The owner has a heart - he bought them heating mats so that they could snooze in another room.
Underground and accessible to stray cats? Sounds super legit

And it cost the owner MILLIONS. Why? Because, you know. There were cats.
If the story is true, I'm guessing this was mistranslated & it could have cost them millions if the cats damaged the equipment. If it really cost them anything, they'd have mentioned what happened.
Probably caused the servers to overheat, or the cats stepping on the power button, and cost millions of Mongolian Tugrik in downtime...
Or it's a shit post ;)
I'm guessing that the accumulated shedding did extensive damage to the equipment AND the owner and/or journalist overstated the damage 🤷
Where else would you go mining than underground?
The streets of Paris?
Oh, you said miNing? My bad!
Well, presumably there are doors and stairwells.
Nope. Those are illegal in Mongolia. Floors too.
That's why Nightwish have never played there.

I think "inner Mongolia" is China, here
This looks AI. Inconsistent focus, scale of cats is different, lights on “rig” are inconsistent, where’s all the LAN and power cables? Who builds a bitcoin mine in a weird tunnel?
I think it's shopped and not ai - the pixel density is clearly off. espeically the light on the orange cat on the left. look at it hovering above the servers 🤣
Bottom left cat has orange legs and a black head
The cats are too consistent between the pictures for this to be ai I think.
its fake tho, classic bitcoin slop 😅
The most value for society created by Bitcoin yet.
Ah, so that’s why the GTX 1070 I got off eBay was covered in 🐈 hair.
I can sell you one if you want a card with 🐈 pee too.
The owner has a heart
Since we are talking about a cryptominer, highly unlikely.
The owner would get cancelled online by everyone, so it doesn't worth the risk.
Has one, just not his own.
No, I could believe it cat's a heartless creatures who only demand your heat, warmth and food. That sounds just up the alley for something a heartless crypto minor would find a kindred Spirit in.
Totally checks out that a crypto Miner being lonely would be a crazy cat person.
LinkedIn: fake shit and resume.
The bit cave.... Nananananana Bit man.
This doesn't look like a bitcoin mine to me. Just bunch of stuff that looks like a blu-ray disc case stacked in line. No cables, no wires, no fans. I call bullshit.
Fuck yeah, anarchy kitties 🤘
Didn't china ban bitcoin mining?
Mongolia was not on my card.
Inner Mongolia is technically part of China, not the independent nation of Mongolia.
Bitcoin is so funny to me.
SEELE cat meetup.
