Zhejiang Virtual Currency Mining Policy

According to the contents of the notice, in order to rectify virtual currency mining activities, further promote energy conservation and emission reduction, and help achieve the goal of peak carbon dioxide emission and carbon neutrality as scheduled, Zhejiang Province will implement a differential electricity price for virtual currency mining, with a price increase standard of 0.50 yuan per kWh. In addition, the Zhejiang Provincial Development and Reform Commission also requires development and reform departments at all levels to strengthen the dynamic screening of virtual currency mining electricity. For the same power user, if the virtual currency mining electricity is mixed with other electricity consumption, the differential electricity price policy will be implemented for all its electricity consumption. If the policy implementation time is less than one meter reading cycle, it can be determined by multiplying the average daily electricity consumption in the corresponding meter reading cycle by the number of days when the differential electricity price policy should be implemented. The Zhejiang Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Network Information Office of the Provincial Party Committee and other departments formed a joint inspection team. By directly checking the computer room and checking along the "mining machine", they raided 36 IP addresses of 20 state-owned units in 7 regions of the province, and seriously investigated and corrected a number of illegal acts of using public resources to participate in virtual currency "mining" and trading.

Through on-the-spot verification, it is found that 14 of the 20 state-owned units actively use public resources to "mine". "Mining" personnel are mainly related network managers or technicians who are familiar with network and computer technology.

Ding Moumou, the computer room administrator of Shangyu Vocational Education Center in Shaoxing City, and He Moumou, a labor dispatcher, used office computers and bought three "mining machines" to put in the information technology building. They engaged in digging Swiss coins, totaling 1 1 1 day, with a profit of 1.5 million yuan; Yu Mou, deputy director of the Geographic Information Center of the institutions under the Natural Resources and Planning Bureau of Deqing County, Huzhou City, and Wu Moumou, a staff member, used office computers to "mine".

It is understood that in the "mining" special rectification campaign, Zhejiang seized 68 "mining machines" and more than 260 single machines, and investigated and dealt with 48 people who used public resources to actively "mine".

Legal basis: Article 29 of the Regulations on the Administration of RMB in People's Republic of China (PRC) stipulates: "No unit or individual may print or sell token tickets instead of RMB in the market."
