The strategic value of cryptocurrency mining has gone beyond imagination, and the global mining competition has formally entered a fiery stage. However, as the price of cryptocurrency keep fluctuating, the market is still highly volatile, and the pressure to challenge the global cryptocurrency mining industry will continue to expand.


According to statistics, the cryptocurrency mining industry has now formed a market of 100 billion CNY in the world. The situation of the rise of large international players has gradually formed. Is it a mutually beneficial and win-win situation? This is an important turning point for the global cryptocurrency mining industry, and it is also an opportunity for cooperation among miners.
