Neighbors in Granbury, Texas have filed a lawsuit alleging that the noise from a Bitcoin mine operated by Marathon Digital is causing them stress, loss of sleep, and other health issues.
The lawsuit seeks a permanent injunction to stop operation of the facility unless it can operate without producing disruptive noise.
The Marathon Digital facility is located alongside a gas-fired power plant called Wolf Hollow II, and residents have voiced concerns about the proposed expansion of the natural gas facility.
Residents are organized under the name Citizens Concerned About Wolf Hollow, and they are being represented by the environmental law group Earthjustice.
