๐ Big news for Bhutan! ๐ง๐น
The massive 500 MW Bitcoin mining facility in Jigmeling (operated by Bitdeer) is now up and running โ currently operating at 424 MW (with full capacity expected soon after fixing a substation issue).
This green-powered operation (using our clean hydropower) is actively generating Bitcoins every day! Bitdeerโs overall mines (including Bhutan's share) produced 636 Bitcoins in December 2025 alone, with Bitcoin priced around $94,000+.
For Bhutan, this means:
Valuable USD revenue from taxes, land lease, and power sales
Jobs for dozens of Bhutanese locals
A smart way to monetize energy while keeping residents' power needs first
Even in winter, when we import power, the mine keeps going strong!
Bhutan continues to lead in sustainable crypto mining. What do you think about this futuristic step for our economy? ๐ฐ๐
