Russian Creates Network of Nine Secret Crypto Farms

Russian authorities discovered a network of nine secret cryptocurrency mining farms in Nizhny Novgorod. One farm was found in a garage near the railway station "Pochinki," operating without a contract with the power supply company and with tampered meters to artificially reduce electricity consumption. Similar illegal setups were found at eight other locations, including a car wash, residential building basements, and a buried container on private land. All were connected to the grid illegally with meter interference. Police seized 120 mining devices, four mobile phones, a laptop, and bank cards during a search. The suspect faces criminal charges for property damage through deception and is under a travel restriction. While mining is not banned in the Nizhny Novgorod region, this case involved electricity theft. Previously, in Irkutsk Oblast, police found an illegal crypto farm in a forest belt near a village after a tip from the energy company.

In Buryatia, a 'Mining Truck' Stole Electricity Worth 3 Million Rubles

In Russia's Republic of Buryatia, a group of individuals organized an illegal mobile cryptocurrency mining operation using a modified truck, stealing electricity worth 3 million rubles. Three local residents equipped the truck with around 100 mining devices and drove along power lines, illegally connecting to the electrical grids. Two additional accomplices were involved in the operation. Law enforcement, supported by the Russian National Guard, detained all five suspects. A criminal case has been initiated under the article on causing property damage through fraud or abuse of trust. During raids at the suspects' residences, authorities seized mining equipment valued at 6.5 million rubles, along with records and other evidence. The organizers have been subjected to a restraining order prohibiting certain activities, while other participants signed pledges not to leave the area and to exhibit good behavior. This case follows other recent discoveries of illegal mining farms in Russia, including a three-month search for one in Dagestan that was eventually located using a drone with a thermal imager.

Over 100 Illegal Mining Farms Found in the North Caucasus Since the Beginning of the Year

Since the beginning of 2025, over 100 illegal cryptocurrency mining farms have been discovered in Russia's North Caucasus Federal District, according to "Rosseti Severny Kavkaz." The total financial damage from their operations is estimated at over 656 million rubles. Although cryptocurrency mining is officially banned in the region until Spring 2031, many illegal miners continue to operate by stealing electricity, either bypassing meters or connecting directly to the grid without contracts. The breakdown of discovered farms by region is as follows: 79 in Dagestan (causing 89.5 million rubles in damage), 14 in Ingushetia (455.5 million rubles), 5 in Karachay-Cherkessia (104.1 million rubles), 2 in Stavropol Krai (1 million rubles), 2 in North Ossetia (390,000 rubles), and 1 in Kabardino-Balkaria (5.8 million rubles). Dagestan leads in the number of cases, which the energy company attributes to individuals attempting to generate profit without using their own funds for electricity. In response to the widespread issue, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak announced on December 8th that the government plans to establish both administrative and criminal liability for violations related to cryptocurrency mining.
