Senators Cassidy and Lummis propose ‘Mined in America Act’ for BTC mining gear and reserve
US Senators Bill Cassidy and Cynthia Lummis introduced the "Mined in America Act" on Monday to encourage domestic Bitcoin mining hardware manufacturing and formalize President Donald Trump's Strategic Bitcoin Reserve order. The proposal would create an optional certification for mining facilities and pools, requiring certified participants to phase out equipment made by firms linked to "foreign adversaries." The US hosts about 38% of the Bitcoin network hashrate, while 97% of mining hardware is produced by Bitmain and MicroBT.
