Sino-US trade tension! Bitmain goes to the US to expand its supply chain, which is suspected to be in line with Trump's energy policy.

Bitmain, a well-known Mining Rig manufacturer, announced on Twitter on 12/10 that it will expand its production line in the United States to strengthen supply chain efficiency. As the trade tensions between China and the United States escalate, Bitmain's move seems to be following the policy direction of the Trump administration in promoting the localization of BTC Mining.

Bitmain said the purpose of expanding the U.S. production line is to provide more efficient service to North American customers. Bitmain is one of the global leaders in BTCMining Rig manufacturing, with a market share of up to 90%. The first U.S.-built mining machines, the Antminer S21 Pro, are expected to be delivered within December.

The escalation of trade friction between China and the United States has led to delays in hardware delivery for American miners.

As the trade tensions between China and the United States escalate, including the US restricting the export of high-bandwidth memory chips to China, and China announcing the ban on the export of key minerals to the United States. At the same time, the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) delays the import of mining equipment from Bitmain, causing many US miners to wait for equipment for up to two months. In response, Bitmain recently stated that they were not involved in any "supply chain investigation," but are easing logistics delays by expanding production in the United States.

Bitmain officially stated that it has not been involved in any 'supply chain investigation'.

The Trump administration promotes the localization of BTC, and the Mining sector dominates North America.

However, the "relocation" move by Bitmain appears to be in line with Trump's energy policy. Because Trump said in June on his own social platform Truth Social that he hopes "all mined BTC comes from the United States" to promote the United States as an "energy dominant country".

Trump called for all mined BTC to be from the U.S. on his own social platform Truth Social.

According to the data from The Chain Bulletin, the United States and Canada currently account for nearly 45% of the global BTC network Computing Power, including four of the largest BTC Mining companies in terms of Market Cap, such as MARA Holdings, Core Scientific, CleanSpark, and Riot Platforms.
