Frequently Asked Questions
Bitcoin mining is the process through which the Bitcoin network confirms transactions without any intermediary taking a cut. Bitcoin miners operate special computers that require the use of energy to a) protect the network from attack, b) verify legitimate transactions, and c) incentivize miners for their work in the form of newly minted coins. Through this process, the Bitcoin network settles roughly $20 billion USD in transactions per day, and it has the capability to scale to $1 trillion per day.
The Mining Engineer Fellowship is two years long.
Applications are accepted on a rolling basis. Submissions will be evaluated as they are received. There is no deadline to apply.
Cryptocurrency is digital currency that does not rely on any central authority. Transactions are verified and records are maintained using blockchain technology—a network of computers that stores data in a decentralized and secure manner.
Mining Engineers support the Mining Operations team by servicing and maintaining miners, installing units, programming miners with appropriate software, performing repairs as needed and more.

You send your Bitcoin mining hardware (such as ASIC miners) to our hosting facility. We set up your equipment, connect it to their power supply and network, ensure proper cooling and security. We monitor and maintain your hardware, and you access the mining output remotely.
Bitcoin miner hosting refers to the practice of renting space in a data center or mining facility to house Bitcoin mining hardware. We develop and own facilities that provide the necessary power, cooling, security, and internet connectivity required for mining.
Profitability depends on several factors, including the price of Bitcoin, network difficulty, your mining hardware’s efficiency, electricity rates, and the hosting fees. Hosting your miners in our facilities with lower electricity costs can help improve profitability, especially compared to operating your own mining setup.
We provide 24/7 support by phone or email.
Yes electricity is included as part of the hosting plans. There are no other hidden costs.
After the equipment is purchased the main cost is electricity, premises, cooling and maintenance. We take care of all of this with our hosting service.
It depends on your attitude to risk. The less conventional coins can offer the highest returns but you will need to manage them closely and exchange them quite often.
If you are hosting your mining farm with us, it will be located in our secure facility in United States.
It is your equipment so you own it. We can host your equipment in our dedicated facility for you – but you still own your equipment.
No, we only offer mining farms. And for GPU rigs we have an MOQ of 10 off
The main risk is the value of the coins when it comes to selling them. Cryptocurrencies are very volatile by nature – hence the massive reward but also risk. If you need to sell your coins – and convert them to Fiat (cash) – to pay for your running costs then the potential returns due to appreciation of the coins will reduced.
If we are hosting your equipment we will set up your miners to your own cryptocurrency wallet. If you purchase our mining equipment we will help you set up your own wallets.
We will guide you all the way through the potential ROI and passive income. We can help you with your investment strategy. ROI can be from 2 years to 6 months depending on the price of the coins at the time of selling them.
Mining farms are a collection of mining equipment which are used to mine cryptocurrency coins. We offer small to large farms, depending on budget and electrical availability. Our mining farms are ASIC and GPU based. Typical coins mined on a standard contract are Bitcoin, Etherium, Litecoin and Zcash.
