SOS stock forecast

Fort Wayne, Texas has officially become the first city government to mine for Bitcoin after a vote passed last week. The city will mine Bitcoin directly from its City Hall, with three Antminer S9 rigs which will run twenty-four hours per day and seven days per week. The city is starting small, but it could open the door for more cities to look into Bitcoin mining as an extra source of revenue.
