AsianFin -- Bitcoin miner Bitdeer (BTDR) plans to expand its rig manufacturing and invest further in U.S. operations, even as tariffs under President Donald Trump complicate access to key equipment.

Speaking to Decrypt, Chief Financial Advisor Jeff LaBerge said the Nasdaq-listed company remains focused on growth despite slimmer profits, rising costs, and an increasingly uncertain macroeconomic environment.

LaBerge noted that Trump’s pro-crypto stance could provide tailwinds for the industry, even as his trade policies create new hurdles for mining equipment imports.
