Hive Blockchain Technologies Ltd: HIVE Blockchain Expands Bitcoin Mining Capacity by 36% With Purchase of 6,000 Next Generation Miners to Increase Future Operations to 1,673 PH/s

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 23, 2021 / HIVE Blockchain Technologies Ltd. (TSX.V:HIVE) (OTCQX:HVBTF) (FSE:-HBF) (the "Company" or "HIVE") is excited to announce that it has made a large step towards its updated 2021 ASIC capacity goal of 2,000 Petahash per second (PH/s) with the purchase of 6,000 next generation miners with an aggregate operating hash power of 444 PH/s.

New Miners

With the addition of these 6,000 next generation miners, HIVE's aggregate operating hash rate from Bitcoin mining will increase to an estimated 1.673 Exahash per second (EH/s) or 1,673 PH/s by the end of 2021.

Based on the order that has been placed, this new equipment is expected to be received and in operation in the next 6 months, delivered in 2 tranches, with 3,000 miners in each of July, and August 2021.

This expansion will be for our operations in Canada and Iceland and are crucial key steps to take us over 2,000 PH/s of Bitcoin mining capacity using green energy by the end of 2021.

As we have mentioned before, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact logistics and the supply of miners from Asia. Today's announcement is part of our continuing strategy to increase our bitcoin mining capacity. HIVE intends to continue utilizing cash flow to make opportunistic investments in ASIC and GPU next generation mining equipment that can provide positive gross mining margins.

Chinese New Year is over and we are now expecting an increase in shipments of new GPU's with 8 gigabyte memory cards to accelerate, which should improve our Ethereum production.

Our liquidity remains healthy with cash and coins valued over USD $65 million.

Coin Inventory (HODL)

Since the beginning of the calendar year HIVE has been a Holder of all of mined Bitcoin and Ethereum coins and has been banking it into inventory as a current strategy, which we feel will benefit our shareholders.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in such forward-looking information include, but are not limited to, the newly purchased 6,000 next generation miners may not be delivered or operation in the timeframe currently anticipated, or may not have a positive impact on the Company's profitability; the Company may not achieve an aggregate operating hash power of 2,000 PH/s in the timeframe currently anticipated, or at all; continued effects of the COVID-19 pandemic may have a material adverse effect on the Company's performance as supply chains are disrupted and prevent the Company from operating its assets; a decrease in cryptocurrency pricing, volume of transaction activity or generally, the profitability of cryptocurrency mining; further improvements to profitability and efficiency may not be realized; the digital currency market; the Company's ability to successfully mine digital currency; the Company may not be able to profitably liquidate its current digital currency inventory, or at all; a decline in digital currency prices may have a significant negative impact on the Company's operations; the volatility of digital currency prices; and other related risks as more fully set out in the Filing Statement of the Company and other documents disclosed under the Company's filings at www.sedar.com.
