By using Square\u2019s APIs through Zaprite, the company continues simplifying the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/guides\/bitcoin-mining\">Bitcoin mining<\/a> process for individuals and businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;As more governments and companies move to create Bitcoin treasuries, the value of Bitcoin is becoming increasingly clear to the broader public,&#8221; said the CEO and Co-Founder of Sazmining Kent Halliburton. &#8220;But building a bitcoin treasury starts with acquiring bitcoin. With Sazmining, individuals and businesses alike can now create a native treasury more easily and affordably\u2014thanks to our implementation of Square.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sazmining has also launched an equity crowdfunding campaign to raise $618,000 aimed at helping more people mine Bitcoin directly instead of relying on exchanges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More information about Sazmining <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sazmining.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sazmining adds Square to support credit cards, digital wallets, and crypto payments for its Bitcoin mining services, while launching a $618k crowdfunding campaign.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3788,"featured_media":46038,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4378],"tags":[76,189,477,1414,749],"class_list":{"0":"post-46037","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-bitcoin","9":"tag-bitcoin-mining","10":"tag-payments","11":"tag-sazmining","12":"tag-square"},"author_data":{"id":3788,"name":"Oscar Zarraga Perez","nicename":"oscarperez","avatar_url":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cropped-Oscar-Zarraga-Perez-96x96.jpg"},"featured_image_url":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Sazmining-Becomes-First-Bitcoin-Mining-Firm-to-Integrate-Square-for-Payments.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46037","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3788"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=46037"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46037\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/46038"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=46037"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=46037"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=46037"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
