The Mined in America Act of 2026 creates a federal certification program for Bitcoin mining and computing facilities that use U.S.-manufactured or allied-nation equipment, with phased requirements to eliminate foreign adversary hardware by 2030. Certified operators become eligible for federal loans, grants, and procurement support, while the bill expands Department of Energy loan programs and smart grid investment grants to cover these facilities and establishes a new Rural Energy for America Program with local hiring requirements. The legislation also provides tax incentives for certified miners selling Bitcoin to a new Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, funds studies on how mining operations can improve electrical grid reliability and support decentralized AI infrastructure, and directs federal agencies to promote U.S. mining equipment exports to allied nations. Implementation rules must be issued within 180 days, with interim grid studies due within one year and final reports within two years. The bill aims to promote domestic computing infrastructure and reduce reliance on foreign technology while establishing direct Treasury acquisition of Bitcoin from certified domestic sources.
