TechFlow news, April 25 — According to Cointelegraph, the planning commission of Vilonia, Arkansas unanimously rejected a proposal to establish a cryptocurrency mining facility. Local residents strongly opposed the project, primarily citing concerns over noise pollution, energy consumption, and environmental impact.
This is not the first time the city has rejected a cryptocurrency mining project. In 2023, Vilonia denied Vilo AR's application for a mining facility and permanently revoked its permit. That same year, residents also opposed Green Digital's proposal to build a mining facility near residential areas. In 2024, the Arkansas House passed two bills restricting cryptocurrency mining.
