Arkansas Seeks to Ban Bitcoin Mining Near Military Bases
According to Newsbit, lawmakers in the U.S. state of Arkansas are proposing a ban on Bitcoin mining within a 30-mile radius of military bases, camps, hospitals, clinics, or weapons arsenals. This legislative move is driven by concerns over the significant computational power that could potentially be located near such sensitive sites. The bill mirrors an executive order from President Joe Biden issued in May, which prevented a China-linked mining company from establishing operations near a military base in Wyoming.
If passed, this legislation would notably impact the mining facility situated in Lonoke County close to Little Rock Air Force Base in Cabot, Arkansas. Owned by Florida-based real estate firm Interstate Holdings, this site has raised noise pollution concerns among local officials and national security worries among senators. Senator Hill questioned why such facilities were built less than five miles from an air force base—a decision he views as posing risks to national security during times when cybersecurity is increasingly critical.
