A watershed event for the mining industry. Zero carbon mining! coindesk.com/business/2022/… @elonmusk #green

@BSI_UK just verified that @BitRiverMining had zero carbon emission in 2H2021! #greenmining #NetZero

Desire for anything increases with restriction and prohibition. Regulation will only accelerate the adoption of #bitcoin

Jan. 27 Igor Runets took part in a Russian parliament working session on the regulation of the mining industry. The participants strongly believe that the mining industry regulation will contribute to the economic growth due to a broader tax base and job creation.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has stated that Russia has competitive advantages in mining due to its qualified personnel and the surplus of electricity. Mr Putin asked the Government and the Central Bank to reach a consensus decision on the cryptocurrency regulation in Russia.

25, January Igor Runets, founder and CEO of BitRiver, delivered a speech on “Data centers as digital economy point of growth” within RABC Forum at Expo 2020 Dubai. This topic was of keen interest to our Russian and Middle East current and potential partners and customers.

@adam_masato Nothing new, as Russia is working on creating balanced regulation stakeholders are just reiterating their positions

@IgorRunets any insight into the potential Russian mining ban?

Russian State Duma has created a working group on the issue of the cryptocurrency market legislative regulation. It will convey the stakeholders position to the President of Russia. Russia today has a real opportunity to become a world leader in digital financial technologies.

Dear colleagues! We are happy to wish you the best Merry Christmas! Peace, happiness and great success in your business! BitRiver will be pleased to strengthen cooperation with you in the new year!

Dear colleagues, we are glad to announce that our Moscow office has moved to a new larger building at Anneskaya str. 17.

On December 9-10, Moscow International Forum of Innovative Development was jointly organized by RACIB and BitRiver. Igor Gordeev, BitRiver Chief Commercial Officer moderated the session where our speaker Anton Nemtsov, spoke on mining as the engine for economic growth in Russia.

Business intelligence firm MicroStrategy is stacking up its #Bitcoin: its holdings are valued at more than $5.9 billion—making over $2.2 billion in gains. Will this be the norm for big companies? Who will be next, do you think? cointelegraph.com/news/microstra…

#Bitcoin mining is big in Kazakhstan. But it is straining the country's power grid and the government is now trying to better regulate mining. We have always focused on sustainable mining using renewables, and work with regulators at all levels to ensure compliance.

We are honored to be included in @APompliano's newsletter looking at the most breathtaking #Bitcoin mines 😎😁 Scroll down to see the snaps from our data center! pomp.substack.com/p/10-epic-bitc…

@Stephan41439474 @bakebtc Building new power plans are economically and ecologically wrong when existing hydro generation is less than half utilized

@IgorRunets @bakebtc ok, so other users electricity consumption has to be non green. thats 82% of russian production. (65% if nuclear is green). en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrici… so other users need more gas/coal power plants. your argument is greenwashing unless you build your own power plants.

The 4 Possible Scenarios For #Bitcoin in The Long Term, if Bitcoin becomes as and price reach: 1) a Digital Gold - $80K/BTC; 2) an Alternative asset - $250K/BTC; 3) a Medium of Exchange - $500K/BTC; 4) a Legal Tender - $1000K/BTC.

@Stephan41439474 @bakebtc please note the word “excess”. Mining is geographically neutral industry and might be easily colocated with green generations. At the same time other industries tend to close to areas with dense population where generation coincidently is not green.

@Stephan41439474 @bakebtc Our operations are CO2 free, many other operators have chosen same strategy. Miners understood that excessive renewable power is the way to go long before many other industries did so.

@bakebtc @IgorRunets main scenario - all countries forbid mining due to high co2 cost. 0 USD/BTC
