Glimpse

Rare

In the latest video posted on ‘X’, Alex v. Frankenberg, a renowned crypto investor, shared rare footage of Bitcoin Mining in the dense jungles of Bhutan, a hermit kingdom located in the Himalayas. Bhutan is one of the leading nations in the world engaged in Bitcoin mining, however, not much is known about the heavily state-sponsored mining operations. 
In the video, Frankenberg urges viewers to listen to the sound of Bitcoin mining rigs, coming from large mining facilities in the hilly regions. The video by Frankenberg gives us a never before seen footage of crypto mining in Bhutan.

Bhutan, known for its peace and harmony with the world, is clearly embracing crypto innovation and capitalizing on it, as the video shows. 
Surprisingly, Frankenberg also informed while replying to his followers that the Bitcoin mining facility in Bhutan is powered entirely by renewable energy from hydropower. He also informed followers that tourists are not allowed to visit near the facility. 
While major nations like the U.S., China, and the U.K. are still debating how to integrate crypto innovations, smaller nations like Bhutan and El Salvador are leaving no stone unturned in embracing their potential. 
Recently, Bhutan <a href="https://www.cryptotimes.io/2024/09/17/bhutan-becomes-4th-largest-bitcoin-holder-with-780m-stash/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">became</a> the fourth-largest holder of Bitcoin, with a total of 13,011 BTC in its reserves, surpassing El Salvador, which holds 5,800 BTC as of August.
