Odaily Planet Daily News According to the official announcement, stablecoin issuer Tether signed a memorandum of understanding with South American agricultural energy company Adecoagro to cooperate in a renewable energy Bitcoin mining project in Brazil. Adecoagro currently operates 230 megawatts of renewable energy power generation facilities in South America. The project will explore the feasibility of using surplus electricity for Bitcoin mining.
Tether's CEO said this is an extension of the company's sustainable mining strategy, aimed at promoting the coordinated development of energy infrastructure and the digital economy. Adecoagro executives pointed out that Bitcoin could become a long-term store of value for assets similar to farmland, and the project will help the company access crypto assets in a controlled manner. The two parties will use the mine management system developed by Tether, and the relevant code will be open source within a few months.
