Key Highlights
BitVentures Limited has officially launched its Digital Assets segment after acquiring high-efficiency Bitmain mining fleets with 0.5 MW of power capacity.
The new operations will use Antminer S21 XP and L9 models to mine Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Dogecoin across US-based data centers.
This initial deployment is positioned as a proof-of-concept ahead of potential expansion into staking and node operations.
On Friday, Hong Kong-based BitVentures Limited officially launched its Digital Assets business segment after signing purchase and hosting agreements for cryptocurrency mining fleets. The company’s board approved the move to establish a direct presence in the blockchain infrastructure space.
According to the official release, BitVentures will acquire around 0.5 MW of power capacity, targeting a Bitcoin hashrate of 30 PH/s and a combined Litecoin and Dogecoin hashrate of 0.5 TH/s. The entry aims to lay the groundwork for broader digital asset services through a varied mining approach.
Acquisition of high-efficiency hardware
The acquisition includes mining hardware from Bitmain, including Antminer S21 XP Hydro models, S21 XP air-cooled units, and L9 miners. These machines are set to be deployed in several secure, high-uptime data centers across the United States.
The company plans to roll out the equipment in stages starting this month to achieve full operational capacity by the end of the first quarter of 2026. By using current-generation ASICs, BitVentures focuses on energy efficiency to keep margins stable, even during market fluctuations.
Historical pivot and standards
BitVentures has historically operated outside core digital asset mining, making this a notable strategic shift. The technical specifications of the new fleet play an important role in this transition.
The Bitcoin miners operate at 12–13.5 J/TH, while the Litecoin and Dogecoin hardware runs at 0.21 J/MH. These figures point to a focus on low-cost production, which has become essential for institutional mining operations following recent network halving events and the rising global hash rates.
Future roadmap and ecosystem expansion
The company said BitVentures plans to be more than just a mining operator. The company has noted that this initial 0.5 MW deployment serves as a proof-of-concept for a broader roadmap.
Future phases may involve staking services, running blockchain nodes, and forming various ecosystem partnerships. Management believes scaling these operations will happen gradually in phases, depending on market conditions and the profitability of the initial fleet.
Lawrence Wai Lok, CEO of BitVentures Limited, said, “This transaction is a proof-of-concept deployment that marks the formal launch of the Company’s Digital Assets segment. Subject to ongoing market conditions, the company intends to continue to invest in digital assets, and methodically scale its operations in tranches, creating a foundation for future expansion into broader digital asset services, including potential staking, node operations, and ecosystem partnerships.”
He added, “We believe that establishing an efficient mining footprint may position the Company favorably to pursue broader opportunities within the digital asset ecosystem.”
BitVentures’ entry into the mining sector through U.S.-based data centers aligns with a growing trend of international firms looking for diverse revenue streams through blockchain infrastructure.
