The company not only focuses on hardware production, where it stands out with the large amount of mining equipment put on the market, but also on support services and business solutions.
In fact, it is estimated that this company is the owner of several Bitcoin mining pools simultaneously. This, added to its role as the main producer of ASIC, entails a certain risk of centralization of mining activity, which has been alerted and started to fight from other companies, such as Block, owned by bitcoiner Jack Dorsey.
The announcement of the Bitmain production line occurs in a context in which that company is under suspicion. Last November it was reported in CriptoNoticias that US customs is holding detainees several miners from this companysupposedly, because they are built with chips from Sophgo, a company that has been under scrutiny for apparently violating US sanctions.
