MAaaN...!! CUT THAT STUPID SHIT
China used to be known as the largest bitcoin mining country, but in the end they were strictly banned by the government and many miners at that time turned to other countries, to find safety so as not to become wasteful and violate government regulations, there are several countries that ban bitcoin mining because of the many flows they spend but all will run fast if the government can regulate bitcoin mining in their country then this will work with  seriously and I believe the government can also benefit immensely.

Bitcoin mining ban in China does have a significant impact. When Bitcoin was Illegal and banned, all bitcoin miners in China began to move to several countries that still allowed bitcoin mining and still provided full regulation for bitcoin. The role of the government regarding regulation will be very important for the growth of bitcoin and some bitcoin miners. The regulations given are also balanced with sufficient electrical resources to support bitcoin mining. That is indeed one of the factors why China does not allow bitcoin miners anymore. Waste of electricity resources and the increase in temperature continues to occur.
The need to regulate Bitcoin miners is to be more planned, and the use of electric power is not too bloated. There must be alternative technologies made so that they do not have a negative impact on everything with various interests from all parties involved.

I get all my graphic cards from china because it's the closest foreign country to mine, and my suppliers have told me what was going on with crypto miners in China, it was like a war on drug, the government hate the sight of Asic miners and only those selling to other foreign countries are left to do their businesses, you can't be in china and be mining Bitcoin.

China did take the lead of the largest bitcoin mining in the world but there’s an abrupt decline to that some years back after there was total ban of bitcoin by the country. Satoshi Nakamoto the inventor of bitcoin has been mostly attributed to being an Asia man, more like a Japanese name, maybe that gave them the opportunity to become the largest miners in the world then.

Over the years, many countries have taken over and now lead china in the world largest bitcoin miners. The importance and use of digital currencies cannot be overemphasized anymore, all other countries have found interest in mining and are all utilizing the opportunity of owning the largest share of bitcoin in the world.

Probably you didn't do a recent findings. China do not occupy such position even in the first place Americans does. Remember during Russian x Ukraine, China roll over some units of bitcoins to Ukraine as support which even bring them down the more. America has almost 40% of bitcoin mining.

Though China where very active in mining and they were ready go above any country since it was booming economy in the digital market.

Mining is an extremely productive part of the business. Mining of cryptocurrency is the process of confirming transactions before they are placed on blockchain. China is the world’s largest producer of bitcoin mining. There are 6 major mining farms in china presently that produce 60 % of bitcoin supply all around the world!

What is your point of you on this?
Can you give those places where those mining operations are happening? It's because the news that we've probably seen a year or more ago was all about cracking down miners and everything that's related to bitcoin there.

But whether we like it or not, mining from everywhere in there won't stop even if the government steps in. Those miners will still find a way to use their miners as those investments from their equipment weren't that cheap to be stuck.

I have also seen that China is the biggest cryptocurrency mining country in the world.  Maybe we will get a lot of data out there but my friend from China once said that many Chinese people work in Bitcoin mining.  This is the real thing.  At that time the price of VGA increased dramatically and my friend was a trader of computer equipment and devices in China.  But that was a long time ago before the Pandemic.  I don't know how cryptocurrency mining is there at the moment but I think it has been on the decline as mining BTC has become harder and harder over the years.

As far as I know China is very behind in bitcoin mining. China was once the leader in Bitcoin mining, but when Bitcoin was banned in China, Bitcoin mining was destroyed. Some were jailed again. As a result of the ban, many miners do not keep bitcoins in their mines, which has already led to the collapse of bitcoin mining companies. Due to the ban some miners moved to different states and started mining there. Now as far as I know there are no miners or mining companies in China.


You may be somewhat true but there are many countries in the world where it is illegal to both use and generate bitcoins, then there are many people in those countries who generate and use bitcoins. I agree with you that when crypto was banned in China it had a huge impact on cryptocurrencies not just Bitcoin. But I heard many countries use bitcoins for cryptocurrency mining and trading.

