Business Description

EZ Blockchain, founded in Chicago in 2017 by CEO Sergii Gerasymovych and President Vlad Rodinoff, is a vertically integrated Bitcoin mining infrastructure company that owns and operates more than 60 MW of data center capacity across the United States, with an additional 40 MW under development.

The company's core strategy centers on monetizing stranded and curtailed energy (natural gas flares, surplus wind, solar, and nuclear output) that would otherwise be wasted or burned. Rather than building conventional grid-connected campuses, EZ Blockchain deploys its proprietary EZ Smartbox™ mobile containerized data centers directly at remote energy sites. The EZ Smartbox is manufactured in-house in two configurations: a 20-ft and a 40-ft container unit, with the 40-ft format accommodating up to 720 ASIC miners at 2,500 kW of draw. The company asserts it operates the largest ASIC container production facility in the United States. A companion platform, EZ Smartgrid™, handles demand-response load management, and an in-house Network Operations Center provides 24/7 fleet oversight at a reported average uptime of 97%.

EZ Blockchain's facility footprint includes named sites across Georgia (Ranger I, Ranger II, Coffee I, and a West Point campus that expanded from 8 MW to 16 MW in July 2022), South Carolina (Berry I and Berry II), Kansas (Flower I), Northern Indiana, upstate New York, and oil-producing regions in Wyoming's Uinta Basin and North Dakota's Watford City. The April 2024 launch of Berry II, a 16 MW facility powered by nuclear and solar energy through a supply arrangement with New Berry Electric Corporation, advanced a stated South Carolina capacity target of 26 MW across the two Berry sites. The company reports over 65% of total power draw comes from emission-free sources, with all-in colocation hosting rates starting at $0.055 per kWh.

Service offerings span third-party ASIC colocation and proprietary self-mining, with hardware support for Bitmain, MicroBT, and Canaan equipment in both air-cooled and immersion-cooled configurations. Each site carries a minimum capacity of 8 MW, supporting up to 2,500 rigs. In 2020, EZ Blockchain spun out EZ Energy Technologies as a subsidiary to handle power-generation and flare-mitigation work. A 2021 partnership with Silver Energy, a Dallas-based oil field services provider, brought EZ Smartbox units to client wells in Alberta, Canada, converting approximately 250 MCFd of stranded natural gas into roughly 1 MW of continuous Bitcoin mining power.

Gerasymovych was named to the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe list in 2021, and the company received the Chicago Innovation Award. In June 2023, EZ Blockchain joined the Sustainable Bitcoin Protocol, gaining third-party verification for its clean-energy production and earning Sustainable Bitcoin Certificates for each bitcoin mined with verified green power, a credential increasingly used in ESG-focused mining procurement.
