#MineriaBitcoin U.S. authorities gradually release Bitmain miners

For several months, U.S. authorities have kept Bitmain's Bitcoin mining equipment under review at their ports. The reason behind this measure was the suspicion that the company's management was involved in the smuggling of semiconductors to China.

However, the case does not seem to have escalated, according to recent reports. These indicate that authorities have begun to release some of the detained equipment. Some experts told Reuters that port officials delayed the release of the ASICs longer than necessary.

In any case, everything points to the situation being resolved. If confirmed, this would represent a considerable relief for the sector, given that Bitmain plays a key role in the U.S. mining industry.
