  • Gross mining margin widened to $31 million from $2.6 million.
  • Hive also reported holding 25,000 ETH and 1,030 BTC.

  • During the quarter, Hive also expanded and upgraded mining equipment, which was partially funded by an $100 million funding program and partially through the sale of ether.
