As a seasoned analyst with over two decades of experience in tech and finance, I can’t help but see this partnership between Canaan Inc. (NASDAQ: CAN) and HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. as a strategic move that could potentially revolutionize the cryptocurrency mining landscape.
Canaan Inc., a company that specializes in high-performance computing solutions (traded as CAN on NASDAQ), revealed today that their Singapore subsidiary, Canaan Creative Global Pte. Ltd. (CCG), has struck a deal with HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. To deliver 6,500 of its custom-made Avalon A1566 mining machines, which are optimized for Bitcoin mining.
These devices are true power workhorses, capable of producing approximately 185 trillion hashes every second (TH/s). As per the press statement, the initial 500 units have begun their journey towards HIVE and will be set up shortly, with subsequent deliveries arriving in installments over the coming months, starting from next month and continuing until March 2025.
HIVE Digital, a Canadian firm specializing in eco-conscious cryptocurrency mining, views this as a significant enhancement to their mining operations.
HIVE’s Executive Chairman, Frank Holmes, commented that our careful financial management enables us to quickly take advantage of chances for enhancing the performance of ASICs (Application-Specific Integrated Circuits),” he said.
This substantial order is incorporated into a broader strategy for HIVE, which is concurrently constructing a 100-megawatt mining complex in Paraguay. By the next year, the firm intends to substantially boost its overall computational power (hashrate), aiming to attain a higher level of efficiency and output using Canaan’s equipment.
Canaan’s chief executive officer, Nangeng Zhang, showed enthusiasm about collaborating with HIVE. He referred to them as a “trusted client” and a “leader in Bitcoin mining.” He commended HIVE for their transparency and commitment to eco-friendly mining, which mirrors Canaan’s objectives and principles.
In other words, this achievement is not the first significant moment for Canaan; they are well-known in the mining industry and were among the pioneers who developed ASIC-based mining equipment as early as 2013.
