U.S. Probes China’s Bitmain Mining Rigs for National Security Reasons

 



U.S. authorities have examined whether Bitcoin-mining machines made by China-based Bitmain could be remotely manipulated for espionage or to disrupt the power grid, according to a Bloomberg report published November 21.

The report describes a months-long federal inquiry known as “Operation Red Sunset,” with investigative work led by the Department of Homeland Security and policy discussions at the National Security Council.

Scope of U.S. Federal Review

A prior federal review tied to equipment installed near a U.S. military base flagged “significant national security concerns,” and a July Senate Intelligence Committee document described “several disturbing vulnerabilities,” including potential remote control from China.

Bitmain disputed those characterizations, stating that it is “unequivocally false” that the company can operate machines remotely and asserting its compliance with U.S. law.

People familiar with the matter said that investigators stopped some shipments at U.S. ports, disassembled units, and inspected chips and firmware
