Cryptocurrency Miners Make Big Promises In Small Towns

Massena, N.Y., perched on the northernmost border of New York state, is the archetype of the company town that has lost its companies.

Downtown there’s a pillared town hall and a Main Street lined with stately old buildings, along with an empty union hall, a couple of banks and restaurants, and a bunch of vacant storefronts — echoes of the town’s more prosperous past.

Aluminum giant Alcoa drove the town’s growth in the 1900s, attracted by the plentiful electricity generated by a nearby hydropower dam on the St. Lawrence River. But Alcoa has downsized greatly over the last decade. General Motors and Reynolds Metal plants closed, too. Massena has hemorrhaged hundreds of jobs.

That’s why back in January, Massena’s Town Supervisor Steven O’Shaughnessy was over the moon when – rather suddenly – companies that do something called “Bitcoin mining” came knocking. “They need lots of power, and they need to be able to count on it,” O’Shaughnessy says. “And we can provide that.”

The firms promised millions of dollars in investment and hundreds of jobs.

Bitcoin…mining?

A quick primer on “Bitcoin mining”: Bitcoin is the best known of the digital or crypto-currencies – which operate completely independently of banks. Instead, they rely on powerful computers around the world to verify every transaction that uses a digital coin. People operating those computers earn new coins for doing that verification work. That’s called mining.

Hundreds of computers at Digital Skynet’s facility in Massena, N.Y., connect with millions of others around the world to process cryptocurrency transactions. That work consumes vast amounts of electricity.

So companies eager to get into the cryptocurrency game have been setting up huge warehouses full of computers all around the world to mine digital coins. Cool climates are best; the computers generate a lot of heat. But more than that, mining servers gobble up vast amounts of electricity.

According to the Digiconomist blog that follows cryptocurrencies, all the Bitcoin mining computers worldwide consume more power collectively than the entire nation of Czech Republic. And as more mining companies seek their digital fortunes, that energy consumption is only increasing.

That quest for cheap power – remember the hydropower plant on the St. Lawrence that fueled Alcoa? – is why a Hong Kong-based company called Digital Skynet Limited came to Massena and set up hundreds of computers in an old factory on the outskirts of town.

Inside a Bitcoin mine

Inside the converted factory, spokesperson Tina Barksdale, wearing a comfortable blue cardigan and slacks, points to five shelves stacked with humming, shoebox-sized computers. “Those are the miners, and as you can hear, they make a lot of noise,” she shouts above the din of large cooling fans.

Barksdale says Digital Skynet employs 20 people here now. But she imagines something much bigger – many more computers, and also the seeds of an innovation hub for the technology behind cryptocurrency, known as blockchain. She envisions a transformation for the town of Massena, “from being just Massena, N.Y, to being a cryptocurrency ‘Silicon Valley’, a place where people in cryptocurrency come,” she says.

Barksdale says there could be hundreds of new technology jobs – and the support services that go with them.

“But of course,” she cautions, “it all depends on the power.”

Tina Barksdale and her brother, Eli Barksdale, manage Digital Skynet’s cryptocurrency mining operation in Massena, N.Y. Right now, they employ about 20 people, but they envision a digital currency innovation hub in the town that would create hundreds of jobs.

A gold rush for digital coins

When the value of a traded Bitcoin soared to almost $20,000 late last year, a Bitcoin mining rush hit lots of places with cheap power, from Louisiana to Washington State.

But the job benefits were limited; it only takes so many employees to keep an eye on a bunch of computers. And in some places, the power-hungry miners started driving up electric rates for everybody else. Near Massena, the city of Plattsburgh, N.Y. put a moratorium on new mines because of rising electric bills.

So local leaders, like New York State Senator Joe Griffo, who represents Massena, began to ask, will cryptocurrency mining really create enough jobs to justify using all that electricity? And will those jobs last? “I would not dismiss [the industry] out of hand, but I think you need to look at things realistically,” Griffo says. “Where’s Bitcoin going to go over time?”

