Leadership insights

“September was a productive month, which included our sponsorship of major blockchain events in Europe. HIVE is also listed in Germany. We’re progressing well with our growth plan in Paraguay, with a goal to be 2 per cent of the Bitcoin mining network by late 2025, which equates to around 9 Bitcoin produced daily. By the end of September, we were already achieving over 4 Bitcoin per day,” Frank Holmes, executive chairman of HIVE Digital Technologies, said in a statement.

“Our primary focus is on upgrading our ASIC fleet, currently operating at 128 MW,” added Aydin Kilic, HIVE’s president and chief executive officer. “Over the next six months, we’ll be enhancing efficiency by replacing older ASICs with S21 Pro models. This upgrade is expected based on factors known today to lower our Bitcoin production cost to approximately US$28,500 at current difficulty levels.”
