Chinese bitcoin mining outfit builds huge data centre
 

The Chinese bitcoin mining outfit Bitmain, is building a massive 45 building solar-powered data centre complex in China.

The complex will be the world’s third most powerful data centre and will operate primarily on wind and solar power. According to Bitmain the entire centre will be dedicated primarily to bitcoin mining and it plans to open source the centre’s detailed plans. Bitmain is hoping that this will improve data centre efficiency for bitcoin miners worldwide.

Jihan Wu, Co-CEO of Bitmain, said: “We have seen that most data centres in the mining industry are wasting considerable money or other resources. We want to provide a more professional and cost-saving example to the industry.”
