Management Commentary

“In June, Bitdeer made substantial progress in advancing our strategic initiatives in Bitcoin mining and HPC and AI,” stated Linghui Kong, Chief Business Officer of Bitdeer. “We entered into a 30-year lease agreement with Monroe County Port Authority for 570 MW of ready-to-use power infrastructure. This deal increases our total global contracted power capacity to 2.5 GW, positioning us with one of the industry’s largest power development platforms. This deal not only enhances our operational and strategic flexibility but also supports our ambitious growth objectives in Bitcoin mining and HPC and AI.”

Mr. Kong added, “In June, we also successfully energized the first batch of Sealminers into our datacenters and began rigorous testing. Additionally, we completed the tape-out of our 14 J/TH SEAL02 chip and expect wafer delivery in Q3 2024. We remain on schedule to deploy 3.4 EH/s of our own ASIC technology into our datacenters in Texas and Tydal, Norway by the fourth quarter of 2024, bringing our total proprietary hash rate to 11.8 EH/s by year-end.”

1 Total hash rate under management as of June 30, 2024 across the Company’s three primary business lines: Self-mining, Cloud Hash Rate, and Hosting.

  • Self-mining refers to cryptocurrency mining for the Company’s own account, which allows it to directly capture the high appreciation potential of cryptocurrency.
  • Cloud Hash Rate offers hash rate subscription plans and shares mining income with customers under certain arrangements. The Cloud Hash Rate stated above reflects the contracted hash rate with customers at month-end. However, throughout the month, the Cloud Hash Rate may transition to Self-mining hash rate if customers opt to not make their monthly electricity payments for various reasons.
  • Hosting encompasses a one-stop mining machine hosting solution including deployment, maintenance, and management services for efficient cryptocurrency mining.

2 Self-owned mining machines are for the Company’s self-mining business and Cloud Hash Rate business.
