Digihost (Nasdaq: DGHI; TSXV: DGHI) said the arrangement introduces 4,640 Bitmain-brand S19 XPs to Digihost’s fleet, poised to substantially boost its bitcoin mining efficacy before the forthcoming Bitcoin network halving event. Pursuant to the agreement’s stipulations, Digihost will welcome a $1.8 million deposit and the avant-garde miners, forecasting a rise in its hashrate to 2.4 EH/s.
