🇧🇹 Bhutan, one of the world’s most closed-off countries, is slowly opening up and turning to digital technology. Under the leadership of King Jigme Wangchuck, the country launched the “Digital Bhutan” program to improve infrastructure, digital literacy, and grow its IT sector.
In 2023, it was revealed that Bhutan’s state investment fund had secretly been mining Bitcoin using cheap hydropower — a clean energy source the country produces in abundance and exports to India. As a result, Bhutan accumulated 11 879 BTC, placing it among the top countries in the world by Bitcoin reserves.
In 2023–2024, Bhutan expanded its crypto efforts, partnering with international mining companies to build new data centers powered entirely by hydropower.
At the same time, Bhutan is cautiously exploring other blockchain uses: the central bank is testing a digital version of its national currency (CBDC) with Ripple, and blockchain applications are being studied for land registry and agriculture.
Bhutan is one of the first countries to focus on “green” mining and sees crypto as a tool for sustainable development — while staying true to its cultural identity.
