Irene faces a similar dispute of $ 100 million
Cleanspark is not alone in dealing with the risks of customs tariffs. The publicly listed miners also face a conflict over the CBP tariff, as the agency claimed that the imported excavations between April 2024 and February 2025 were of Chinese origin. Iren revealed a possible commitment of $ 100 million, such as Cleanspark, opposing the claim, pointing to the documents of suppliers and expressing the intention of challenging the agency’s notification.
These cases highlight the increase in the audit of American customs on supply chains of cryptocurrency mining companies and indicate that other miners may face similar organizational challenges. Bitmain, the largest bitcoin worker manufacturing company, pushed to start planning to install a factory in the United States to avoid this customs tariff.
The result of these conflicts can be determined as precedents of how the industry management is transparent purchases and the supply chain in a time of commercial tensions of the United States of China. If CBP prevails, the economic consequences can reshape import strategies for the entire sector, and can serve as great success for bitcoin mining companies.
