This kind of work is called "mining" which means "mining" in Japanese, and it has become a big business in the world.



On the 13th, the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom released an estimate of the share of mining business by country as of August.



According to it, the United States, which accounted for 35.4% of the world market share, was ranked first, Kazakhstan with 18.1%, and Russia with 11.2%.



China, which accounted for three-quarters of the world's market share about two years ago, has been zero since July, as mining was totally banned in May as an illegal activity.

Companies that are no longer able to do business in China are entering these regions one after another, and the center of business has shifted from China to the United States.
