$BTC Deep Tide TechFlow reports that a Malaysian Blockchain Association report shows that the country's cryptocurrency mining market is expected to grow by 110.2% by 2025, from $2.44 billion to $5.13 billion.

However, power theft and unclear regulations hinder industry development. The Malaysian national power company lost $104.2 million from 2020 to September 2024 due to power theft, primarily from illegal Bitcoin mining.

Malaysia ranks 7th to 8th in global Bitcoin mining, contributing about 2.5% to 3% of the hash rate. Experts recommend that the government create mining licenses, introduce green tariffs, strengthen legal regulations, and develop mining models that comply with Islamic law.
