LM Funding America has announced that it will increase its mining capabilities with the help of Core Scientific.
According to a press release on April 12, Core Scientific will provide LM Funding with an additional 900 mining machines, bringing the total number of machines to 3,900.
The expanded contract will add 400 petahashes of mining capacity to LM Funding’s network.

Although Core Scientific filed for bankruptcy in December 2022 with more than $1 billion in liabilities, the company continues to operate.
