$BTC MINING FACES REGIONAL BANS IN RUSSIA FROM 2026 🔥
Russian Ministry of Energy targets mining in Moscow City, Moscow Oblast, and Kursk Oblast starting July 1, 2026, through 2032. The assessment counts 65 data centers in those regions, consuming 734 megawatts of total power — 233 megawatts from 19 facilities in Moscow Oblast alone.
This regulatory shift affects roughly 0.5-1% of global hashrate based on estimated regional concentration. Miners may redirect operations to other regions, but the uncertainty could pressure BTC hash price in the near term.
