United States promotes ‘crypto’ aspiration in the middle of environmental crisis
The United States has solidified its position as the global leader in block benefit mining, commanding over 40% of the world’s hash rate as of May 2025. The Trump administration’s pro-crypto stance has accelerated the digital mining market’s growth, with relaxed environmental regulations and streamlined permitting processes driving the development of new mining facilities. Texas, with its deregulated energy market and abundant natural gas, emerges as a prime location for block reward mining. The U.S.’s dominance in Bitcoin mining is expected to persist, but miners need to navigate tariff risks, energy fluctuations, and community concerns to sustain their competitive edge.
