Hive Blockchain, a publicly listed crypto mining company, said it appointed Aydin Kilic as president and chief operations officer.
- Kilic will oversee the firm’s operations across its data centers in Canada, Sweden and Iceland, Hive announced Thursday.
- Hive said Kilic will give the company a comprehensive understanding of Canadian securities laws and exchange rules governing publicly traded crypto mining companies thanks to his role as CEO of bitcoin miner Fortress Blockchain, which he founded in 2017.
- Fortress partnered with Great American Mining earlier this year to launch an environmentally conscious venture converting stranded gas into mining power.
- Hive says it sources only green energy to mine on the cloud and that it’s the first crypto mining company with an environmental, social and governance (ESG) strategy.
