Abstract

The present invention is a modular, energy efficient structure for housing racks of computers specifically designed for mining Bitcoin assets. The fundamental principal towards an optimized mining facility design is to decrease electricity consumption as well as effective construction budget management, ensuring only appropriate business expenditures. The side benefits including improved stability of the facility computer network and electricity supply. The design concept is carried out through a cool/hot air segregation process, which results in controllable internal facilities temperatures, dust filtration and energy savings.
