Hive’s facilities are primarily in Canada, Sweden, and Iceland, and it’s continuing to expand. In 2017, Hive acquired Genesis Mining, the world’s largest cloud bitcoin mining company at the time, for $9 million. The move vastly improved Hive’s production, quality of crypto mining, and workforce—Genesis had over 700,000 employees before being acquired by Hive.
