Cypherpunk Unleashes Massive Zcash Mining Operation
Cypherpunk Technologies has made a significant move in the Zcash ecosystem by launching what it claims is the world's largest Zcash mining operation. The company acquired a mining fleet from Winklevoss Capital through an equity-based transaction valued at $33.33 million.
The mining operation, which is already online at facilities across the United States, produces around 4.2 GSol/s, accounting for approximately 18% of the Zcash network's current hashrate.
This acquisition adds to Cypherpunk's existing Zcash holdings, which currently stand at 323,394 ZEC, representing about 1.9% of the cryptocurrency's circulating supply. The company aims to eventually hold 5% of the ZEC supply.
