原文:Georgia targets illegal crypto mining in Mestia crackdown: Report
据报道,在官员指责矿工造成电网紧张和停电后,乔治亚州将在梅斯蒂亚安装电表,以遏制非法加密货币挖矿。
Georgia will reportedly install electricity meters across villages and settlements in Mestia as part of a crackdown on illegal crypto mining that officials say is straining the region’s power grid.
Vice Prime Minister Mamuka Mdinaradze said Monday that illegal mining had pushed Mestia’s electricity consumption to 133 million kilowatt-hours in 2025, more than 13 times the level of comparable municipalities, according to local outlet 1tv.
Large-scale illegal mining operations have led to deteriorating energy supply and grid overload, resulting in numerous outages in the region, affecting both residents and tourists, Mdinaradze reportedly said, adding that law enforcement agencies have also been tasked with identifying illegal mining operations.
Cointelegraph reached out to the Georgian government for comment on the sanctions for illegal mining activities and whether these operations are offered a licensing pathway for legitimization.

副总理表示,非法比特币开采每年给 Mestia 造成 950 万美元的损失
梅斯蒂亚市的非法比特币挖矿作业导致该地区 2025 年用电量达到 1.33 亿千瓦时,超过同类地区约 1000 万千瓦时的平均水平。
Mdinaradze 表示,额外的电力产出造成了约 20-2500 万拉里的经济损失,即每年高达 940 万美元。
他补充说,计量将在当地和每个村庄或定居点进行更大规模的实施,以帮助确定非法采矿作业的确切来源。
他补充说,斯瓦涅季将继续免费向每位消费者提供预定数量的电力,新的安排只是为了打击非法采矿活动。
