Like actual mining, bitcoin mining requires infrastructure and quite a bit of energy. So how do you do it?

This is where the new offer from the world leader in mining infrastructure, Blockstream--working with the Luxembourg marketplace Stokr--comes into play. You can now pay $90,000 per token for 48 months, with an entry threshold of $115,000 dollars for qualified investors outside the United States and $10,000 for professional investors. Each Blockstream mining note 2 (BMN2) will give the right to bitcoin produced by one petahash-per-second of computing power in Blockstream’s North American mining operations, which has earned the trust of many high-profile clients, including Fidelity and Foundry. After four years, investors will get the return on their investment and their share of bitcoin(s).

If you don’t want to wait four years, you can take advantage of the fact that the token is issued on Liquid, which allows peer-to-peer trading or trading on secondary markets. The trading volume of the first token designed in this way is estimated at €18.23m over three years. According to its promoters, BMN1 has achieved “cash-on-cash returns of up to 108% over a three-year period” and “an additional 35% gross return of 325 BTC over the equivalent amount of bitcoin invested, outperforming the purchase of bitcoin on the cash market.” BMN1 will offer a total payout of more than 1,200 BTC to investors on Liquid, a layer-2 and sidechain of Bitcoin designed for asset issuance, again according to the press release. BMN1 investors will have the option of switching from BMN1 to BMN2 and will be rewarded with a 3% bonus in additional BMN2 shares.

"We are proud to continue our partnership with Blockstream, invested in by Baillie Gifford, Reid Hoffman and Khosla Ventures, by launching BMN2,” commented Tobias Seidl, co-CEO and cofounder of Stokr. “Luxembourg once again proves to be the jurisdiction of choice for setting up cutting-edge investment structures in Europe.”
