Odaily Planet Daily News Venezuela's National Ministry of Electricity has disclosed an action to monitor the activities of high-power customers (including Bitcoin miners) connected to the national grid. The ministry said on social media that the plan aims to "disconnect the power system of all cryptocurrency mines in the country to avoid serious impacts on demand from these activities." Rafael Lacava, governor of Carabobo State, led a series of actions that ultimately seized more than 11,000 ASIC miners and cut off power connections to an unknown number of cryptocurrency mines. Carabobo State is home to most of the country's industrial parks. The actions focus on reducing the energy used for these activities. Due to some challenges related to climate and sanctions, the country faces continuous power outages due to insufficient power generation. Lacava said that miners cannot continue to operate when ordinary people face continuous energy outages. However, the authorities did not clarify whether these actions are clear or whether they will be implemented when the national power system is adjusted to produce more energy. Governor Lacava announced that more Bitcoin mines will be closed and other measures will be announced in the coming days, including a national executive order to reduce energy consumption by state institutions. (Bitcoin.com) Yesterday, the Venezuelan government claimed that they plan to cut off the connection of all Bitcoin mines to the National Electricity System (SEN) because these mines have high electricity consumption, causing frequent power outages in surrounding areas. The Ministry of Electricity and Energy said that this action will prevent power supply interruptions and ensure reliable service for all Venezuelans.
