Insights
This operational update reveals significant expansion and strategic positioning in the crypto mining sector. Key highlights include: secured wafer capacity for 35 EH/s of SEALMINER A2 production (up from 18 EH/s), full reservation of initial 30,000 units for external sale and successful closing of a
Monthly performance metrics show relative stability in proprietary hash rate at 8.8 EH/s and moderate Bitcoin production of 150 BTC. The expansion of hosting services by 2.6 EH/s indicates strong market demand. The diversification into AI cloud services with NVIDIA H200 deployment and geographical expansion demonstrates strategic adaptation to emerging tech trends.
The company's infrastructure development strategy is comprehensive and well-distributed geographically. The Rockdale facility's hydro-cooling conversion, though slightly delayed, represents technological advancement in cooling efficiency. The Bhutan facility (500 MW) and Norway expansion (175 MW) demonstrate strategic positioning in regions with favorable power costs. The total pipeline capacity of 1,645 MW represents significant growth potential.
Notable is the diversification of power sources and locations, reducing geographical and regulatory risks. The planned expansion across multiple sites indicates careful capacity scaling, with attention to power infrastructure and cooling solutions. The integration of AI capabilities in datacenters shows forward-thinking infrastructure planning beyond just crypto mining.

1 Total hash rate under management as of November 30, 2024 across the Company’s three primary business lines: Self-mining, Cloud Hash Rate, and Hosting.
- Self-mining refers to cryptocurrency mining for the Company’s own account, which allows it to directly capture the high appreciation potential of cryptocurrency.
- Cloud Hash Rate offers hash rate subscription plans and shares mining income with customers under certain arrangements. The Cloud Hash Rate stated above reflects the contracted hash rate with customers at month-end. However, throughout the month, the Cloud Hash Rate may transition to Self-mining hash rate if customers opt to not make their monthly electricity payments for various reasons.
- Hosting encompasses a one-stop mining machine hosting solution including deployment, maintenance, and management services for efficient cryptocurrency mining.
2 Self-owned mining machines are for the Company’s self-mining business and Cloud Hash Rate business.
3 Bitcoins held do not include the Bitcoins from deposits of the customers.
