An Nvidia-backed startup is planning to establish a Bitcoin mining operation in space. Starcloud will fire up its cryptocurrency mining ASICs after its second spacecraft reaches orbit later this year, according to CEO Philip Johnston.
In an interview, Johnston stated that the company aims to be 'the first to mine Bitcoin in space.'
The second spacecraft is set to launch later this year and will contain Bitcoin mining ASICs. This marks a significant step forward for the company's plans to establish a space-based cryptocurrency mining operation.
