Bitcoin Mining Success Story
From 12 Machines to Owning the Mine
How One Client Scaled from Buying Machines to Full Infrastructure Ownership with MiningStore
“We didn’t know what we needed to do. We just knew we wanted in.”
That’s how our client described their mindset in early 2022. Like many who enter the Bitcoin mining space, they had a vision but needed a trusted partner to guide their journey.
Starting Small: Testing the Waters
Their journey began modestly, a test batch of just 12 machines purchased from MiningStore and hosted at a third-party facility. This cautious first step would soon evolve into something much more significant.
The Turning Point: Experience That Builds Trust
In June 2022, the client returned to MiningStore with bigger plans: a larger deployment of 58 machines, this time hosted at our MiningStore-managed facility in Iowa.
Why choose us again? Their decision came down to two critical factors:
- A seamless purchasing process that eliminated complexity
A customer success team that transformed complicated technical deployments into straightforward execution
Accelerated Growth Through Partnership
As confidence in our partnership strengthened, their investment rapidly scaled:
- July 2022: Another 110 machines added to their fleet
- August 2022: A substantial $1.9M hardware purchase of 1000+ machines, with MiningStore handling all hosting and management responsibilities
Each expansion was executed with precision, transparency, and comprehensive oversight, reinforcing the client’s confidence that they had found their ideal long-term mining partner.
The Strategic Pivot: From Client to Owner-Operator
As the partnership matured, so did our client’s vision. They recognized that long-term success in Bitcoin mining required more than just hosted capacity; it demanded full ownership of their mining infrastructure for themselves and their capital.
Their strategic objectives became clear:
- Secure low-power costs for improved margins
- Gain complete operational control
- Build infrastructure with significant room for future expansion
- Be located in an opportunity zone (a federally designated area offering major tax advantages and real estate upside) and own the land.
MiningStore was selected to lead this critical transition from a hosted client to an infrastructure owner through our ‘Build a Mine’ solution.
The Result: Custom-Built Mining Excellence
In March 2024, we delivered a complete turnkey, air-cooled mining facility designed to house 1,100 miners operating at peak efficiency.
Our comprehensive project management included:
- Strategic site selection in an optimal location
- Negotiation of favorable power procurement terms
- End-to-end engineering and equipment sourcing
- Full construction oversight and operational handoff
The facility was delivered on schedule and precisely to specifications. Today, it operates under our client’s direct management.
Perfect Timing for Industry Momentum
As of April 2025, Bitcoin mining has entered a period of strong growth. With BTC values stabilizing near $92,000, increasing global adoption, and growing institutional interest, operators with established infrastructure are uniquely positioned for success.
This client’s forward-thinking approach, moving from modest beginnings to infrastructure ownership, has perfectly positioned them to capture this market momentum.
