Bitmain, a manufacturer of cryptocurrency mining hardware and operator of crypto mining pools, announced on Friday it is planning to launch a platform to connect mining hardware owners with mining farm owners through the World Digital Mining Map (WDMM). The company reported:
“To remain price-efficient, owners of mining hardware are regularly on the lookout for locations with the right conditions and power resources for cryptocurrency mining. The WDMM will be the first global resource to connect them with mining farms who have the available power resources to host them for a fee.”
While sharing more details about the platform, Matthew Wang, Director of Mining Farm of Bitmain, stated:
“The WDMM will help make cryptocurrency mining more sustainable in the long-run by connecting mining farms and hardware owners in a whole new way. It is part of our commitment to provide miners with on-going support throughout their hardware’s lifetime and to support the sector’s overall growth.”
Bitmain then noted that mining farm owners can apply to be listed on the WDMM during the WDMS. Applicants will need to provide details on their current mining farm setup and capacity to host other miners. Bitman went on to add:
“In return, participants will be given personalized services from Bitmain which includes assistance with mining farm design, connections to foreign customers to host, and support with operations, purchasing and construction.”
