NEW YORK, Aug. 5, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- EcoChain builds and
operates ultra-low-cost green data centers for cryptocurrency
mining. These centers are complex ecosystems of enterprise-grade
equipment that require extensive electricity.
The crypto mining industry is facing several new challenges.
- China's recent measures
against miners. Miners leaving China are in search of data centers with
adequate power, security and guaranteed uptime.
- The chips needed to operate a high hashrate computer used for
mining are in short supply.
- Bitcoin, the most-mined digital asset, is given to wild price
swings, and can be more expensive to mine than to buy.
EcoChain provides solutions to common industry problems.
The company's US-based centers offer access to renewable energy,
adequate rack space, service levels and S19 hardware.
EcoChain's sweet spot
EcoChain is ideally positioned to take advantage of China 'unplugging' from crypto mining,
acquiring lightly used mining equipment and finding new places to
plug it in. The company, recently signed a 25-year lease on a
US-based property that will initially deliver 12 megawatts of
renewable energy. EcoChain is working to secure another 10
megawatts at a second property, and MTI is studying opportunities
to bring another 100 megawatts online. EcoChain forecasts that it
will have 50 megawatts online by year's end.
Generating revenue
As MTI's most profitable unit, EcoChain generated revenue of
$1.7 million and contributed
$1.3 million in earnings in Q2 2021 –
41% more income than forecast.
