  • Bitcoin mining operations have generated over 31,000 jobs across the United States through direct and indirect employment.

  • Twelve states dominate the US Bitcoin mining landscape, according to research by the Perryman Group.

The United States Bitcoin mining sector has emerged as a significant employment generator, creating over 31,000 jobs across the country through direct operations and supporting industries, according to a new study by the Perryman Group in collaboration with the Texas Blockchain Council and The Digital Chamber.

The research highlights the economic impact of cryptocurrency mining, with Texas emerging as the industry’s employment powerhouse. The state accounts for approximately 39% of all Bitcoin mining-related jobs in the studied regions, with 12,200 positions created through direct mining operations and ancillary services.

“Bitcoin mining companies serve as important employers and taxpayers in their local communities,” the report emphasizes, underlining the sector’s growing importance in regional economic development. This impact extends beyond direct employment, encompassing roles in electrical infrastructure, cooling system maintenance, and security services.

The concentration of mining activities in twelve states reflects the industry’s strategic approach to location selection, typically favoring regions with affordable electricity rates and supportive regulatory frameworks. Bitcoin mining, which involves using specialized computers to validate transactions and secure the network, requires significant energy resources and technical infrastructure.

This employment data emerges at a crucial time for the mining industry, as it approaches the upcoming Bitcoin halving event, when mining rewards will be reduced by 50%. The robust job creation numbers suggest the sector has established a sustainable presence in the American economy, despite its relatively recent emergence as a mainstream industry.
