Bitfarms Ltd. (NASDAQ: BITF // TSXV: BITF), a global Bitcoin
self-mining company, received and installed 1,500 Bitmain S19j Pro
miners in November, increasing its hashrate to exceed 2 Exahash per
second (EH/s).
“Bitfarms reached the important milestone of 2
EH/s in a mere eight months compared to the 3 years and 10 months
that it took us to attain 1 EH/s,” said Emiliano Grodzki, Bitfarms
Founder and Chief Executive Officer. “Doubling our corporate
hashrate in a matter of months is a tremendous accomplishment. This
is a testament to the incredible operations teams Bitfarms and our
wholly owned electrical engineering subsidiary, Volta Électrique,
have developed over the last four years of continuous operation.
Doing so in the same time that the Bitcoin network has only grown
approximately 12% means that Bitfarms has accumulated a larger
share of the network hashrate and Bitcoin mining rewards.”
“In 2022, we expect to ramp our hashrate even
faster. Bitfarms is already one of the largest Bitcoin miners, not
just in North America, but globally. As we continue to execute on
our expansion plans, we expect to continue to outpace Bitcoin
network growth to drive even higher Bitcoin production numbers
throughout 2022,” concluded Grodzki.
