Kuwait Bans Cryptocurrency Mining Over Power Concerns

Kuwait’s Ministry of Interior announced a ban on cryptocurrency mining on April 22-23, 2025, citing concerns over power grid strain and public safety risks in the nation.

The ban aims to address unlicensed crypto mining which stresses Kuwait’s power infrastructure, causing potential outages and safety issues. Market reactions remain muted due to the country’s minor role in global mining.

Kuwait’s Ministry of Interior (MoI) has issued an official ban on cryptocurrency mining. The order, announced on April 22-23, 2025, is primarily motivated by concerns over increased electrical load and public safety. MoI, along with bodies like CITRA and others, intends to enforce the ban effectively. The decision targets mining operations rather than trading, aiming to maintain power grid stability.

The ban is expected to have minimal effects on global markets. Kuwait’s mining activities form a minor part of the global hash rate. The global prices for BTC and ETH showed negligible changes under 1% following the announcement. Economic implications for Kuwait are mitigated by its limited involvement in major crypto mining.

Historically, similar bans, such as China’s in 2021, disrupted markets temporarily. However, Kuwait’s impact is less significant. The financial outcomes remain stable, with ongoing enforcement of unauthorized practices targeting power stability rather than the crypto markets themselves. The situation underscores existing laws, aligning with initiatives from other nations with significant mining activities.

Market trends continue to observe regulatory shifts as governments balance innovation with infrastructure impacts. Existing policies and past instances such as Iran and Kazakhstan reveal potential adaptation routes for miners. The global community remains attentive, monitoring further updates on the regulatory landscape from Kuwait’s example.

Cryptocurrency mining leads to significant depletion of electrical energy, increasing the load on the public power network. This can result in power outages, affecting residential, commercial, and service areas, which poses a threat to public safety and disrupts the regular delivery of essential services. — Kuwait MoI General Department of Security Relations and Media, Ministry of Interior, Kuwait
