CleanSpark cements its position as a top five bitcoin miner as it triples its hashrate

CleanSpark Inc (NASDAQ:CLSK) executive chairman Matthew Schultz tells Proactive's Stephen Gunnion that the company is now a top five bitcoin miner after it exceeded a hashrate of three exahashes.

Schultz said its hashrate has tripled in less than a year after the company took advantage of opportunities in the market to expand its facilities and acquire more rigs.

The latest hashrate doesn't reflect the acquisition this month of a bitcoin mining facility in Washington, Georgia – its third in the state – that is expected to add 1.1 exahashes per second (EH/s) to the company's hashrate once fully operational, Schultz added.
