About Us

DPO created the Cryptocurrency Mining as a Service (CMaaS)™  industry.  DPO was formed in early 2020 when our founder realized the growing need for a better solution for the management of electrical load imbalances.  These imbalances result from a number of factors, but one of the most important and challenging is the increasing use of renewable power generation sources, such as wind and solar, across the world's power grids.  While extremely clean and "green," these sources are also highly variable and unpredictable and can therefore lead to large swings in total power generation depending on time of day, month of the year, and weather.  This volatility in output can create meaningful movements in the underlying power prices, making it difficult for power producers of all types to optimize their production and profitability at any given time.

DPO's overriding thesis is that there should never be another underutilized electrical generation asset given the immensely profitable and readily available use case of mining cryptocurrency.  Furthermore, because of several specific and unique traits, cryptocurrency mining makes an almost perfect application for these types of uneven and variable power flows.  DPO was created to help those companies and asset owners better manage the usage of their asset and maximize both operational efficiency as well as overall profitability.
