ASIC colocation. Your miners, our facility.
Colocation places the hardware you own into a facility built for it. We provide the power, the cooling, the network and the people on site. The machines and the pool stay yours.
Colocation is not cloud mining. The hardware is yours, and so are the rewards.
- Cloud mining
- You rent hashrate from someone else's machines
- Machine and hosting package
- You buy machines from the host as part of the deal
- Colocation
- You own the machines and place them in our facility

Your pool, changes in writing
The pool and the worker configuration stay with you. Firmware changes and over- or underclocking need written approval under the service agreement. Our team only touches a machine on your instruction or during an agreed procedure.
Pool
You choose the pool and can switch it. The rewards stay yours.
Workers
Worker names and pool configuration stay with you.
Firmware
Firmware changes need written approval under the service agreement before they are made.
Clocking
Overclocking and underclocking change a machine's draw and heat. Both need written approval.
Visits and the NOC
Access to every facility is controlled and logged, and every visit is arranged in advance.
Escorted, by arrangement
Site visits are arranged in advance with the team named in your service agreement and escorted on site.
Fenced, controlled and logged
Every facility is fenced, with access control and CCTV. Every entry is logged.
For registered customers
Registered customers reach the NOC around the clock through the contact named in their service agreement.
From the dock to hashing
Every unit is received, inspected and recorded before it is installed. The intake record follows the machine until it leaves.
Receiving
Ship to the receiving address named in the service order. Pallets are counted, serial numbers recorded and damage noted on arrival.
Inspection
Pre-deployment inspection of every unit: boards, fans, power supplies and firmware state.
Installation
Racking, structured cabling and network configuration to the plan agreed in the service order.
Power on
Commissioning and handover. Monitoring and the customer dashboard are live from the first hash.
Operations to one written standard
Coverage, monitoring, reporting, change management and decommissioning follow the same written standard at every facility.

Structured decommissioning: secure data handling, removal and return shipment to the address you name, recorded unit by unit.
We start at 250 kW. Below that the deployment rarely justifies the setup on either side.
