BlackRock Lends Money to Bankrupt Bitcoin Miner Core Scientific
The firm committed $17 million in loan to keep miner running
It is also a creditor that holds Core’s convertible notes
Core Scientific is one of the largest Bitcoin miners, contributing nearly 10% of the computing power to secure the entire Bitcoin network. It is among a handful of public miners that raised millions from debt financing during the last bull run but struggled to stay afloat as the crypto market crashed and electricity costs skyrocketed.
2022 PAVED THE WAY FOR NATIONAL BITCOIN ADOPTION, AND 2023 WILL BE EVEN BIGGER
For the Bitcoin network to become more robust, it is essential for more countries to adopt a Bitcoin standard. Although Bitcoin does not need anyone's help, it can be accelerated and supported by having more countries, territories and cities adopt it. For example, if a country is mining Bitcoin, it is not attacking the network. If a country has made bitcoin legal tender, it is not likely going to attempt a ban on “unhosted wallets.” Overall, having more countries adopt a Bitcoin standard is positive for the network.
