Access Wire
VANCOUVER, B.C / ACCESSWIRE / April, 17, 2014 / Bitminer.cc LTD,
a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Bitcoin Capital Corp., is
pleased to announce that it has entered into a memorandum of
understanding to acquire the assets of Bitcoin mining company
Alydian.
Due to a previously signed non-disclosure agreement and relevant
SEC regulations, the companies can not disclose the terms of the
MOU at this time.
Alydian, a portfolio company of venture-backed Bitcoin business
incubator CoinLab, Inc., was launched in 2012 to deliver
enterprise-scale turnkey Bitcoin mining services for qualified
customers.
Located in several U.S. data centers, Alydian’s Bitcoin hardware
is capable of mining Bitcoins at approximately 215 terahashes per
second. The company’s Bitcoin mining rigs were designed to solve
complex mathematical algorithms in order to mine the virtual
currency.
Alydian is ranked as one of the top three Bitcoin miners on
BTCGuild.com, one of the world’s largest Bitcoin mining pools where
multiple mining companies combine their computer processing
resources to generate bitcoins.
First Bitcoin Capital Corp. said the move signifies a vital step
in its plan to expand its mining operations.
“Since First Bitcoin Capital Corp. is the first
vertically-integrated publically traded Bitcoin consolidator, we
believe that being involved in mining and manufacturing of Bitcoin
mining hardware will give us an advantage in this fast-growing
crypto-currency arena”- management commented.
The company said its hardware integrates a custom-designed
application-specific integrated circuit, or ASIC, a microchip that
is designed to perform the hashing algorithms necessary to verify
transactions on the Bitcoin network and mine coin. Eventually, the
company plans to develop its own bitcoin mining technology.
“We plan on initiating a mass production of chips using 20nm
process technology, which will allow us to make very complex and
highly-integrated system on chips.”
Mining Bitcoin and other digital currency requires the operation
of expensive and powerful computing equipment, which uses
substantial amounts of electricity to perform complex algorithms.
The mining process gets increasingly difficult as more Bitcoins are
mined, driving the demand for computing power even higher.
Industry experts say that while prospecting may not be an ideal
investment for the average individual, it can lead to massive
potential earnings for large bitcoin mining companies that are able
to scale operations and save costs on cooling and power, while
making their computers more efficient and cost effective.
At least two of the top mining companies have generated profits
solely from mining. Stockholm-based KnCMiner’s computers mined
21,000 Bitcoins, according to the company’s co-founder. The chief
executive officer of Cloud Hashing, which allows individuals to buy
computing capacity and share in profits, said the company mines
about $230,000 to $260,000 worth of Bitcoins per day.
About the company:
Bitminer.cc LTD was formed specifically to acquire and manage
Bitcoin mining assets on behalf of the company. Bitminer.cc LTD
plans to join the BTCGuild.com mining pool.
First Bitcoin Capital Corp. is a developing Canadian-based
mining company currently holding concessions of Gold in Venezuela
and is preparing to enter the crypto-currency industry. It is the
first publicly traded, vertically-integrated consolidation company
of the Bitcoin and crypto-currency marketplace.
