The new facility will serve as an assembly center for Bitdeer’s SEALMINER series of Bitcoin mining equipment. The company anticipates commencing full commercial operations by the fourth quarter of 2026.

CEO Catherine Guo disclosed that the company collaborated with Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo’s office to obtain favorable tax incentives, which include reduced sales tax obligations on eligible purchases.

This strategic expansion represents Bitdeer’s effort to bolster domestic manufacturing capabilities while decreasing dependence on external hardware manufacturers — a critical weak point for cryptocurrency mining operations.

Although Thursday brought strong gains, BTDR remains approximately 27% off its June peak. The stock has posted a 26% gain for the year.

Thursday’s trading volume registered around 1.7 million shares — significantly lower than the 8.57 million daily average, indicating limited institutional participation in the rally.
