As part of the takeover of miner manufacturer Bee Computing, the firm closed its first share swap.

Given our leading edge in Ethereum mining, we are also invading Proof of Stake operations by providing a range of services including management, monitoring, node management and accounting systems. “Bee Computing has completed the development of next-generation high-performance machines for mining BTC, DOGE and LTC using the latest technology.”