Digital currency values have been all over the place. Bitcoin itself has steadily dropped for most of this year. So the big question is: if the price keeps dropping, will the miners stick around?

Seeking a more energy-efficient technology

Lex Sokolin isn’t so sure. Sokolin calls himself a “financial futurist.” He studies digital currencies and the blockchain digital bookkeeping technology they rely on for Autonomous Research in London, and he believes cryptocurrency has a promising future. But he thinks it’s inevitable that developers will come up with a more energy-efficient way to mine them.

“It just seems preposterous to me because the amount of electricity that’s being used in it is growing and growing and growing,” Sokolin says. “I think the community will try to find a different way to do this.”

If that prediction is accurate, towns like Massena would lose their advantage.

Digital Skynet’s Tina Barksdale says that very uncertainty is why Massena should embrace Bitcoin mining now – to establish its position in the fast-moving digital currency economy.


A Look Inside A Cryptocurrency Mine

Hundreds of computers run night and day. Each one is basically a little supercomputer. They work on solving the complex equations that cough up cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.

It’s happening right now in a warehouse in the Massena Industrial Park.

“Right now, Massena has the capacity to be the Silicon Valley for cryptocurrency,” said Tina Barksdale, Skynet Digital spokesperson.

More than a dozen people work at Skynet Digital. Basically it’s all about monitoring the stacks of computers. Any problem occurs, it has to be fixed. Cooling is also a huge job. The cold climate helps. The mining is being done for Ormeus Coin.

“I think what most people in the local community should understand is that this is the way the future of money going,” said Tina Barksdale.

Skynet Digital is not the only cryptocurrency miner in Massena. Coinmint has leased the former Alcoa East smelter. Blockchain Industries wants to buy town land to build on. Local officials are cautious.

“It’s a learning curve and we are learning, but we are finding out about it. And we want to make sure it’s here to stay. And we certainly hope it will,” said Steven O’Shaughnessy, Massena town supervisor.

The profitability of cryptocurrency miners depends on the cost of electricity. Some have asked the New York Power Authority for discounts.

“It’s basically a gold rush. The gold that is here is the hydro-dam. It’s the power and the cheap electricity that’s here,” said Tina Barksdale.

Skynet Digital is small but wants to grow bigger. Elijah Barksdale is managing it. He, six brothers, and his sister are all working for the company. They were raised in Richville.

“We’re from upstate New York and we understand the job disparities of this area and we wanted to be able to bring something back to the community,” said Tina Barksdale.

Skynet Digital is training a people for that something bigger. It mines cryptocurrencies for Ormeus Coin, which is making a play to become one of the world’s top 10 cryptocurrency miners.


Russian Central Bank Cracks Down on Cryptocurrency

The Russian government is currently keeping all cryptocurrency owners in the country on their toes as it decided to crackdown on cryptocurrency websites.

The Russian government is currently keeping all cryptocurrency owners in the country on their toes as it decided to crackdown on cryptocurrency websites.

Taas.com reports Russia’s Central Bank’s First Deputy Chairman Sergey Shvetsov, as saying that the bank welcomes imposing any restrictions on operations of external websites. Though the government has said that its decision to ban external websites dealing on cryptocurrencies is premised on the fact that cryptocoins pose a risk to its citizens and businesses, this reason is highly doubtful.

In the past months, the government and its financial regulatory agencies have been considering descending the sledge hammer on the heads of cryptocurrency traders and exchanges. The reasons advanced for their actions, though may hold some water, may not really be why such harsh actions are being taken.

