SUBANG Jaya Municipal Council (MPSJ) has finally put an end to the bitcoin mining activity conducted illegally in two residential properties in Puchong.

The activity had been going on for several months at two separate houses along Jalan Merbok 2 in Puchong Jaya, Puchong, for months before the council acted.

MPSJ councillor Frankie Yap said the premises were raided by the local council last month following complaints from neighbours who were unhappy over the outsiders frequently going in and out of those premises.

He said the presence of the strangers was causing worry and unhappiness among the neighbours.

He said affected residents complained that the visitors were dropping in at irregular hours and making a lot of noise, adversely affecting the neighbourhood serenity.

He added that another grouse was about the visitors parking indiscriminately in the area and causing obstruction.

“The residents also faced frequent power disruption because the mining activity required a lot of electricity to operate the high-powered computers used to mine bitcoins,” said Yap.

He said MPSJ issued compound notice to the tenants during the raid and ordered them to cease operations.

He said the tenants violated local council regulations by turning the houses into business premises.

“Enforcement officers found numerous computers in the houses and too many partitions made from plywood.

“There were also electrical wires running all over the houses at these premises,” he said, adding that the wooden partitions posed a fire hazard.

Yap said the issue had been raised at MPSJ’s full board meeting last month.

He said recent checks made by the local council’s enforcement team confirmed that the activity had stopped.

“The premises were empty, so the council believed the operators had moved out from the residential area,” Yap added.

Must be renting slot place to put your rig for mining la.

That's why many people in/out to check their rig.

Mining is like operating a data center. If you frequently need to go in the inspect/fix things your operation is not good.
Also... why plywood partition? Use proper rack lar...

They are leasing rigs

maybe have many people come and park car. Investor come to see the mine?

Rent a shop lot lar. Idiot.

Mining farm mistaken for papaya farm

If u ask...any shit like tis wana do..not matter wat business...do at shop lot area...not housing area...maybe at night can hear the buzzing sound..cause night time vey quiet

Are you sure it's bitcoin mining and not online gambling?

- at irregular hours
- wooden partitions
- make lots of noise

Mining is 24 hours, don't need partitions, and does not make a lot of noise. The cards will generate of lot of heat, but not noise you can hear next door.

The person who wrote the article is missing a few things, and obviously has no clue what mining is.

Neighbour butthurt people kaya mining buttcoin so make complain

How can it be illegal when there is no law about it in first place

Ant miner banyak bising yo...

seems like our ajib kor wanna get some bitcoin too, of cos not buying la, can take ask donasi from rakyat what, oh wai

not like this meh

How did it even cause a power disruption, he modified the breaker box?

Load is high they use single phase box only

If mining bitcoin so great, why not open at proper office lot?

I thought miners can earn millions!

LOL plywood partition mmg nak cari nahas

Cheaper electricity. I’m sure they don’t have the resources to open a farm at a dam and use hydro like those in China.

near to my office got one shop lot doing mining + exchange center i think. Because lots of people coming in and out of it and they usually use air compressor machine to clean their hardware. If this is the kind of operation that is running at housing area off course the neighbors get peeved

if gpu mining, it alot more quieter because GPU fans are higher quality, more silent for normal consumers
if mining with antminers, it will be noisy af

1000 wat power supply duno how many units maybe on single phase....rumah boleh bakar....u guys not scared ahhh...if ur neighbour do tis...lol

good support

If I find out neighbor do mining till cause my house to have unstable electricity for sure report & I go viral with it.

Judi haram online mistaken for mining izzit
Bitcoin mining mana noisy one...ingat betul betul korek tanah ke???

My colleague has 6 antminers in the office running. You would think an old skool siren went off when they reset simultaneously.

your boss ok with it?

noise because use dynamite to blow rock during the mining.

lot partition jut to feel the mining gua feeling.

The complaint was about the people that come n go into the house make noise. And park like their father road

walao, 6 in the office!!

if only they were antminers when i was the IT bos

why need to do that? put your own rig at your home la. adui.

Don’t want put effort but want join the ship type person lor.

Obvious non it investor.

"Mining" pussies...

Let's put it this way, electricity not boss pay also.

But the sudden full blast of the fans during resets has given us a few near heart attacks during meetings and late nights.
