    4. The Kingdom of Bhutan is showcasing a powerful example of how developing nations can leverage Bitcoin mining to improve their economies and achieve economic growth. Onchain analytics platform Arkham Intelligence has detected the first Bitcoin address of Bhutan’s investment arm, Druk Holding and Investments (DHI).

    The Example of Bhutan

    According to Arkham, DHI holds 13,029 BTC, 656 Ether (ETH), and some BNB and Polygon, amounting to approximately $780 million in total crypto holdings. Bhutan's crypto reserves account for over 26.9% of its 2023 national gross domestic product (GDP).

    Paraguay and Its Energy Potential

    Paraguay is taking steps toward regulating Bitcoin mining in 2024 due to its abundant hydroelectric resources. However, political and regulatory issues have prevented the country from fully utilizing its energy potential for cryptocurrency mining.

    Venezuela: Opportunities and Challenges

    Venezuela, rich in oil and natural gas, faces challenges such as inadequate infrastructure and political instability, making it difficult to develop its cryptocurrency mining sector.

    The Kingdom of Bhutan provides a compelling example of how developing nations can utilize Bitcoin mining for economic growth. Other countries may follow its lead despite various hurdles and challenges.
