#14 Why Every Company, Regardless of Industry, Should Be Mining Bitcoin

How to Deduct Hundreds of Thousands in Taxes While Earning Bitcoin Every Day

Most business owners have never looked at Bitcoin mining through a fiscal lens. They see it as something technical, complex, or reserved for large energy companies. Yet behind the hardware and the fans lies a tax reality so powerful that, when applied correctly, it can transform how a company manages both its taxes and its treasury.

Depreciation is one of the most misunderstood and underused fiscal tools and also one of the most powerful. Real estate investors, for instance, can depreciate a property over almost four decades. It’s a solid strategy, but painfully slow.

Mining equipment, on the other hand ASIC servers, power supplies, racks, cooling systems can often be depreciated almost entirely in the first year. And depending on the country, even immediately.

That timing difference changes everything.

In many jurisdictions, accelerated depreciation rules vary, but the core idea remains the same. In the United States, for example, bonus depreciation allows you to deduct 100% of your investment in the same fiscal year. In Spain or Mexico, the mechanism is similar, though the percentages and timeframes differ. But the essence remains: a drastic reduction in taxable income the year you invest, without compromising future cash flow.

Imagine this scenario.

Your company earns €900,000 in annual profit. You decide to allocate €350,000 to purchase ASIC equipment and electrical infrastructure to launch a modest mining operation, not to compete with industrial players, but to build a productive asset inside your balance sheet.

If the tax code allows you to deduct that investment immediately, you lower your taxable base by €350,000. With an effective tax rate of 30%, that translates into an instant tax saving of €105,000.

And while that fiscal benefit hits right away, your miners keep producing Bitcoin every single day for the next five or six years.

That’s the essential difference.

In a traditional model, you buy an asset, depreciate it slowly, and the tax advantage trickles in over time. With mining, the benefit comes first, and the operational income follows.

It’s essentially a tax deduction that produces cash flow.

Why does mining equipment qualify while buildings don’t?

Because it meets three fundamental criteria:

• It’s tangible business equipment used to generate income

• It’s subject to physical wear and technological obsolescence

• It has a recovery period under 20 years, making it eligible for accelerated depreciation

And everything that supports it electrical installation, ventilation systems, transformers also qualifies as part of the same deductible investment.

The practical outcome is that a company can convert part of its profits into productive infrastructure that both generates Bitcoin daily and provides immediate tax protection.

What’s truly interesting is that this applies to any kind of business: an architecture firm, a law office, a tech startup, or even a family winery.

You don’t need to be “a mining company.” You just need to recognize that this is a productive asset with financial, fiscal, and strategic logic.

Let’s look at two simplified examples:

• High-income professional:

  Annual income: €380,000

  Mining investment: €120,000

  Estimated tax savings: €40,000

  Plus: daily Bitcoin generation

• Established company:

  Profit before tax: €900,000

  Mining infrastructure investment: €350,000

  Estimated tax savings: €105,000

  Continuous Bitcoin production for 6 years

The key is designing a fiscal architecture adapted to your country. In some jurisdictions, immediate depreciation applies through incentives for technology investments. In others, through programs for industrial innovation or energy efficiency.

In all cases, Bitcoin mining becomes a smart fiscal asset, especially if the BTC generated is held as part of your corporate treasury long term.

Behind every miner, there is, in essence, a tax reduction machine.

And when that machine, beyond reducing taxes, produces a scarce, liquid, global asset, you’re building something far greater than a fiscal advantage.

You’re building a structure of financial sovereignty inside your company.

The reality is simple.

If an asset allows you to deduct taxes, generate cash flow, and accumulate something that historically appreciates in value, it’s not just a good investment.

It’s the best money-printing machine in the world.

And you get tax benefits for using it.
