About Bitdeer
Bitdeer Technologies Group is a NASDAQ-listed (ticker: BTDR) technology company headquartered in Singapore that describes itself as a "world-leading" high-performance computing platform and Bitcoin mining services provider. The company is vertically integrated across the value chain, spanning IC design and hardware manufacturing (its own SEALMINER ASIC miners and Minerbase mobile cooling containers), infrastructure construction and cloud mining, and artificial intelligence/high-performance computing. Bitdeer handles the full range of mining-related processes for its customers, including equipment procurement, transport logistics, datacenter design and construction, equipment management, and daily operations, and offers institutional services, a hash rate market, and a miner rights trading marketplace via its mobile apps (Bitdeer App and Minerplus App). Since 2013 Bitdeer has built more than 30 data centers globally and currently operates 9 large-scale data centers (including one of North America's largest) with roughly 3GW of diversified energy capacity and tens of exahashes of managed hash rate, with major operations in the United States, Bhutan, Norway, Canada, Malaysia, and Ethiopia. Since 2023 it has also been expanding a global AI infrastructure business (Bitdeer AI Cloud), powered by thousands of NVIDIA GPUs (including GB200 NVL72 and B200, with GB300 NVL72 and B300 planned), offering turnkey AI datacenter solutions and GPU cloud compute for AI training and deployment starting at around $2/hour. Bitdeer serves both individual/retail Bitcoin miners and institutional clients, as well as AI developers and enterprises seeking scalable, energy-efficient compute.
