Service Demands of Cryptocurrency Mining

With the astounding rise of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, utilities need to prepare for how this development impacts their services.

In this webinar, we dive deep into a real-world case of a county dealing with an extreme amount of service requests for gaming servers to mine cryptocurrencies — Chelan County.

Join leaders from the Chelan County PUD for a lively discussion about:

• How they plan to deal with the pile of service requests from Bitcoin miners that equal to their peak load
• Why the Central Washington area became a hotspot for mining
• How to balance both customer service and the technical challenges of these requests
• How policies around the issue may evolve
