- As previously announced in April of this year, HIVE started mining Ethereum Classic before the prices surged to the current price of US$75 a coin, and continues to mine Ethereum Classic due to its profitability. We have chosen to mine and sell Ethereum Classic to assist in covering electricity and basic general & administrative costs while saving in cold wallets our Bitcoin and Ethereum production.
- HIVE continues to be a Holder of mined Bitcoin and Ethereum coins and has been banking them in cold wallets. Our continued strategy is one to continue holding coins, as we feel that it will benefit our shareholders. The current dollar value of our crypto assets is approximately US $79 million (based on US $2,700 Ethereum and US $38,500 Bitcoin) and cash is US $36 million. The value of the coins have been volatile while our cash position remains stable and healthy.
