Sustainable

bitcoin mining

We build, own and operate mining facilities in the United States to support and secure the Bitcoin network. Our experience in Bitcoin mining has shown us that there is a shortage of reliable, vertically integrated, US-based miners. We decided to build our own, 100% owned and operated by Megawatt.

Vertically integrated US-based miner

Process

Bitcoin mining process

Bitcoin transactions

Bitcoin transactions from the network are pooled together in a block.

Task solving/Mining

Once a block is formed, miners compete to solve the block puzzle.

Transaction verification

Once solved, the transactions in the block are "verified" by the network.

Block Confirmation

The new block of verified transactions is attached to a chain of prior blocks, hence "blockchain".

Block reward

For solving the puzzle, miners are rewarded with Bitcoin. Currently, 3.125 BTC per block. Blocks are solved on avg. every 10 minutes.
