Architect Partners: Bitcoin mining industry is in a consolidation phase

According to CoinDesk, investment bank Architect Partners has reported that the Bitcoin mining industry is currently in a consolidation phase, triggered by the halving event in April of this year.The report emphasizes that mining companies are seeking large, scalable data center capacity and access to low-cost electricity and capital. The Bitfarms plan to acquire Stronghold Digital Mining is a typical example of recent MA trends. The report's authors believe that hostile takeovers are not common in talent-dependent technology and financial services industries, but the Bitcoin mining industry is different, with its core assets being physical facilities, power resources, and widely available computing equipment. However, this trend towards consolidation contradicts the original intention of Bitcoin founder Satoshi Nakamoto, who hoped that anyone could participate in mining without concentration of computing power. The impact of the centralization of the mining industry is still to be observed.
