Currently Ethiopia ranks #8 globally in Bitcoin mining. Top 10 Bitcoin Mining Countries (Early 2026 Estimates) 1. United States — ~37.5% (~400 EH/s) 2. Russia — ~16.4% (~175 EH/s) 3. China — ~11.7% (~125 EH/s) (despite the ban, via underground ops) 4. Paraguay — ~4.0% (~43 EH/s) 5. United Arab Emirates — ~3.1% (~33 EH/s) 6. Oman — ~3.0% (~32 EH/s) 7. Canada — ~2.6% (~28 EH/s) 8. Ethiopia — 2.6% (~27.5 EH/s) 9. Kazakhstan — ~2.1% (~22 EH/s) 10. Indonesia — ~2.1% (~22 EH/s) 5kOo7“LARGE” hJrpS“LARGE” Why Ethiopia Has Risen So Quickly •Cheap, surplus renewable energy — Especially hydroelectric from projects like the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam. Electricity costs are among the world’s lowest (~$0.03–0.05/kWh). •Government support — Policies encouraging mining to monetize excess power, including licensing foreign operators (e.g., Russian firms like BitCluster). •Rapid growth — From near-zero a few years ago to top-10 status, driven by foreign investment in large farms. Challenges remain, including political instability, grid limitations, and occasional permit halts due to power constraints. Still, Ethiopia has become one of Africa’s standout mining hubs and a notable global player.

Владелец крупнейшей майнинговой фермы Сибири арестован Замоскворецкий суд Москвы отправил под домашний арест основателя и совладельца крупнейшей майнинговой компании России BitRiver Игоря Рунца. Его подозревают в сокрытии средств от обложения налогами и страховым взносам (ст. 199.2 УК), говорится в карточке дела. Решение об избрании меры пресечения «запрещено» к публикации, сказано на сайте суда. Ещё год назад Игорь Рунец говорил госканалу RT, что Россия в ближайшие три года может стать мировым лидером по объёму добычи криптовалют, опередив США. BitRiver — это крупнейшей легальная майнинговая компания России. Её самая большая в стране майнинговая ферма находится в Братском районе. Выручка зарегистрированной в Братске «Битривер Рус» в 2024 году, по данным сервиса «Контур. Фокус», составила 10,3 млрд рублей, чистая прибыль — 202,2 млн. Московская «УК „Битривер“» принадлежит Игорю Рунцу и Эдгару Шайдулину. Рунец через группу компаний «Фокс» также владеет долей в братском ООО «Бит », вторым учредителем которого выступает ООО «Эн Телеком», подконтрольное энергетическому гиганту En , связанному с Олегом Дерипаской. В Иркутской области, популярной у майнеров из-за дешевизны электроэнергии, также работают майнинг-компании Promminer, BitCluster, «Радиан» и CryptoReactor.

♟ 4 Mining Strategies Our Clients Are Using in 2025 As network difficulty rises and profit margins tighten, miners are increasingly turning to well-thought-out strategic solutions. Here are four approaches we’re seeing among BitCluster clients: 1️⃣ Hedging through multi-location setups — distributing mining capacity across different regions helps mitigate risks related to regulations, climate, and infrastructure 2️⃣ Mining without selling Bitcoin — when short on liquidity, clients use collateralized lending platforms like Aave to borrow USDT against their Bitcoin or other crypto holdings 3️⃣ Regular hardware upgrades — every two years, clients invest in the most energy-efficient models to stay competitive 4️⃣ Passing down capacity to children — mining becomes an educational asset, with parents allocating part of their mining power to their kids to involve them in digital asset management from an early age 👉 Ready to get started?

🖥 Why Mining on Old Equipment No Longer Pays Off in 2025 Investing in energy-efficient next-gen ASIC miners is no longer a trend — it’s a necessity. In 2025, operating outdated devices isn’t just inefficient — it’s unprofitable. After the halving, the block reward dropped to 3.125 BTC, while the network hash rate has increased by 77% over the past year With growing network difficulty and declining hashprice (currently around $0.049), older models with energy efficiency of 80–100 J/TH can no longer compete — they consume more electricity than they generate in revenue, even with low electricity rates Modern models like the Antminer S21 and WhatsMiner M66S operate in the 15–18 J/TH range and come equipped with automated control, cooling, and remote monitoring systems. These aren’t just new devices — they are infrastructure solutions that reduce costs, extend equipment lifespan, and ensure business stability Major players are already upgrading their fleets at scale, pushing out those who continue to mine "the old-fashioned way." In today’s industry, mining alone isn’t enough — efficiency is the key to survival 👉 Ready to get started?

📊 Top 3 Reasons Why Mining in Ethiopia Is Growing ▪️ Affordable Green Energy Most electricity comes from hydroelectric power plants, including the GERD — the largest dam in Africa. This ensures stability, eco-friendliness, and low infrastructure costs ▪️ Supportive Government Policy Mining was legalized in 2022. Foreign currency payments for electricity benefit the state, and international investments are welcomed. Ethiopia is already ranked 2nd in the world for mining equipment purchases — right after Texas ▪️ Influx of International Companies and Technologies After China's mining ban, many Chinese and global players relocated here. Major investors (including BitCluster) are building infrastructure, creating jobs, and accelerating the region's digital transformation 💬 This makes Ethiopia one of the most promising directions in the industry.

⚡️ Why Dust Destroys ASICs — and Our Way to Stop It Dust is one of the main threats to the stable operation of mining equipment. It clogs radiators and fans, disrupts heat dissipation, causes overheating, and accelerates component wear. In hot climates, dust becomes especially dangerous: without proper control, it can lead to equipment failure At BitCluster, we fully understand how critical environmental control is for reliable and stable equipment performance. That’s why we are continuously upgrading our data center in Ethiopia: ▪️ We paved all access roads to the facility to minimize dust at entry points ▪️ We installed an additional air filtration system that effectively purifies airflow at every stage of ventilation ▪️ We regularly maintain both ventilation and filtration systems to ensure a stable environment for equipment operation We pay attention to every detail — because we know that the longevity of your machines and the consistency of your income depend on a controlled environment 📩 Ready to start mining?
