Frankfurt/Main –  7 October 2022 – Northern Data AG (XETRA: NB2, ISIN: DE000A0SMU87) today issued an update on business activities in September 2022, reporting cash proceeds of around EUR 5.3 million from the sale of cryptocurrencies during that month alone.

Bitcoin Mining

The mining segment has installed a total of 25,952 ASIC systems as of 30 September 2022. The maximum available computing capacity for Bitcoin (excluding hosting) at the end of September was around 2.39 EH/s. The company’s advantageous energy sourcing strategy avoids reliance on risky take-or-pay contracts and allows the company, especially in a bear market, to cope with higher energy prices at the cost of production. This reduced the applicable hashrate from 2.39 EH/s to 1.54 EH/s in September. A total of 162 Bitcoin were mined (excluding hosting) in September 2022, up approximately 33% from the September 2021 production of 122 BTC.
