Mining containers, also known as bitcoin mining containers, modular data centers, look like shipping containers, the size is also similar to 20-ft and 40-ft shipping containers, the interior consists of a combination of PDUs (understandably large plug and row), switchgear (power distribution system), machine racks, heat sinks and other components, the interior is used for miners to place professional mining machines such as Bitmain, Whatsminer, Avalon or video card miners. Compared to traditional plant mining, mining containers have a short construction period and low cost, easy to transfer and transport mobile flexibility, etc. Compared to traditional mining farms, the use of mining containers mining infrastructure costs will be reduced by about 60%.

Bitcoin mining containers were first used in the mountainous regions of China, where there is abundant water resources but poor infrastructure. The construction cost of traditional mining facilities is extremely high, so mining containers were used for mining, but on a small scale.

The explosion of mining containers occurred after the Chinese government implemented a ban on Bitcoin mining. Many machines, which accounted for 45% of the global mining power, were relocated outside of China, with the United States and Canada becoming the preferred destinations for Chinese miners.

As a result, mining containers have become the optimal choice for miners relocating to the United States, Canada, and Russia for the following reasons:

1. Short construction period: Compared to building traditional facilities, constructing a 60MW mining container site can be completed in as little as 90 days, while constructing a traditional facility takes at least one year.
2. Lower cost: Even when considering transportation and taxation expenses for mining containers, the cost per capacity of 1MW is at least 30% lower than traditional facilities.
3. Convenient relocation: Commonly available 20ft and 40ft containers, as well as modular containers, can be loaded onto trucks and transported to any desired location.

In conclusion, these advantages explain why Bitcoin mining containers have become the preferred choice for mining enterprises at present.
