Our Structure
All companies in our ecosystem together create Green Mining DAO. GM Data Centers AG is the founding entity and functions as the backbone of our operations, securing power, initiating projects, and providing scalable services to its subsidiaries (GM3, GM4, etc.). This enables each entity to focus solely on its data center and drying operations while maintaining the highest standards and best practices across all sites.

Subsidiaries of GM Data Centers AG such as GM3 and GM4 raise funds to purchase equipment and build data centers. Each subsidiary operates independently but aligns with our shared vision and operational excellence.
Our Story
Founder Sascha Grumbach discovered Bitcoin in Berlin back in 2012. His exploration of the Bitcoin mining industry throughout the years revealed a troubling pattern: companies often failed to deliver on their promises of environmental responsibility. Determined to change this, in 2022, Sascha joined forces with Valentine Pleser to create Green Mining DAO, a venture rooted in sustainable, innovative, and community-focused Bitcoin mining.
From the start, Green Mining DAO set out to redefine mining practices. By harnessing hydroelectric energy, the company minimizes carbon emissions while repurposing excess heat to dry fruits, combining profitability with sustainability. Operating as a Decentralized Asset Organization (DAO), Green Mining DAO emphasizes transparency, inclusivity, and shared decision-making, embodying the decentralized ethos of blockchain technology.
Our latest flagship project, Green Mine 3 (GM3), takes this vision further. GM3 democratizes access to Bitcoin mining by offering investors Bitcoin at production cost, eliminating barriers typically associated with mining. Powered entirely by renewable energy, GM3 achieves CO2-neutral operations, ensuring minimal environmental impact while delivering long-term profitability.

I started my journey with Green Mining DAO as an early investor — today, I’m part of the team.
After years of mixed experiences in the crypto space, I was looking for a transparent, reliable, and sustainable way to participate in Bitcoin mining.
When I discovered Green Mining DAO, I immediately saw the difference: real assets, real transparency, and a team with deep expertise and a clear long-term vision.
The open communication, the immediate and consistent distributions, and the strong sense of community convinced me that this was unlike anything I had seen before.
What began as an investment quickly turned into trust — and that trust grew into a partnership.
Today, I contribute not only as an investor, but as a team member helping to build and scale Green Mining DAO’s vision for the future.

Investing in Bitcoin and Bitcoin mining carries significant risks, including the potential for total loss. Past performance does not guarantee future results. While GM3 Technologies AG has operated profitably in previous quarters and targets an annual return of up to 20%, actual returns may vary and are not guaranteed. Bitcoin mining profitability depends on multiple factors such as energy pricing, hardware efficiency, operational uptime, and the market value of Bitcoin. Bitcoin payouts are subject to economic success and corresponding shareholder resolution. Distributions referenced in shareholder resolutions dated 22 April and 20 August 2025 reflect historical decisions and do not imply future payouts. Testimonials express individual opinions only and do not guarantee specific outcomes. Future performance remains subject to market conditions and operational factors, and cannot be assured.
