Mestia City Hall: Electricity consumption has increased catastrophically in Khaishi and Chuberi - we call on the owners of miners to turn off the so-called Bitcoin Machines!

The City Hall of the Municipality of Mestia urges the residents of Chuberi and Khaishi that the owners of the miners turn off the so-called Bitcoin machines. As mentioned in the announcement, the transformer was disconnected in order to prevent the transformer from burning due to the increased load.

"In the administrative units of Khaish and Chuberi of Mestia municipality, the consumption of electricity has increased catastrophically. At this stage, the transformer is disconnected to prevent the transformer from burning out due to the critically increased load. In these communities, the alarming increase in electricity consumption is directly related to uncontrolled crypto mining.

We urge miner owners to turn off the so-called Bitcoin machines! Please understand that your personal interests are sacrificed to the welfare of the rest of the population - your neighbors, your relatives, your friends.

In case of continuation of such load, it will be impossible to supply electricity to the population", says the statement issued by the Mestia Municipality's City Hall.
