US Bitcoin Corp to Host Celsius Network Crypto Miners at Alpha Site<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The foremost Bitcoin mining company in North America, US Bitcoin Corp (USBTC), has agreed with Celsius Network to operate an initial 8,500 miners at the USBTC Alpha Site. A press release dated August 31 states that the miners' estimated sticker hash rate is 820 petahash (PH).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

USBTC is a member of the Fahrenheit LLC coalition, which was granted permission by the bankruptcy court to acquire the insolvent lender Celsius Network. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Previously, the assets were valued at approximately $2 billion. The Fahrenheit consortium<\/a> includes Arrington Capital, Proof Group Capital Management, Steven Kokinos, and Ravi Kaza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President of USBTC Asher Genoot stated:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThe opportunity to manage the Celsius assets marked a defining milestone. Together with Fahrenheit, we envision a future where Bitcoin mining is not just profitable but sustainable and industry-advancing.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The company anticipates managing a fleet of more than 310,000 Bitcoin miners, including Celsius's miners. Similar agreements exist between US Bitcoin Corp. and Teslawatt, Marathon Digital, Foundry USA, Sphere 3D, and Decimal Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company will subsequently merge with Hut 8 Mining Corp\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> and be renamed Hut 8 Corp. It intends to establish a publicly traded Bitcoin miner concentrating on “economic mining, highly diversified revenue streams, and industry-leading environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Celsius Networks obtained permission from the court to begin polling its account holders regarding a new proposal to repay an estimated $2 billion in Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) via a new user-owned company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The court has authorized the disclosure statement associated with the joint reorganization plan as meeting the requirements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
