Compass Mining Energizes 10 MW Bitcoin Mine in Texas with Onmine Partnership
Compass Mining has energized a 10-megawatt bitcoin mine in Texas through a partnership with Onmine, marking the latest step in its shift from a hosting marketplace to a vertically integrated operator.
Compass noted in an announcement on Tuesday that the site has come online in stages and reached full capacity by the end of July. It is the first time Compass has taken on day-to-day operations, revenue sharing, and power-pricing risk.
The company said it initially deployed its own miners to validate performance before customer onboarding, with plans to dedicate the entire 10 MW to enterprise hosting by October.
Onmine, which secured the site and its interconnection to ERCOT, said the project was accelerated with the integration of Giga Energy’s modular air-cooled container systems.
The arrangement allows Compass Mining to offer institutional clients a turnkey solution, including power contract management, advanced monitoring, and uptime service guarantees. Giga Energy, which supplied the modular data center units, is providing infrastructure designed to shorten deployment timelines and expand capacity.
The Texas launch adds to Compass Mining’s recent expansions in Iowa and West Texas, as the company builds a nationwide network of facilities aimed at serving individual and institutional clients.
