Executive summary

  • Installed hashrate reached 10.1 EH/s, up 23% year-over-year, and Project ABC saw a 10% increase in installed hashrate and positive cash flow.

  • Cash balance was $66 million as of June 30, 2026, up 52% quarter-over-quarter, supported by monetizing 3,952 ETH and 54 BTC for $13.9 million.

  • The company advanced R&D in cost-effective mining machines and consumer heating products, and responded to market headwinds by matching production to demand and streamlining operations.
