Granbury, <a href="https://ultramining.com/news/en/texas-residents-challenge-bitcoin-mining-industrys-impact-on-power-grid-and-communities/">Texas</a>, has recently witnessed a significant development in its battle against noise pollution caused by Bitcoin mining. <a href="https://ultramining.com/news/en/major-bitcoin-mining-pool-foundry-usa-to-introduce-fee-structure/">US</a> Bitcoin Corp, located near the Wolf Hollow data center, has completed a massive soundproofing project. The wall, standing at an impressive 24 feet high and spanning nearly 2,000 feet, is a response to the local community's concerns about the constant noise from the site's cooling fans.

Bitcoin mining, the backbone of cryptocurrency operations, involves a network of computers running Bitcoin code to validate transactions and add them to the blockchain. This process, essential for the generation and circulation of new Bitcoin, requires substantial computational power and, consequently, intensive cooling to prevent overheating. The Granbury site, one of North America's largest, operates 70,000 to 90,000 supercomputers, making noise management a significant challenge.
