To summarise things
''While the first 50 bitcoins were probably mined in the UK or Japan (only Satoshi Nakamoto knows the truth), nowadays these countries have no place in industrial bitcoin mining. Today the world’s centre for cracking out bitcoin blocks is China. And the three largest mining pools – Antpool, F2Pool and BTCC Pool – are Chinese.''
