African internet company launches Bitcoin mining facility

GDC said that its support of Bitcoin is a bid to help drive cryptocurrency adoption in Africa as it believes the digital currency, and its underlying distributed ledger, the blockchain, have the ability to change global finance.

The company did not provide further details on its mining facility, but claimed its farm is now producing several hundred terahashes per second of capacity to the Bitcoin blockchain.
