Deutsche Telekom, the parent company of T-Mobile,&nbsp; has revealed that it aims to begin Bitcoin mining, expanding on its current crypto-related activities. 
Dirk Röder, Deutsche Telekom’s head of Web3 infrastructure, announced plans to expand into Bitcoin mining at the BTC Prague conference. This initiative expands on their previous operations, which include running Bitcoin nodes since 2023 and maintaining Bitcoin Lightning Network nodes. 
Röder’s reference to “digital monetary photosynthesis” alluded to a future endeavor that could incorporate novel techniques to value creation or participation in decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystems. 
Deutsche Telekom has also served as a validator on the Polygon blockchain network since June 2023. As one of 100 validators, the telecoms behemoth offers staking and validation services that support Polygon’s proof-of-stake consensus method. 
This function not only improves network security but also allows Deutsche Telekom to capitalize on new revenue sources in the blockchain industry. 
Moreover, Deutsche Telekom joined the area of decentralized artificial intelligence (AI) by becoming a validator on Fetch.ai’s blockchain in February. This collaboration intends to use AI-powered autonomous agents to improve services in industries such as healthcare, automotive, supply chain management, and digital identity. 
These efforts reflect Deutsche Telekom’s strategic move toward incorporating blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies into its future business operations, to capitalize on their potential for innovation and revenue growth.
