Management Commentary
“Despite the increase in network difficulty and decrease in transaction fees, and many of our peers facing downtime and/or curtailed operations due to geographic concentration in Texas, TeraWulf increased its monthly bitcoin production by
“The expansion of the former power block data center area at the Lake Mariner facility was completed near the end of June, which now holds more than 4,700 miners (or 0.5 EH/s) – a prime example of how TeraWulf drives down capital expenditures by utilizing legacy energy and power infrastructure to maximize profitability,” continued Langlais. “We continue to prepare for the next Bitcoin block halving event, currently anticipated in April 2024, with a firm belief that all hash is not equal. Our demonstrated execution capabilities, substantial organic growth opportunities at our two sites, and industry-low power prices, reflect the strength of TeraWulf’s vertically integrated strategy which we expect will further define us as the leading sustainable, low-cost bitcoin miner.”

In June, TeraWulf announced its achievement of 5.5 EH/s of operating capacity with the completion of Building 2 at its Lake Mariner facility. In the coming weeks, the Company will activate its remaining slots to bring Lake Mariner’s self-mining hash rate to a total of 3.6 EH/s and the total self-mining hash rate to 5.5 EH/s and 160 MW of capacity across its two sites.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company had an operational miner fleet of approximately 50,000 of the latest generation miners, comprised of 34,000 miners at its wholly owned Lake Mariner facility in New York (5,000 of which are hosted) and 16,000 self-miners at the nuclear-powered Nautilus facility in Pennsylvania.
