Mined in America Act of 2026

This bill directs the Secretary of Commerce to create a voluntary "Mined in America" certification for cryptocurrency mining facilities and mining pools located in the United States or allied countries. To stay certified, operators would have to stop buying mining equipment made by companies tied to foreign adversaries starting in 2027 and phase out such equipment entirely by 2030. Certified entities could become eligible for certain Energy Department loan guarantees and grants and Agriculture Department rural energy grants and loan guarantees. The bill would exempt certified miners from tax on gains when they sell mined Bitcoin to the federal government, and would write the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and Digital Asset Stockpile into law. It also orders federal studies on mining and computing loads on the power grid and on decentralized artificial intelligence, and supports U.S. manufacturing and export of mining hardware.
