Custodial services for digital currencies
As a result of the potential contagion from the recent collapse of FTX, the Company made the decision to move a majority of its digital currencies to an offline cold storage wallet in order to better safeguard its assets. This change in custodial practices is consistent with the Company’s risk management strategy in the current market environment.
North Tonawanda Power Plant Acquisition Update
The Company continues to move forward with closing documentation and approval requirements related to Digihost’s acquisition of a 60 MW power plant in North Tonawanda, NY (“NT“). Management anticipates this transaction will close in Q1 of 2023 providing the Company with additional computing capacity of approximately 1.04 EH based upon a power generation run rate of approximately 50 MW from the plant.
When combined with Digihost’s current operations total computing capacity from the Company’s New York State (“NY”) operations is projected to be approximately 1.7 EH.
