泰国的任务是解决导致首都曼谷和邻近地区大规模电力中断的非法采矿作业问题。

Thailand is continuing its efforts to crack down on illegal Bitcoin mining operations that are causing massive power disruptions in the capital city of Bangkok and neighboring areas.

泰国正在继续努力打击非法比特币挖矿活动，这些活动导致首都曼谷和周边地区出现大规模电力中断。

In its latest drive against these unregistered operations, the kingdom’s Provincial Electricity Authority (PEA) announced that it has shut down an illegal Bitcoin mining farm in the Phanat Nikhom District of Chonburi.

在针对这些未注册业务的最新行动中，该国省电力局（PEA）宣布关闭春武里府 Phanat Nikhom 区的一个非法比特币矿场。

This time, the energy company worked with the Crime Suppression Division (CSD) to raid the mining facility, which was suspected of tampering with the electricity meter for crypto-mining purposes.

此次，该能源公司与打击犯罪部门（CSD）合作突袭了该采矿设施，该设施涉嫌篡改电表进行加密货币采矿。

According to local reports, the PEA and CSD officers confiscated 996 Bitcoin mining machines and similar equipment. A representative of the raiding team said that crypto mining operations work with stolen power worth hundreds of millions of baht.

据当地报道，PEA 和 CSD 官员没收了 996 台比特币矿机和类似设备。突袭小组的一名代表表示，加密货币挖矿业务使用了价值数亿泰铢的被盗电力。

负责可疑加密货币挖矿业务的人员尚不清楚，但 CSD 正在准备向当地法院发出必要的逮捕令。

Illegal Crypto Mining Remains A Problem For Thai Authorities

非法加密货币挖矿仍然是泰国当局面临的一个问题

Crypto mining is a complex technical process that requires high-end computers and related equipment. Since it requires massive power and investment in advanced equipment, it isn’t surprising that many groups run illegal crypto-mining operations.

加密货币挖矿是一个复杂的技术过程，需要高端计算机和相关设备。由于它需要大量电力和先进设备的投资，因此许多团体进行非法加密货币挖矿业务也就不足为奇了。

In Thailand, several crypto-mining operations have been set up, and many of these have been illegally tampering with the country’s electrical supply.

在泰国，已经建立了多个加密货币挖矿业务，其中许多业务非法篡改了该国的电力供应。

Last November 2024, Thai authorities raided and closed at least nine illegal crypto-mining operations and charged two persons with stealing over $280k in electricity.

去年 2024 年 11 月，泰国当局突袭并关闭了至少 9 个非法加密货币挖矿作业，并指控两人窃取超过 28 万美元的电力。

In 2022, Bangkok’s Department of Special Investigation also carried out raids targeting over 50 illegal crypto-mining operations.

2022 年，曼谷特别调查部还针对 50 多个非法加密货币挖矿活动进行了突击搜查。

Chonburi Mining Operator Illegally Tapped Into Local Electricity Supply

春武里府采矿经营者非法利用当地电力供应

According to local reports, an unidentified employee of the mining firm tipped the authorities about the possible electricity theft in the facility. Authorities said the facility used the electricity meter correctly during the day to avoid suspicions and switched to illegal tapping by night.

据当地报道，该矿业公司的一名身份不明的员工向当局举报该设施可能发生窃电事件。当局表示，该设施白天正确使用电表以避免怀疑，并在夜间转为非法窃电。

Police Maj. Gen. Montree Theskhan of the Crime Suppression Division said the company was registered for digital asset trading. However, it also operated crypto mining rigs that illegally used the state’s power supply at night.

警方打击犯罪部门的 Montree Theskhan 少将表示，该公司已注册进行数字资产交易。然而，它还运营着在夜间非法使用国家电力供应的加密采矿设备。

The investigations also revealed that solar panels were added to the compound but were not used to power the mining rigs.

调查还显示，该院落中添加了太阳能电池板，但并未用于为采矿设备供电。

Illegal Crypto Mining Operations Also Reported In Other Countries

其他国家也有非法加密货币挖矿活动的报道

Unregistered Bitcoin mining facilities are also operating in various parts of the world. For example, in its October 2024 report, the Malaysian primary power provider reported over $100 million in losses due to theft.

未注册的比特币挖矿设施也在世界各地运营。例如，马来西亚主要电力供应商在 2024 年 10 月的报告中报告称，由于盗窃造成了超过 1 亿美元的损失。

These illegal crypto-mining activities have pushed national governments to tighten regulations and launch campaigns against violators. Some governments have banned mining and technology outright to control its negative effects.

这些非法的加密货币挖矿活动促使各国政府加强监管，并对违法者发起打击行动。一些政府已经彻底禁止采矿和技术以控制其负面影响。
