Bitcoin mining stock Bitfarms updates its ‘HODL Strategy’

Bitcoin mining company Bitfarms Ltd. (NASDAQ: BITF) is changing its HODLing as it looks to “improve liquidity and strengthen its balance sheet.”

The Toronto-based miner announced this via a press release on Tuesday.

Bitfarms updates HODLing strategy

The change in strategy has seen the company sell nearly half of its BTC holdings over the past week, with 3,000 bitcoins sold for roughly $62 million in that time. Out of that amount, $28 million went towards rebalancing its $66 million BTC-backed loan with Galaxy Digital.  The loan facility has reduced to $38 million, the firm said in the press release.

Despite no longer HODLing 100% of its mined BTC, Bitfarms says it remains bullish. Jeff Lucas, the firm’s CFO noted this in a tweet.

Bitfarms holds 3,349 BTC 

Bitfarms revealed that it held $42 million in cash and 3,349 BTC worth about $67 million as of Monday, 20 June, 2022. The company’s 14 BTC daily production adds to the liquidity.

The firm’s corporate liquidity is also helped by the $37 million equipment financing deal with NYDIG, which it says was closed last week. In total, Bitfarms liquidity currently stands around $100 million.
