Management Commentary for September
In September, Cipher finalized the buildout of the operations at its Odessa facility and finished the month with the potential to mine up to 16.4 bitcoin2 per day.
“We are delighted to announce that we have completed the final phase of the build-out of the Odessa facility and achieved our Q3 goal of 7.2 EH/s of bitcoin mining capacity across our portfolio,” said Tyler Page, CEO of Cipher. “We are proud to have delivered solid production in a period that was characterized by record temperatures and demand, as well as significant periods of curtailment from our power provider. Over the course of the summer, we were able to improve operations as our team collected and analyzed large amounts of data and made additional changes to optimize the performance of our mining fleet. We are now fully operating at Odessa with the large majority of our curtailment hours behind us. As in previous months, we have reported additional monthly power sales as a bitcoin equivalent figure in the table above.”
