Bitfarms, a Canadian Bitcoin mining company, increased its BTC production by 21% in June despite challenges.
In June, Bitfarms gained 189 BTC, which is significantly more than the previous months, and sold 134 of them, generating revenue of $8.8 million.
However, this production reflects A 51% decrease compared to June 2023, mainly due to the recent halving event which reduced miners’ rewards by 50%, affecting global Bitcoin mining.
June was key for Bitfarms in improving mining capabilities. The company increased its hashing power to 11.4 exahashes per second (EH/s), with 10.4 EH/s already operational.
This represents a remarkable increase of 96% year-on-year and 39% month-on-month. Bitfarms’ goal is to reach 21 EH/s by the end of 2024.
As of July 1, the company holds 905 Bitcoin tokens worth approximately $57 million.
Despite common fears that global crises spell disaster for crypto markets, new data from Binance Research suggests the opposite may be true — at least for Bitcoin.
A new report by crypto analytics firm Alphractal reveals that Bitcoin miners are facing some of the lowest profitability levels in over a decade — yet have shown little sign of capitulation.
Bitcoin’s network hashrate has fallen 3.5% since mid-June, marking the sharpest decline in computing power since July 2024.
Bitcoin has officially overtaken Alphabet (Google’s parent company) in global asset rankings, becoming the sixth most valuable asset in the world, according to the latest real-time market data.
