On Monday, the company announced that it had signed five legally binding Memorandum of Understanding (MOUs) with Bitcoin mining machine owners to purchase BTC mining machines.
To acquire 26,007 Bitcoin mining machines, the company will accomplish a hash rate of 549PH/S, accounting for about 0.36% of the global hash rate of Bitcoin.

The9 Limited has already deployed the majority of these Bitcoin mining machines in Xinjiang, Sichuan, and Gansu in China.

Its wholly-owned subsidiary NBTC Limited has started purchasing Bitcoin mining machines, “with the plan to establish cryptocurrencies mining machine facilities worldwide.”
