4,657 bitcoins were mined since Monday. After Friday’s price jump to above $48,000, all miners are enjoying the weekend.
Nation states took center stage in the latest mining news cycles. Iran’s mining ban ended. El Salvador started mining with volcanoes. Kazakhstan is considering new rules for power consumption by miners. And China’s latest round of bans caused multiple
pools to leave the country or close entirely.
Thanks for reading Mining Memo this weekend. Our team has a ridiculous amount of great mining content coming in Q4, and we’re excited to send it to your inbox. Enjoy the memes, videos, headlines and articles below, and happy hashing.
