Bitcoin mining giant Riot Platforms faces boycott in Texas
Riot Platforms, a Bitcoin mining giant listed on Nasdaq, has been opposed by local grassroots organization "Texas Coalition Against Blockchain Mining" and non-profit organization Greenpeace in Texas. Riot Platforms had originally planned to establish a large-scale mining facility in the area, which is said to cover 265 acres and go live in the fourth quarter of this year. It is currently unclear whether this opposition will affect Riot Platforms' scheduled launch.
