Bitcoin miner Canaan seeks $148M in equity amid revenue slump

  • Wechat scan to share

Bitcoin mining company Canaan is looking for new funding after experiencing a decline in revenue and profits. In its Q3 2023 earnings report, the company announced plans to sell $148 million in equity through an at-the-market offering. Canaan also recently agreed to issue up to 125,000 preferred stock at $1,000 each to an undisclosed institutional investor for a total of $125 million. The decline in revenue is attributed to a decrease in the number of Bitcoin mined and a fall in the number of ASIC mining rigs sold, as well as increased pricing competition and a softening in purchasing power. Canaan expects its Q4 revenue to remain unchanged due to challenging market conditions.

  • EIA Temporarily Suspends Emergency Survey of Bitcoin Mining Industry

    The US Department of Energy has temporarily suspended its emergency survey of Bitcoin mining operators' energy usage. The Energy Information Administration (EIA) will halt its mandatory survey for over a month and keep the data that had already been secured from stakeholders in the Bitcoin mining industry earlier this February. Riot Platforms and the Texas Blockchain Council had previously sued the administration of President Joe Biden, planning to boycott the survey citing that it could cause potential harm to businesses by compelling them to release confidential and sensitive information. The plaintiffs requested a permanent injunction from the court which mandates that EIA first complies with the law before going ahead to request the data.
