Architecture For Cryptocurrency Mining Operation
The present invention is a modular, energy efficient structure for housing racks of computers specifically designed for mining Bitcoin assets. The fundamental principal towards an optimized mining facility design is to decrease electricity consumption as well as effective construction budget management, ensuring only appropriate business expenditures. The side benefits including improved stability of the facility computer network and electricity supply. The design concept is carried out through a cool/hot air segregation process, which results in controllable internal facilities temperatures, dust filtration and energy savings.

- 1. An architecture for cryptocurrency mining, comprising:
a plurality of modules separated into a warm section and a cool section, each module including an intake shutter, a macroparticle filtration system, an air temperature altering filtration system, and a microparticle filtration system in the cool section; a panel separating the warm section and the cool section, the panel having apertures; a plurality of computers within the modules adapted to perform calculations for mining cryptocurrencies, the plurality of computers arranged to be positioned in the cool section and eject heat directly to the warm section through the apertures; exhaust fans positioned in the warm section for moving warm air out of the modules; whereby modules are arranged so that the moving warm air from adjacent modules enter a common current of upwardly moving air outside of the modules.
