VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. (TSX-V: DMGI) (OTCQB US: DMGGF) (FRANKFURT: 6AX) (“DMG” or the “Company”), a vertically integrated blockchain and data center technology company, announces its operational results for May 2024:
Key Highlights for May 2024:
- Bitcoin mined: 23 BTC
- Hashrate: 0.94 EH/s
- BTC balance: 449 BTC
In May 2024, DMG mined 23 bitcoin with a realized monthly average hashrate of 0.94 exahashes per second (EH/s). These results demonstrate the Company's ongoing commitment to optimizing its mining operations and increasing efficiency. DMG's bitcoin balance as of May 31, 2024 stands at 449 BTC, reflecting our strategic approach to growth and asset management. This reserve positions DMG favorably for future opportunities to deploy its capital.
As an operational update, DMG now expects it will have its Bitmain T21 mining fleet expected to generate 0.86 EH/s operational in July 2024, a delay from prior guidance of the end of June. The Company expects to have its T21 miners fully installed in its mining containers by the end of June or shortly thereafter. However, the miners will not be energized until they are connected to the Company’s distribution line. Extended lead times for interconnection components are delaying the commissioning of the new mining containers. Combined with its new fleet of fully energized T21s, the Company expects its total fleet hashrate to generate an estimated 1.7 EH/s with a blended fleet efficiency to be approximately 23 J/TH.
Grant of Stock Options
DMG also announces it has granted 1,406,090 stock options (“Options”) to employees and directors of the Company. The Options are exercisable for a period of five years at a price of $0.61 per share and will vest as to 25% on each of the six-, 12-, 18- and 24-month anniversaries of the grant date.
