Hut 8 Announces Installation of New Equipment
Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – September 18, 2020) – Hut 8 Mining Corp. (TSX: HUT) (OTCQX: HUTMF) (“Hut 8” or “the Company“), one of the world’s largest public cryptocurrency mining companies by operating capacity and market capitalization, announces that they’ve received the planned 1,000 M31S and 1,000 M31S+ machines on-site at its Medicine Hat facility, most of which are already operating. This equipment will collectively have an output of 154 PH/s using approximately 6.7MW of power. The remainder of the bitcoin equipment purchase, which consists of 1,590 M30S units, will be shipped in November 2020 providing an additional output of 140 PH/s using approximately 5.3MW.
“With the recent press releases over the last six weeks including this new equipment being installed, the transfer of Clarke chips to Medicine Hat completed, and the transfer of management of both sites finalized, Hut 8 has increased its hash rate while lowering its cost to mine bitcoin, thereby strengthening its gross mining margins,” commented Jimmy Vaiopoulos, Interim CEO. “Every dollar and bitcoin counts in the mining sector as we continue to upgrade our ASIC chips and strive to be one of the industry’s lowest cost miners.”
