Australia has taken new actions in the critical minerals sector. As one of the world's largest mineral resource countries, it has made strategic adjustments regarding rare mineral reserves. For the crypto mining industry that relies on chips and hardware, such supply chain changes are worth paying attention to.

Australia's moves could influence the manufacturing costs and technological advancements of global mining equipment in the coming years.