Cryptocurrencies, especially bitcoin have been seen as serious threats to fiat currencies and the gains derived from printing them. Since blockchain was brought into the financial market scene, it has been considered a serious technology capable of upsetting the ways things are done in the system.
Bitcoin, for instance, has been widely accepted as the digital currency of choice for financial transactions online and for payment for goods and services. And since it is decentralized, Bitcoin, Ethereum and some other carefully selected cryptocoins have made things relatively easier, reducing the confirmation time for financial transactions, and putting you fully in charge of your own portfolio with no external interference from banks and other financial regulatory agencies. This indeed has become a source of worries for several governments across the globe.

First Deputy Chairman Sergey Shvetsov has openly declared that the Bank saw “all cryptocurrency derivatives to be a negative development on the Russian market and do not consider it possible to support it.”

The ban on external websites comes on the heels of the recent complaints by the Russian President Vladimir Putin, who had earlier demanded for the banning of cryptocurrencies, bitcoin in particular, asserting that they could be used for money laundering, evading taxes, and terrorism financing. The president went on to say that bitcoin itself is a pyramid scheme.

Sputnik reported last month that the head of the Central Bank of Russia, Elvira Nabiullina, has said “we are categorically opposed to introducing cryptocurrencies in regulation as a monetary asset.”

While addressing reporters, the Deputy Finance Minister has stated vehemently that the country would not make Bitcoin payments legal.


Central Australian Bank Might Soon Launch Cryptocurrency

FinTech companies in Australia have been demanding that the central Australian bank issue the Digital Australian Dollar.

Several Australia-based FinTech startups have submitted proposals to the Australian central bank and Federal Treasury to create a state-sponsored Australian cryptocurrency, the Digital Australian Dollar.

According to the Australian Financial Review, three prominent FinTech startups, including FlashFX, AgriDigital, and Othera, have approached the bank via the industry advocacy group FinTech Australia, as well as the governmental FinTech Advisory Group. These startups have urged the bank to give due consideration to creating the Digital Australian Dollar (DAD). According to reports, the DAD will be linked to the current fiat Australian currency, and reportedly is set to confirm the country’s growing blockchain enthusiasm, according to FinTech Australia chief executive, Danielle Szetho.

According to Szetho, key stakeholders such as the RBA will ensure a relationship based on trust when Australian users are introduced to cryptocurrencies. While, being linked to fiat currency, the DAD will not be able to undermine the current stability of the current Australian currency.
So far Szetho proved a critical advocate for the cryptocurrency, while also being critical of the Australian government's delay in delivering on their promise to end double taxation in the case of cryptocurrency transactions. The double taxation was finally ended this year.
FlashF, based in Sydney, was one of the pioneering startups which provided financial services to facilitate blockchain related activities. While all three startups have their own tokens, they argued that the DAD would be more powerful than any other digitized version of the Australian dollar, as well as create trust amongst Australian citizens.

According to FlashFX chief enabling officers, Nicolas Steiger, a DAD endorsed by the government would encourage increased trust and certainty amongst users. In addition, implementing the DAD would lead to immense growth in the marketplace. Lastly, it would discourage unofficial parties to release unendorsed digital Australian dollars.

Another advocate for state-backed cryptocurrency is the blockchain startup, AgriDigital, who facilitates transactions between farmers and buyers.
While AgriDigital uses blockchain to record, store, and facilitate transactions, payments are still in the fiat currency. This is mainly due to the volatility of cryptocurrency.

According to AgriDigital co-founder, Emma Weston, a state-sponsored DAD would make payments easier and more convenient.
The last startup, Othera, manages digital loan contracts that are based on blockchain technology. According to Othera’s chief executive, the company is currently pressed to work with existing legacy payment systems in the financial industry in order to process payments from loan borrowers before they can forward payments to the token holders of the contract.

John Pellew, CEO of Othera stated that the current system is a slow and painful process which does not sufficiently utilize the full scope of what blockchain technology has to offer. A DAD would enable all companies to unlock a significantly quicker and more convenient payment technology.
According to reports, the Australian central bank is currently engaged in reviewing the proposals and launching an investigation before they will reveal their decision.
