Bitdeer has announced plans to invest $36 million in a manufacturing facility in Nevada tied to its Bitcoin mining operations, marking a significant push to expand its U.S. manufacturing footprint.
The company said it will open an advanced technology manufacturing facility in Sparks, Nevada, bringing 70 high-tech jobs to the state. The facility will focus on producing hardware connected to Bitcoin mining. For related coverage, see Spot Bitcoin ETFs Post $1 Billion in Weekly Outflows: What It Means.
The project has also drawn attention from Nevada's Governor's Office of Economic Development, which published a board packet for Bitdeer Industrial Inc. outlining the company's engagement with the state. For related coverage, see Wells Fargo Raises Strategy Stake, Cuts BlackRock Bitcoin ETF.
The $36 million commitment signals that Bitdeer is moving beyond purely operating mining rigs and investing in the production side of the supply chain. Building mining-related hardware domestically could reduce the company's reliance on overseas chip fabrication and equipment suppliers.
Choosing Nevada specifically offers logistical advantages. The state has relatively low energy costs compared to coastal markets, no state corporate income tax, and proximity to major logistics corridors. For a company whose margins depend on power and hardware costs, those factors matter.
Bitdeer has been steadily expanding its capabilities beyond hosted mining. The company has previously mined and sold 198 BTC in a single week, and has been testing new mining hardware including an LTC/DOGE miner. A dedicated factory in Nevada fits the pattern of a company building out its own hardware pipeline.
The 70 jobs tied to the facility suggest a meaningful manufacturing operation, not a token presence. That scale of hiring points to actual production lines rather than a research outpost.
The investment comes at a time when Bitcoin mining companies are increasingly looking at U.S.-based infrastructure. Countries like Bhutan have accumulated significant Bitcoin reserves, but the trend among publicly traded miners has been toward securing domestic supply chains and energy access.
A $36 million factory commitment is notable because it represents capital locked into physical infrastructure, not speculative token holdings or short-term mining contracts. It is a bet on the long-term viability of Bitcoin mining as a hardware-intensive industry.
For the broader market, moves like this reflect growing institutional confidence in Bitcoin's mining economics. Spot Bitcoin ETF flows and mining infrastructure investments are two sides of the same coin: both represent longer-duration capital entering the Bitcoin ecosystem.
Bitdeer has not disclosed a specific timeline for when the Nevada facility will begin full production. The announcement remains a stated plan, and investors will be watching for construction milestones and hiring updates in the months ahead.