BTC isn't kept or stored in "mines", BTC is stored in BTC wallets. BTC mining companies also didn't collapse, some of them just relocated out of china because of their hostility to mining, and we cannot also be sure that there aren't some mining companies still mining BTC underground in China and using VPN to hide their IP addresses.
Now as far as I know there are no miners or mining companies in China.
We cannot be 100% sure that mining hashrate in China is now at 0, surely it has gone down, but there are probably secret miners still mining BTC in China.

Even though this could be a bit outdated as well, I think this overview well demonstrates how shares in global mining operations shifted between countries:



The article on Cointelegraph also says that it was Kazakhstan to welcome Chinese miners after the government started cracking down on them.
They used data from CBECI with last data point is in January 2022.

I have my topic about it but with different visualization up to August 2021. I perhaps will update it today or tomorrow with data up to January 2022.

However if you read my topic and follow discussions there, you will see their methodology for data collection have some assumptions and potential weakness.

Only the Assumption 1 is enough to tell us about lack of data accuracy
Quote
Assumption 1: IP addresses of mining facility operators are an accurate indicator of hashrate location.

After a few months of China crackdown on mining. Check it out!

The information was when China was at its peak and the mining costs there isn't that much. Now adding the fact that they even banned bitcoin, miners tried to move to where they can be more productive, so statistics are now equally divided amongst many big time countries in the world. Before only China could proudly show off their mining power but now? not anymore, I will no longer add more sources since there are already plenty of sources given by our fellow members, besides that's the changers over these years.

I will say maybe this your information was an old version of the reality happening as at bow, since China has lay ban on cryptocurrency in general, everything about bitcoin there has been minimized and alot of miners have relocated from China to other part of the countries suitable for them to mine, so i wouldn't admit this for now that China is the largest country having bitcoin miners, they might have been the one in the past but not anymore.

Mining should be encouraged by the community, because without mining the entire crypto ecosystem cannot exist. Unfortunately there are countries where mining is impossible due to too high energy costs (as in Italy). I think that if this activity becomes illegal in the main countries where mining is done today, the crypto system could suffer serious consequences.
There will always be miners as long as bitcoin exists. Miners will always move to a country that is bitcoin friendly. We saw this in China who had the highest mining farm but after the ban on bitcoin and other cryptocurrency, miners relocated to other countries that encourages mining activities like the US and Kazakhstan. Mining consumes more power and their are some countries which cheapest power supply,which will boost up mining.

China is already completely banned Bitcoin including mining, how you can say the largest Bitcoin miners are still operated in China? if someone still dare to mine Bitcoin, it's an illegal miner and sooner or later the police will discover him.

However even Bitcoin already banned in China, it doesn't make the other countries to ban Bitcoin too, so we shouldn't need to be fear when there's a country which want to ban Bitcoin again.

Though keep in mind that one the one hand Tokayev stated “We are ready to go further. If this financial instrument shows its further relevance and security, it will certainly receive full legal recognition”.

But on the other hand this article is just 1.5 months old, stating that energy usage for mining will be limited as they grids can't cope with the load. They also want to distribute official licenses. This once more goes into the direction of coerced control, presumably to the government's financial benefit.

Lol, I never thought that Kazakhstan is mining more than Russia and Canada. The more you know.

Yeah, apparently, the majority of miners who fled China resettled in Kazakhstan and other Central Asian/ex-Soviet countries.

That I'm paying 1 BTC for your time machine.


Don't use that source, they are simply stealing obsolete data from
https://ccaf.io/cbeci/mining_map
without quoting the source and of course the methodology:
https://ccaf.io/cbeci/mining_map/methodology

which clearly states:
Quote
This behavior is best illustrated by the persistently high reported shares of countries like Germany and Ireland where, as far as we can tell, no meaningful mining activities exist.

Second, and more importantly, the whole thing that should be an explanation was written by either a malfunctioning bot or a 7 year old:

Quote
It is also home to a desert where 50,000 computers are established in Ekibastuz so that the miners can get it down.
Here, bitcoin miners work 12-hour shifts for two weeks straight until the bitcoin is mined.
