Financial sector

Runs Bitcoin mining while rebuilding online gaming in mainland China and developing the9bit. Its mix of games, digital assets and AI-powered creation reflects repeated changes in business focus.

Bitcoin mining remains active while online gaming is expanding again through collaborations with gaming companies in mainland China. the9bit is a company-presented AI-powered game-creation and digital-asset platform.

The group shifted its primary focus to cryptocurrency mining, providing hash rate to a Bitcoin mining pool for a share of its awards. It later returned to online gaming, using collaborations to re-enter mainland China.

Games, digital assets, AI-powered creation and mining now sit alongside one another rather than forming a stable, single-industry identity. Jun Zhu’s majority voting power made The9 a Nasdaq-defined controlled company.
