Business Description
Sibmain, headquartered in Moscow with colocation infrastructure spread across Russia, is a cryptocurrency mining equipment distributor and data center operator that has offered ASIC hardware sales, hosted colocation, and equipment leasing since 2017, with facilities concentrated across four Siberian and western-Russian power-surplus regions.
The company's hardware division covers a broad ASIC catalog from seven manufacturers: Bitmain (Antminer series), Canaan (Avalon series), MicroBT (Whatsminer), Goldshell, Innosilicon, iPollo, and JASMINER. Hardware is procured through direct factory contracts, bypassing third-party intermediaries, and each unit undergoes pre-sale quality testing with optional video verification available to buyers. Sibmain handles official Russian customs clearance and provides complete import documentation with every shipment. For clients preferring staged capital deployment, equipment leasing is available with contract terms from 12 to 60 months.
On the colocation side, Sibmain operates data centers across Krasnoyarsk Krai, Ust-Ilimsk (Irkutsk Oblast), Karelia (Nadvoitsy), and Volgograd Oblast, totaling 80 MW of installed capacity. The primary Krasnoyarsk facility is located in Berezovsky district, Berezovka settlement, approximately 30 minutes from Krasnoyarsk International Airport. Standard colocation contracts include initial rack setup and configuration, facility access and orientation, 24/7 on-site technical maintenance, physical security, and equipment repair. For clients seeking to build scale without managing infrastructure procurement independently, Sibmain also offers a turnkey mining infrastructure program covering design, construction, and ongoing operations of purpose-built facilities.
All sites run exclusively on hydroelectric power under long-term strategic partnerships with Siberian Generating Company (Sibirskaya Generiruyushchaya Kompaniya) and En+ Group. Both partners operate large-scale hydro capacity across Siberia's electricity-surplus regions, enabling Sibmain to publish fixed-rate electricity tariffs: a 24/7 daytime rate starting at 4.8 RUB/kWh (VAT included) and a nighttime-and-weekend rate from 3.3 RUB/kWh (VAT included), the latter applying for 16 hours on weekdays and around the clock on weekends and public holidays.
Service-level commitments include a 99% uptime guarantee (capped at 24 hours of planned technical downtime per year), with 24/7 on-site monitoring teams and a 7-minute maximum response time for machines that go offline. Sibmain also markets a managed investment product bundling ASIC procurement and colocation for clients seeking passive exposure to mining economics. The company's official customs clearance services and fixed-rate energy pricing via two of Siberia's largest hydro producers position it among established colocation operators in Russia's formalized cryptocurrency mining sector.
