Mining $BTC like a crime movie in Malaysia.
Police found 44 hidden mining rigs in a fake abandoned building — all seized, all destroyed 🔥
In Malaysia, mining $BTC sometimes looks less like tech entrepreneurship and more like a low-budget Netflix thriller. To avoid attention, miners hide their machines in totally ordinary-looking “abandoned” buildings. No signs, no lights, just silence… until the police show up.
In this specific case, local authorities uncovered 44 Bitcoin mining machines running quietly inside one of these buildings. The outcome? Full confiscation, followed by destruction. Zero mercy. Not even a second chance.
The irony hurts. While some countries compete to attract miners with cheap energy and clear rules, others treat hashing power like contraband. Electricity theft is often the official excuse, but let’s be honest — crypto still scares institutions that don’t control it.
I always find these stories fascinating. Decentralized money, global network, but very local consequences. Where you mine matters more than what you mine. Tranquille in one country, underground in another.
One thing is sure: when you hear a building humming in the middle of nowhere… it’s probably not ghosts 👻
