New York Governor Signs Law Partially Banning Bitcoin Mining on Fossil Fuels
A moratorium on some crypto mining operations relying on carbon-based energy has been signed into law in New York. Businesses engaged in proof-of-work mining in the state will not be able to expand or renew their permits for the next two years as a result of the ban.
New York Governor Kathy Hochul signed a law on Tuesday partially banning cryptocurrency mining using power generated from fossil fuels. The legislation will prevent companies involved in proof-of-work (PoW) mining that don’t use solely renewable energy such as hydropower from expanding, and renewing or obtaining new permits in the next two years.
