Discussions about the United States potentially purchasing Greenland have resurfaced, prompting interest from Bitcoin miners. The focus is on Greenland's industrial power planning, particularly its hydropower capacity. The government plans a public tender in 2026 for two major hydropower sites, Tasersiaq and Tarsartuup Tasersua, which could produce over 9,500 gigawatt-hours annually. Existing hydropower capacity is around 91.3 megawatts, with electricity prices at DKK 1.81 per kilowatt-hour. Expansion plans, such as the Buksefjord project, aim to increase capacity from 45 megawatts to 121 megawatts by 2032. The potential of the two-site tender could lead to a hashrate ceiling of 44.8–65.7 EH/s, positioning Greenland as a significant player in Bitcoin mining.
