequent agreement, BIT Mining will own 51% of Ohio's new Bitcoin mine.

Dubbed the "Ohio Mining Site", the planned 85 MW facility will be developed in three phases. In the first stage of development of the facility, by October 15, 2021, the capacity will reach 11 MW, and in the second and third stage, it will increase by 39 and 35 MW, respectively.

Ohio Mining Site is one of many Bitcoin mines to be launched in the United States due to the constant migration of mining capacity to various locations in North America.

After cryptocurrency mining was suppressed in China, miners were forced to move their equipment overseas. North American mining companies seized the opportunity to expand their market share, and large companies purchased additional platforms for their facilities.
