Stronghold Digital Mining Reaches Hash Rate Milestone of 3.0 EH/s

NEW YORK, May 30, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stronghold Digital Mining, Inc. (NASDAQ: SDIG) (“Stronghold”, the “Company”, or “we”) today provided an operational update on its Bitcoin mining operations:

Bitcoin Mining

Over Memorial Day weekend, Stronghold’s Bitcoin mining operations achieved a hash rate of 3.0 EH/s. Stronghold achieved this milestone approximately one month earlier than expected. Of the 3.0 EH/s, approximately 80% is wholly owned by the Company and not subject to a profit share. During the second half of May 2023, the Company received the 5,000 MicroBT Whatsminer M50 Bitcoin mining rigs related to its previously announced miner purchase. This was in addition to the initial 2,000 Avalon 1246 Bitcoin mining rigs associated with the Company’s previously announced Canaan Bitcoin Mining Agreement that were delivered in early May. Stronghold expects to receive the remaining 2,000 Avalon 1346 Bitcoin mining rigs pursuant to the Canaan Bitcoin Mining Agreement in June 2023. During May 2023, Stronghold expects to earn over 220 Bitcoin through its mining operations, a sequential increase of approximately 23% from its 179 Bitcoin mined during April 2023.

The Company continues to actively evaluate incremental opportunities, representing over 1 EH/s, to fill its remaining data center slots. While no assurances can be made that Stronghold will be able to consummate any of these transactions, the Company continues to believe that it will be able to fill its existing 4 EH/s of data center capacity by the end of the third quarter of 2023. Beyond the 4 EH/s of data center capacity at the Company’s wholly owned Scrubgrass and Panther Creek plants, Stronghold is also currently evaluating opportunities to deploy its additional 25 MW of end-to-end data center equipment that it owns in inventory. This includes 20 proprietary StrongBox containers and the transformers, breakers, and switchgear to support them.

Stronghold is a vertically integrated Bitcoin mining company with an emphasis on environmentally beneficial operations. Stronghold houses its miners at its wholly owned and operated Scrubgrass and Panther Creek plants, both of which are low-cost, environmentally beneficial coal refuse power generation facilities in Pennsylvania.
