BITF Bitfarms Ltd

Bitfarms Ltd. (NASDAQ: BITF//TSX: BITF), a global vertically integrated Bitcoin mining company, provides a monthly update for November 2023.

“In November, we delivered solid performance in the face of network difficulty increases from more miners coming online going into the 2024 Halving and, in anticipation of the Halving, we initiated our 2024 transformative fleet upgrade plan. We placed a firm purchase order for 35,888 high-performance Bitmain T21 miners, which are scheduled for deliveries from March 2024 to May 2024,” said Geoff Morphy, CEO of Bitfarms. “Deploying these new miners at seven of our eight existing farms in Quebec in conjunction with the development of our new Paso Pe, Paraguay site, we expect to increase our operating capacity 29% to 310 MW and our hashrate 88% to 12 EH/s in H1 2024. With a contract price of $14.00/TH and advanced high energy features applying to the purchase order and the option in H2 2024 for 28,000 additional miners, these next-gen miners will drive significant efficiencies throughout our portfolio and generate improved profit margins.”

Ben Gagnon, Chief Mining Officer of Bitfarms, said, “With our upgrade path, we are positioned to dramatically grow hashrate in H1 2024 as we receive and install one of the largest fleets of air-cooled miners currently made. We have matched timely capital allocation with a strategic miner deployment schedule that aligns well with the upcoming Halving, ensuring our halving readiness and positioning us to benefit significantly from the anticipated Bitcoin bull market.”

Mining Review

November production of 392 BTC declined 1.5% from October as network difficulty increased 19.0% in November compared to 9.4% in October, reflecting the continuing strong demand for miners going into the 2024 Halving.
