Is it true that Bitcoin mining operations run in large industrial data centers?
Unclear. Several peer-reviewed and preprint sources describe Bitcoin mining as an industry using specialized ASIC hardware and operating at a scale that interacts with power grids, which is consistent with large industrial operations. None of the retrieved items, however, directly states that Bitcoin mining operations run in large industrial data centers.
