Immersion cooling systems for Bitcoin mining are all the rage, but do the benefits justify the costs?
Bitcoin's biggest miner, BitFury, says it is launching the world's largest two-phase immersion cooling project. As part of its new $100m data centre in the Republic of Georgia, the firm will cool more than 40MW of processing power in 3M's engineered 'Novec' fluid. Masterminded by Allied Control, the immersion cooling startup BitFury acquired in January, the project will help the miner reduce energy costs as it continues its rapid expansion. BitFury CEO Valery Vavilov said in a statement: "We've taken many steps to optimize our infrastructure for securing the blockchain and blockchain....
