Launch Date: October 15, 2025 | Location: Iowa, USA | Capacity: 5 MW
The future of institutional Bitcoin mining is being built in Iowa’s renewable energy corridor. MiningStore’s Facility 10 represents the next evolution in professional cryptocurrency mining infrastructure, combining 5 megawatts of expansion-ready capacity, access to renewable energy sources, and institutional-grade operational standards that define modern digital asset infrastructure.
Located strategically within the Southwest Power Pool (SPP) wholesale electricity market, Facility 10 delivers what institutional investors, private equity firms, and high-net-worth individuals demand: transparent Bitcoin mining operations powered by sustainable energy, engineered for long-term performance, and designed to generate uncorrelated returns across market cycles.
Iowa has emerged as one of North America’s premier locations for Bitcoin mining operations, and Facility 10’s positioning captures multiple strategic advantages that directly impact mining profitability and operational resilience.
Renewable Energy Leadership: Iowa ranks among the top states for wind energy production in the United States. This renewable-rich grid mix provides Bitcoin miners with access to low-cost, sustainable electricity, addressing both operational economics and ESG requirements that institutional investors increasingly prioritize. Facility 10 connects directly to this renewable energy infrastructure, ensuring mining operations align with environmental sustainability goals while maintaining competitive energy costs.
SPP Wholesale Market Access: The SPP operates one of the most reliable regional transmission organizations in North America, integrating wind, solar, and natural gas resources across a diverse geographical area. This market access enables MiningStore to optimize energy procurement dynamically, participate in demand-response programs, and secure competitive electricity pricing that protects investor returns during volatile energy markets.
Grid Reliability and Climate: Iowa’s electrical grid infrastructure delivers the stability that institutional Bitcoin mining operations require. Combined with a naturally cooler climate that reduces ASIC cooling costs, the state provides operational advantages that translate directly to improved mining economics and equipment longevity.
Business-Friendly Regulatory Environment: Iowa’s approach to cryptocurrency mining and data center operations creates a predictable regulatory framework that institutional capital requires for long-term investment planning.
Capacity: The facility features 5 megawatts. This modular design approach ensures that capital deployment can be deployed efficiently without requiring complete infrastructure development.
ASIC Miner Positions: With 1,500+ dedicated ASIC miner slots, Facility 10 accommodates both boutique mining operations and large-scale institutional deployments. The containerized architecture allows for flexible fleet management and rapid deployment timelines.
Air-Cooled Infrastructure Design: The facility utilizes advanced air-cooled containerized systems that optimize thermal management, reduce water consumption, and enable faster deployment compared to warehouse buildouts. This design choice prioritizes reliability, maintenance efficiency, and environmental sustainability.
Power Infrastructure: Direct connection to the SPP wholesale electricity market provides real-time energy optimization capabilities. The facility can flex power consumption dynamically, participating in grid-balancing programs that both support local energy infrastructure and generate additional revenue through demand-response incentives.
Uptime Targets: MiningStore engineers Facility 10 to achieve 99% uptime outside of voluntary grid curtailment windows. This operational reliability standard ensures predictable Bitcoin production for investors who require consistent cash flow generation.
Monitoring and Analytics: Advanced monitoring systems provide real-time visibility into fleet performance, energy consumption, thermal management, and uptime metrics. Investors receive comprehensive reporting that supports risk management, compliance requirements, and portfolio analytics.
Bitcoin mining has matured into a recognized infrastructure investment category that combines characteristics familiar to institutional allocators: tangible assets, predictable operational frameworks, and exposure to emerging digital economy growth trends.
Hard Asset Foundation with Digital Upside: Unlike purely digital cryptocurrency investments, Bitcoin mining operations involve real physical infrastructure: land, electrical transformers, ASIC hardware, modular data centers, and grid connectivity. These tangible assets provide collateral value, depreciation benefits, and asset characteristics that infrastructure investors understand from traditional sectors like renewable energy generation, telecommunications networks, and data center operations.
The operational output, Bitcoin, represents globally liquid digital value that can be held, sold, or integrated into treasury strategies. This combination of physical infrastructure investment and digital asset production creates a unique hybrid investment profile.
Uncorrelated Returns and Portfolio Diversification: Bitcoin mining returns derive from network difficulty adjustments, global hashrate competition, energy arbitrage, and Bitcoin price dynamics, factors largely uncorrelated with traditional equity markets, fixed income, or real estate cycles. For institutional portfolios seeking true diversification and inflation-resistant exposure, mining operations offer asymmetric return potential that behaves differently across various macroeconomic regimes.
During cryptocurrency bull markets, mining margins expand as Bitcoin price appreciation outpaces network difficulty increases. During bear markets, operational discipline, energy efficiency, and cost management separate high-performing operations from marginal miners, creating opportunities for well-capitalized institutional operators.
Energy Market Integration and ESG Alignment: Modern Bitcoin mining operations function as flexible energy consumers that support grid stability rather than simply drawing power. Facility 10’s integration with Iowa’s renewable-heavy electricity mix enables participation in demand-response programs, where miners receive compensation for voluntarily reducing consumption during peak demand periods.
This grid flexibility transforms Bitcoin miners into valuable infrastructure assets that help balance intermittent renewable generation, prevent energy curtailment, and improve the economic viability of wind and solar projects. As renewable energy deployment accelerates faster than baseload demand growth, Bitcoin mining provides profitable offtake mechanisms that stabilize energy markets and support the broader energy transition.
With over 10,000 Bitcoin miners deployed across seven active facilities and a proven track record of operational excellence, MiningStore has established itself as one of Iowa’s leading institutional-grade mining infrastructure operators.
Managed Mining Program (MMP): A comprehensive turnkey solution that handles ASIC procurement, facility deployment, ongoing operations management, and maintenance. Institutional investors gain Bitcoin mining exposure without building internal operational expertise or managing day-to-day facility operations.
Professional Hosting Services: Secure, energy-efficient Bitcoin miner hosting for investors who own hardware but require professional facility management. MiningStore’s hosting infrastructure provides the reliability, transparency, and reporting that is demanded.
Remote Hands and Custom Deployments: Tailored infrastructure buildouts designed for private equity firms, venture capital funds, and large-scale investors requiring dedicated facilities with customized operational parameters.
Transparent Reporting and Compliance: All MiningStore services include comprehensive monitoring, real-time analytics, and institutional-grade reporting that supports compliance requirements, risk management frameworks, and portfolio analytics.
For private equity firms seeking alternative infrastructure investments, Facility 10 offers exposure to digital asset infrastructure with familiar real-asset characteristics and transparent operational frameworks.
For venture capital funds focused on emerging technology infrastructure, Bitcoin mining represents early positioning in the convergence of energy markets, digital assets, and distributed computing infrastructure.
For high-net-worth individuals diversifying beyond traditional portfolios, professional Bitcoin mining operations provide uncorrelated, inflation-resistant yield backed by tangible infrastructure and ESG-aligned energy consumption.
Facility 10 launches October 15, 2025, representing MiningStore’s continued expansion of institutional-grade Bitcoin mining infrastructure across America’s most strategic energy markets.
