Which countries are miners moving to? According to the media reports, most of the devices (more than 1,8 million miners out of a total of 2 million) were imported to Russia. Other popular destinations include Kazakhstan, the US, and Canada.
The large-scale relocation of capacities to other countries continues amid the introduction of a total ban on mining in the Middle Kingdom. According to Vitaly Borschenko, co-founder of the Russian mining host BitCluster, the company has deployed more than 5000 cryptocurrency mining devices in 2 months alone. All the equipment was transported from China.
