CleanSpark Mines 445 BTC in June and Surpasses 20 EH/s Goal

A Nevada Bitcoin miner, CleanSpark, raised June Bitcoin production by 6.7% to mine 445 BTC, surpassing its mid-year hash rate goal of 20 EH/s.

This achievement comes after the commissioning of 1.7 EH/s of new mining capacity in five new facilities in Georgia, USA acquired recently. CleanSpark’s hash rate is now at 20.4 EH/s as of June 30, which is significantly higher than the capacities recorded in December of this year. 

According to the official announcement, CleanSpark mined 445 Bitcoins in June and kept all of them except for 8, and therefore, their Bitcoin balance is now 6,591 BTC. At today’s market price, this stockpile is worth over $4 billion. 

CEO Zach Bradford showed a positive attitude towards the company’s development path, stating that they are focused on the further enhancement of mining capacities and the corresponding revenues. 

Hash rate success puts CleanSpark in the league of some of the biggest Bitcoin miners in the world, behind Marathon Digital and Core Scientific. Plans by Bradford included the expansion of operations, and the company set its sights on attaining a hashrate of 50 EH/s. 

Nevertheless, CLSK has been experiencing a downfall; CleanSpark’s stock 5.52% declined to $16.93, according to Google Finance. However, the stock has been very strong, with a 55.6% increase year to date and an astonishing 247.6% increase within the last year. 

Similarly, in the recent past, CleanSpark has declared a $155 million merger with GRIID Infrastructure that entails the purchase of GRIID’s outstanding common stock and extra power capacity of 20MW. This particular move is expected to enhance CleanSpark’s base and operating capacity as the company continues with its expansion plans. 

The rest of the Bitcoin mining industry has had companies such as CleanSpark expand into artificial intelligence and cloud computing to find other sources of revenue. Other major miners who are also exploring such opportunities include Core Scientific, TeraWulf, Hut 8 Corp, and Northern Data AG. 

This concise report encapsulates CleanSpark’s recent milestones and strategic initiatives in the competitive Bitcoin mining sector, providing clarity on its performance and future outlook.
