The U.S. and China have reached a new agreement that temporarily reduces tariffs, slashing U.S. duties on Chinese goods from 145% to 30%, and lowering China’s tariffs on American imports from 125% to 10%.

This is a significant development for the Bitcoin mining industry, where global supply chains are deeply intertwined with Asia. At Compass Mining, we’ve spent the past year navigating the sharp edge of these tariff hikes by stockpiling inventory, diversifying sourcing, and overhauling our logistics strategy. All of this was done in close partnership with our exclusive logistics and procurement partner, CM Global Services.

While this may offer short-term relief to infrastructure builders and hardware distributors, the long-term picture remains uncertain.

We’re staying proactive and ready to adapt.
