Tether Ventures Boldly Into Bitcoin Mining, Anticipates Major Market Share Growth
Creating a strong foothold in the stablecoin market, Tether (CRYPTO: USDT) is now looking to enter the Bitcoin mining space with a significant investment.
Tether（CRYPTO：USDT）在穩定幣市場上站穩了腳跟，現在正尋求通過大量投資進入比特幣採礦領域。
In the past year, Tether's market cap has grown by 32.7%, reflecting its prominent presence in the cryptocurrency market.
在過去的一年中，Tether的市值增長了32.7％，反映了其在加密貨幣市場中的突出地位。
What Happened: Tether's incoming CEO Paolo Ardoino announced plans to spend almost $500 million over the upcoming six months to expand into the Bitcoin mining industry, Bloomberg reported. It plans to build mining facilities or acquire stakes in other companies.
發生了什麼：彭博社報道，Tether即將上任的首席執行官保羅·阿爾多伊諾宣佈計劃在未來六個月內花費近5億美元擴展到比特幣採礦業。它計劃建造採礦設施或收購其他公司的股份。
Tether announced a $610 million credit facility to Bitcoin mining company, Northern Data AG in November after it had acquired shares in the firm in September.
Tether於11月宣佈向比特幣礦業公司Northern Data AG提供6.1億美元的信貸額度，此前該公司於9月份收購了該公司的股份。
This step could not only diversify Tether's profit avenues but also could shuffle competition levels for USDT's finite token supply. Currently, Tether makes money from managing U.S. Treasury bills and other assets in USDT's $87 billion reserve, accumulating around $3.2 billion in excess cash as of Sep. 30, 2023.
這一舉措不僅可以使Tether的盈利途徑多樣化，而且還可能改變USDT有限代幣供應的競爭水平。目前，Tether通過管理USDT的870億美元儲備中的美國國庫券和其他資產來賺錢，截至2023年9月30日，累積了約32億美元的多餘現金。
Ardoino will become Tether CEO in December 2023 and will also retain his chief technical officer position at parent company Bitfinex.
阿爾多伊諾將於2023年12月出任泰達幣首席執行官，還將保留其在母公司Bitfinex的首席技術官職位。

Why It Matters: Tether is currently evaluating a potential site with a 300-megawatt capacity where mining operations will be profitable amid rising Bitcoin prices (up 26% in the past month).
爲何重要：Tether目前正在評估一個容量爲300兆瓦的潛在場地，在比特幣價格上漲的情況下，該場地的採礦業務將實現盈利（在過去一個月中上漲了26％）。
The company has also established facilities within large containers for rapid relocation to areas where electricity is more affordable, Bloomberg reports.
彭博社報道，該公司還在大型集裝箱內建立了設施，可快速遷移到電力更實惠的地區。
Tether is building Bitcoin mines in Uruguay, Paraguay, and El Salvador, with the capacity for each site ranging between 40 and 70 megawatts.The company aims to increase its portion of the total computing power for the Bitcoin network to 1%, compared to Marathon Digital's 4%.
Tether正在烏拉圭、巴拉圭和薩爾瓦多建造比特幣礦山，每個礦場的容量在40至70兆瓦之間。該公司的目標是將其在比特幣網絡總計算能力中所佔的比例提高到1％，而Marathon Digital的比例爲4％。
By 2023 end, Tether looks to reach 120 megawatts across its direct mining operations, and by 2025 its forecast stands at 450 megawatts. The stablecoin issuer has earmarked approximately $150 million for investment in mining opportunities where Tether is actively involved.
到2023年底，Tether的直接採礦業務有望達到120兆瓦，到2025年，其預測爲450兆瓦。穩定幣發行人已撥款約1.5億美元，用於投資泰達幣積極參與的採礦機會。
