Tether因与乌拉圭UTE电力公司合同纠纷，停止价值1.2亿美元的比特币挖矿项目
PANews 8月24日消息，据路透社报道，由于 Tether 与乌拉圭国有电力公司 UTE 之间发生合同纠纷，Tether 放弃了在乌拉圭价值约 1.2 亿美元的比特币挖矿项目。Tether 和 UTE 在两个矿场的电力供应量上存在分歧：Tether 认为约定的电力供应量是最低限度，未来可以增加；而 UTE 则认为该数值是上限。 尽管双方试图通过签署一份修订后的合同来解决纠纷，但 Tether 的代表并未出席签约仪式。此外，Tether 在乌拉圭的法律实体 Microfin 在政府更迭两个月后停止支付电费。
Tether halts $120M Bitcoin mining project in Uruguay over power contract dispute with UTE
Tether abandoned its roughly $120M Bitcoin mining project in Uruguay due to a contract dispute with state utility UTE, per Reuters. The two sides disagree on power volumes at two mining sites: Tether sees the contracted amount as a minimum that can grow, while UTE treats it as a cap. A revised contract signing failed after Tether's representatives didn't show, and Tether's local entity Microfin stopped paying electricity bills two months after the government changed.
