Vancouver, Canada | February 28, 2024 07:04 AM Eastern Standard Time
Hive Digital Technologies Chief Financial Officer Darcy Daubaras joined Steve Darling from Proactive and shared significant updates regarding the company's Bitcoin mining operations.
He announced the purchase of 1,000 Bitmain S21 Antminers, which will add 200 petahash per second of high-efficiency Bitcoin mining capacity to the company's operations. The S21 Antminer is recognized as one of the newest and most efficient Bitcoin mining ASIC systems, boasting a remarkable energy efficiency of 17.5 joules per terahash.
Additionally, Daubaras disclosed that Hive Digital Technologies has further strengthened its position by accumulating 2,070 Bitcoin on its balance sheet as of February 21, 2024. This proactive approach aligns with the company's strategic preparation for the upcoming Bitcoin Halving event, expected in late April 2024.
Rather than expanding its physical footprint, the company has opted to upgrade its mining fleet with the latest and most efficient machines available. This strategic decision aims to lower the average costs of Bitcoin production and enhance operational efficiency. By upgrading to the S21 Antminers, Hive Digital Technologies plans to increase its target Exahash from 5.3 EH/s to 5.5 EH/s by the end of June 2024, leveraging its 140 MW of operating infrastructure globally.
