Crypto-mining firm Foundry, which is owned by embattled conglomerate Digital Currency Group, is going to start charging users a fee for its Bitcoin mining services.
Foundry USA will begin levying a pool fee on members between April 19 and April 22, according to a notice it circulated to clients on April 6. The Rochester, New York-based company has provided its services for free since launching the mining pool in 2019.
