NYDIG announces acquisition of Crusoe Bitcoin mining business

ChainCatcher news, Bitcoin financial services company NYDIG announced that it has reached a final agreement to acquire Crusoe's Bitcoin mining business. The acquisition includes 270 megawatts of power generation technology that can convert associated natural gas into mining power. After the transaction is completed, the Crusoe team will be integrated into NYDIG's power and Bitcoin mining division, and both parties will continue to maintain strategic cooperation in the AI data center field.

NYDIG's parent company Stone Ridge holds 10GW of natural gas assets in the United States, and this acquisition will create synergies with its energy business. Crusoe's "digital emissions reduction" technology has been deployed in over 20 mining sites across 7 states in the U.S. and Argentina. NYDIG founder Ross Stevens stated that this integration will reduce the operational costs of Bitcoin network security while promoting the efficient use of energy resources.
