NIP Group has launched a new division dedicated to crypto mining operations, aiming to produce 60 BTC per month\u2014roughly $6.5 million in gross revenue at current market prices. This is backed by a substantial investment in mining hardware with 3.11 exahash per second (EH\/s) of computational power. Net profits will depend on operational expenses, including electricity and maintenance.<\/p>\n

The initiative is being overseen by the newly formed Digital Computing Division, which will also be responsible for long-term strategy and future mining investments. Although the company has not yet revealed whether it plans to hold or liquidate its mined Bitcoin, the move suggests a growing interest in blockchain-based value generation beyond traditional esports.<\/p>\n

From Gaming to Infrastructure<\/h2>\n

NIP Group\u2019s co-founder and co-CEO Hicham Chahine described the pivot as a deliberate step toward diversification following the company\u2019s public listing in 2024. According to Chahine, Bitcoin mining offers a \u201crelated and innovative\u201d opportunity that complements the company\u2019s digital-first identity.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re building operational muscle and investing in raw computing power,\u201d Chahine said in a post, stressing that NIP is \u201cno longer just a gaming company.\u201d Instead, the firm now sees itself as a hybrid between entertainment and digital infrastructure.<\/p>\n
