Illegal Bitcoin mining is rampant in Central Asia, with two countries losing millions of dollars.

According to reports, illegal Bitcoin mining activities in Tajikistan and Kazakhstan are on the rise. The Attorney General of Tajikistan stated that in the first half of 2025, the losses caused by illegal crypto assets miners in the country reached $3.52 million. Recently, the authorities in Kazakhstan have cracked down on crypto assets miners using illegal energy, indicating that this issue in the Central Asian region is becoming increasingly serious.
