The law mandates a two-year moratorium on new fossil fuel-powered cryptocurrency mining operations in New York.

The law marks the first temporary suspension of new licenses for fossil fuel power plants used for proof-of-work cryptocurrency mining in the nation. Following the news, Riot Blockchain rose 10.78%, Mawson Infrastructure increased 14.29%, and TeraWulf's share price increased 33.59%.

In a tweet earlier today, the CEO of TeraWulf stated: "TeraWulf anticipated policy and legislative efforts like this, and apparently, Gov. Hochul anticipated zero carbon crypto mining efforts like ours!"
