Iran Bitcoin Miners Set Up Shop In Mosques Amid Gov't Crackdown

 

Iranian bitcoin miners are moving into mosques as the government launches an energy crackdown, social media users revealed on June 25.

 

CoinTelegraph's William Suberg reports that Iran, which offers free energy to mosques, now has around 100 miners occupying places of worship, generating much-needed income of around $260,000 a year.

 

“This money goes a long way in Iran’s choked sanctioned economy,” Oxford University researcher Mahsa Alimardani explained on Twitter.
