Malaysian Authorities Seize 30 Bitcoin Mining Rigs Over Power Theft
Police in Perak arrested two men and confiscated crypto mining hardware following an investigation into unauthorized electrical connections.
Police in Malaysia's Perak Tengah district arrested two men and seized 30 Bitcoin mining rigs during a raid on an unauthorized mining facility in Seri Iskandar. The operation was carried out alongside technical teams from national utility provider Tenaga Nasional Berhad after inspectors uncovered direct wiring designed to bypass electricity meters. Officers also confiscated a network switch, an internet router, and a spool of electrical cable.
The two detainees are being held while authorities investigate their connection to the operation. The case is being handled under Section 427 of the Malaysian Penal Code for property damage and Section 37(1) of the Electricity Supply Act 1990, which allows the utility to seek restitution for unbilled power and related expenses. While Bitcoin mining is legal in Malaysia, bypassing meters to avoid utility bills constitutes a criminal offense. The operation follows a similar raid in Perak on August 31, during which police recovered 168 mining units.
These two are not the same thing, and one does not produce the other. The left is how this single article reads, from its tone alone. The right is the site’s own call on the asset, from indicators and analysis. Press tone feeds no score and no signal: on the only corpus this site has measured, daily tone tracked the move that had already happened and showed no measurable link with what followed.
