In addition, the company announced the completion of a spin-off with Viking Data Centers LLC in developing and operating the Ohio cryptocurrency mining data center (the “Ohio Mining Site”). The company had been jointly developing the Ohio Mining Site with Viking Data Centers through its affiliate for a total planned power capacity of 150 megawatts (“MW”). After completion of the spin-off, the company, through its affiliate, has exclusive access to 82.5MW of planned electrical power and Viking Data Centers has exclusive access to the remaining 67.5MW, in accordance to their respective equity ownership immediately prior to the spin-off.
“We will continue to devote our resources to the Ohio Mining Site in light of better cost control and operational efficiency improvement,” said Xianfeng Yang, CEO of the company. “While the cooperation with Viking Data Centers has helped with our initial entrance into the North American market, we believe that carving out the Ohio Mining Site business will further enhance our overall operational efficiency as we expand our business. Going forward, we are considering collaborations with Viking Data Centers on other projects. We will continue to execute on our plan, investing in technology, innovation and high-quality mining resources worldwide, while building a strong foundation across the cryptocurrency ecosystem.”
