Kosovo Turning Into A Crypto Mining Hub

Many European nations are showing a lot more interest in cryptocurrencies of late. Particularly in the Eastern European country Kosovo which is seen worsening economic problem due to 2008 financial crisis which have left the country with a worsening job shortage problem.

Kosovo is unknown in the field of finance and cryptocurrency but this might change pretty quickly soon as Kosovo is home to the 3rd cheapest energy in the whole of Europe.

Mining cryptocurrency in the country is a very appealing proposition as it cost half as much bitcoin to be able to mine 1 bitcoin in the country.

This is assuming one has the know-how to pull this off.

However, the government has no official stance on cryptocurrencies as for now and only time will tell how they will react when the new asset class becomes very popular in the country.

In fact he predicts that the market is headed for the $20 trillion mark. However he does not expect it to do it immediately.
