🔥Hot off the press! CleanSpark's recent acquisition of a Wyoming crypto-mining site has been declared a national security threat by the White House. 🏛️ The order, marking the first presidential prohibition under the expanded authority of CFIUS, has thrown a wrench into the deal. But CleanSpark isn't backing down! 💪
The site, previously owned by MineOne, a company with Chinese ties, is located near a U.S. nuclear missile base. The order cites foreign-sourced technology as a threat and demands all mining equipment be removed. 🚧
CleanSpark, unaware of the order prior to purchase, plans to press on with the deal. They aim to bolster national security and benefit economic development, particularly in Wyoming, a pro-Bitcoin state. 🚀
The $19M deal depends on securing massive amounts of energy to run the business. The larger property is just 4,000 feet from Warren Air Force Base. 🏞️
