Bitdeer Technologies Group, BTDR
The Nevada site will focus on assembling Bitdeer’s SEALMINER series of Bitcoin mining hardware. Full commercial manufacturing operations are slated to commence by the fourth quarter of 2026.
CEO Catherine Guo stated that Bitdeer collaborated with Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo’s office to obtain favorable tax arrangements, including exemptions on certain sales tax obligations.
The strategic expansion represents an effort to bolster domestic manufacturing capabilities and decrease dependence on external hardware vendors — a critical supply chain concern for cryptocurrency mining operators.
While Thursday’s session delivered strong gains, BTDR remains approximately 27% off its June peak. For the year, shares have appreciated 26%.
Thursday’s trading volume registered around 1.7 million shares — significantly under the 8.57 million daily average, indicating limited institutional participation in the rally.
