Impact Mining™

Hashing an abundant energy future

We believe in an abundant energy future. But there are billions of people without access to reliable and affordable energy where the path to get there is blocked or slowed.

We created Impact Mining to change that by making electricity more affordable in recently energized communities. Impact Mining works by converting donated hashrate into lower electricity prices, allowing people, hospitals, schools, and businesses to use more and do more.

Turning hashrate into healthcare, education and economic development

Impact Mining forms partnerships with non-profits and B-corps that are sustainably powering communities in emerging economies. These partners develop high impact projects where lowering electricity prices will immediately increase productive usage.

How it Works

Bitcoin miners direct hashrate to the donation pool and Bitcoin payouts occur daily to the donation node.
For each project, Synota calculates energy costs and bitcoin is instantly routed to project partners to lower electricity prices.
People, hospitals, schools and businesses pay less for electricity, usage is tracked, and impact is reported to the hashrate donors.

Why it Works

It's simple, and donating hashrate has tax advantages.
It's efficient, nearly 100% of donations go to the projects.
It's impactful, the benefits are direct, immediate, and measurable.

Goal for Impact Mining

Achieve a $30 million run rate by the next bitcoin halving – around April 2028. $30 million could lower energy costs 20% for hundreds of thousands of homes, hospitals, schools and businesses, potentially putting millions of people on an accelerated path to an abundant energy future.

Today, achieving the goal for Impact Mining requires around 0.2% of global Bitcoin hashrate. One block at a time…

Impact Mining is more than philanthropy—it’s proof of concept for the transformation of global energy finance that technology now enables. Global energy finance MUST be transformed to increase energy abundance. For example, the financial risk and friction associated with investing in emerging markets keeps billions of dollars from flowing to energy infrastructure projects. I am excited because Synota has the potential to unlock new ways of pooling capital, generating liquidity, and aligning incentives.
