EU carbon taxes push bitcoin mining operations to shift to Russia for cost savings.

A study by Vietnamese researchers found that strict carbon pricing in the EU is causing bitcoin mining operations to shift to Russia, where there are no carbon taxes. This shift is operational rather than physical, with companies turning off mining rigs in the EU and activating them in Russia to maximize profits during high carbon price periods. However, new Russian crypto mining bans starting in 2025 may limit this trend. The study highlights the impact of carbon regulations on the geographic distribution of bitcoin mining activities.
