Cypherpunk Acquires Largest Active Zcash Mining Fleet
Cypherpunk Technologies has acquired a significant Zcash mining fleet for $33.33 million, giving it approximately 18% of the network's total computing power.
The acquisition includes a 4.2 GSol/s Bitmain Z15 Pro fleet operating at hosting facilities across the United States and producing around 7,800 ZEC per month.
Cypherpunk paid for the equipment with a pre-funded warrant covering 43.29 million common shares, valuing its stock at $0.77 per share.
The company now holds about 1.92% of the circulating Zcash supply and aims to reach 5%. The mining operation will provide tokens for its treasury, fund investments in privacy technology, and generate cash for expansion.
