i guess they should also use the heat and maybe the airflow to produce power  ;D

I wonder how Utah compares to Washington when it comes to competitive mining locations.

Some parts of Utah have pretty cheap power and their winters are cooler than WA.  They are going to have a hell of a time cooling those if they get a heat wave out there.

Anyone know in which mining pool are they going to enroll? I just hope that they do solo mining (they have the capability to do that, unlike the normal miners) and stay away from GHash.io.  ;D

CoinTerra’s total mining power is going to be 800 T Hash/s. (Soon to be increased to 4,000 T Hash/s).
 
The total mining power right now is 86,000 T Hash /s. CoinTerra alone accounts for almost 1% of the total mining power.
