During the moratorium, the state will conduct a study of the potential environmental impact of PoW mining, and existing mining companies will not be affected.(CoinDesk) 6. According to CNN, the People’s Court of Tianhe District, Guangzhou City recently heard a case of contract dispute arising from virtual currency mining. The court concluded that the contract signed between the plaintiff and the defendant was invalid because it was detrimental to the public interest and contrary to public order and morality, and that the property rights and interests arising from it should not be protected by law, and the consequences caused by the above actions should be borne by the parties themselves. 7. Canaan will offer and sell ADSs representing Class A common stock for an aggregate offering price of up to $750 million. The net proceeds from the offering are intended to be used for research and development, production expansion and other general corporate purposes.

According to the disclosed creditor filings, the top 50 creditors of FTX Group amount to approximately $3 billion in unsecured claims, with the largest creditor amounting to $226 million and 10 creditors exceeding $100 million.

The independent fund is targeting raising capital of up to $100 million from outside investors. Applied Digital does not anticipate issuing any equity to raise capital for the fund, nor does it plan on directly owning any mining hardware. 10. Listed bitcoin miner Core Scientific said its losses climbed to more than $1.7 billion in the first nine months of the year as soaring energy costs and increased competition among miners led to a sharp drop in profit margins.

The company lost $434 million in the third quarter. 11. Binance Pool has officially launched the RavenCoin (RVN) mining service, which utilizes the PPS+ settlement method.
