LAS VEGAS, Feb. 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gryphon Digital Mining, Inc. ("Gryphon" or the "Company"), is proud to announce its Nasdaq debut under the ticker symbol "GRYP" following its merger with Akerna Corp. Gryphon's mission is to create a leading carbon-negative bitcoin miner and build upon its industry leading operational performance and pedigreed management team.
Gryphon joins Nasdaq with a total attributable hashrate of up to 1.3 exahash per second ("EH/s") following the purchase of newer generation S19K Pro machines. In 2023, Gryphon produced 788 bitcoin-equivalent coins. The Company is also an established leader in bitcoin efficiency, consistently ranking among the top three in bitcoin efficiency rankings relative to publicly disclosing peers and placing at or tied for first in nine of the 12 months of 2023.
In 2024, Gryphon expects to conduct its bitcoin mining operations using 100% hydro power as verified by Energy Web, an independent, third-party auditor of carbon emissions. Gryphon was one of the original recipients of the "Green Proofs for Bitcoin" certification, which helps Bitcoin miners measure and manage their energy footprint to help accelerate decarbonization. Moreover, Gryphon seeks to lead the way through a carbon negative strategy as the Company owns carbon offset credits that may be used against its non-core Scope 3 emissions.
"We are thrilled to begin trading on the Nasdaq and to bring our history of operational performance to the market," noted Rob Chang, CEO, President, and Director of Gryphon. "Combined with our carbon negative strategy, we believe we are bringing a bitcoin miner to the market that has blue chip execution with an ESG focus. Now that Gryphon is listed on the Nasdaq, we look forward to the opportunity to aggressively expand the company organically through machine purchases and through M&A opportunities while maintaining our tradition of capital efficient decision making."
