Server Farm?

It would run as a data center/ Server farm,
Basically it is under IT services as Mining basically only does payment processing.

Consider this scenario:

I've facility of 10,000 square feet, LT/HT connection, cooling unit, lease line, and there I've running some instruments day and night. That's it!

Following are questions:
1. Am I doing business? Because, anything that helps us earn 'money/leagal tender' can be categorized as business. Here, I'm earning some stupid codes, known as Bitcoin.
2. Lets call it business! Which category do I belong? Manufacturing, IT services.. or what? What keywords should I use in MOA and AOA?
3. Once, we know category, we'd have another question. Any licenses required?

Frankly speaking, I don't know what is server farm. If running dozens of ASIC's is called 'server farm' then.. yeah! Its server farm.

I've a clue, we can categorize it as IT services. Are there specific licenses required for IT service? And I'm not sure it does payment processing.
Payment is term used for money/legal tender. Not barter! I guess, Bitcoin is barter...as of now.

NO.

And remember the Indian Licence Raj ended around 1980's.

only  IT field i know, that has licences is the ISP services besides that you dont need licences for running any IT service. (I feel this as unnecessary too)

We have to stop think that every business needs licences. It does not.

Bitcoin Miners are doing calculations, it's as simple as that.

I agree with sub, bitcoin mining in a farm is all about doing calculations and disseminating that information. This is the same task of a server farm that calculates any other algorithm and then passes that info to the client.
