This combined acquisition elevated Canaan’s cryptocurrency holdings to an unprecedented 1,867 BTC and 3,952 ETH as of May month-end — representing the company’s largest digital asset position to date.

The mining operation concluded May with 10.05 EH/s of deployed hashrate capacity and 6.47 EH/s of active operational hashrate. The variance between deployed and operational capacity stems from the conclusion of a scheduled hosting arrangement.

Regarding performance metrics, Canaan’s North American self-operated mining infrastructure achieved an optimal 17.9 J/TH efficiency rating. Worldwide average efficiency registered at 23.7 J/TH — representing a 13.5% enhancement year-over-year. Mean electricity expenses remained steady at $0.043 per kilowatt-hour.

Canaan’s collaborative mining ventures, where the company maintains a 49% ownership position, encompass facilities including Alborz, Bear, and Chief Mountain throughout West Texas. These locations collectively produced approximately 45 BTC throughout May.

The Texas-based Alborz operation experienced service interruptions during May due to wildfire-related incidents in the region. Company leadership indicated the facility should resume complete operations by mid-June.

Hash-to-Heat Expansion

On May 19, Canaan successfully secured a competitive contract to provide approximately 8 MW of hash-to-heat hydro-cooled mining infrastructure to a district heating system in the Nordic region. This agreement expands upon a previous 2 MW installation that currently provides heated water for community residential use.

In addition to the Nordic initiative, Canaan manages 12 operational mining ventures worldwide, with presence across the Americas, Ethiopia, Middle Eastern territories, Malaysia, and Canada. Combined deployed computing capacity across these facilities measured 14.96 EH/s as of May 31.

Tether Partnership Extended

These components are engineered for advanced immersion-cooled mining and computational infrastructure currently being installed throughout South American markets.
