Management Commentary
In August, Cipher continued to expand operations at its Odessa facility and finished the month with the potential to mine up to 16.1 bitcoin2 per day.

“Our team delivered another solid month of production in August,” said Tyler Page, CEO of Cipher. “We saw temperatures and power demand in Texas continue to break records, resulting in the most significant monthly curtailment of the year from our power provider at Odessa. Our operations team continued to overcome challenges as they optimized the performance of our mining rigs in the heat. All rigs are now onsite, and we expect to energize them in early September, which will bring our total self-mining hash rate to 7.2 EH/s and complete the final phase of our Odessa build-out. As in previous months, we have also reported additional monthly power sales as a bitcoin equivalent figure in the table above.

“On the corporate side, we also bolstered our treasury management platform this month by adding a $10mm term credit facility with Coinbase. This facility will be available for us to draw on as an additional tool in the future.”
