BitRiver believes the Siberia region in Russia is the optimal place to build this additional mining capacity given the region’s substantial production of inexpensive hydro power, cold climate, and inexpensive land and real estate. Combining all these factors, we believe will result in a superior profitability as well as in a better protection from downwards movements of the cryptocurrency market. BitRiver operates at the bottom of the cost curve which acts as a natural hedge with respect to the price of Bitcoin. Because of its low cost structure, BitRiver can remain profitable even if the price of Bitcoin were to fall 85% over two years. Show less
