Mining in New York
Meanwhile, New York State Legislator Anna Kellis said the two-year ban on certain types of new cryptocurrency mines in the state is not a general ban on the sector, but rather aims to reduce the country’s carbon footprint by suppressing the mines. Mine. It did not meet the required standards.

It does not affect the ability of small miners with a few computers to buy, use, sell or invest in any cryptocurrency, including Bitcoin.
