Key Takeaways
According to BlockchainReporter, Bitcoin miner Cango Inc. reported a 50% drop in Q2 revenue to $50.8 million and an $81.6 million net loss.
According to BlockchainReporter, Bitcoin miner Cango Inc. reported on August 31 that its second-quarter revenue fell roughly 50% from the prior quarter to US$50.8 million. The company experienced an US$81.6 million net loss as it deliberately reduced its operating hashrate and retired older mining machines. Bitcoin mining generated US$47.4 million of the total revenue, while US$3.4 million came from other sources. Cango attributed the decline to its proactive reduction of operating hashrate, phasing out older S19-series machines, and moving some capacity to a leasing model.
As of June 30, Cango ended the quarter with 27.58 EH/s of total operating hashrate, comprising 19.84 EH/s of self-mining capacity and 7.74 EH/s of leased capacity. The footprint reduction lowered electricity and hosting costs but generated US$42.9 million in impairment losses on mining machines and an US$8.5 million loss on disposals. During the quarter, Cango launched a Bitcoin hedging program and held 1,056 BTC in treasury at the end of June. Chief Executive Paul Yu stated that the company continued to deliver on its AI modular build, completing conversion at its Georgia site in early July to support up to 3 megawatts.
