AKIPRESS.COM - There is no such concept as cryptocurrency miner in Kyrgyz laws, said Chief of the National Energy Holding Company of Kyrgyzstan Aitmamat Nazarov in response to MP's question if mining companies and bitcoins were legal in Kyrgyzstan.
"We don't provide electricity designated specially for cryptocurrency miner companies. It was revealed that 45 mining companies consumed 136 MW of electricity and we had to cut off power to them, because they consumed more than 3 regions of Kyrgyzstan - Issyk-Kul, Talas and Naryn - consumed together," Nazarov said.
Because electricity is cheap in Kyrgyzstan, foreign companies are coming here for mining.
Nazarov asked MPs to name mining companies working in Kyrgyzstan so that his company would cut off power to them. MPs said it's not their job, but his to know such companies.
