Q2 was a Challenging Quarter
Canaan has reported that despite generating strong profits, it has faced many challenges in the second quarter of 2022.
The major challenge was the price of Bitcoin (BTC) which ended up plummeting starting in 2022. Starting from January to June, the trading price of Bitcoin ended up falling to $20,000.
This was a strong challenge for their company because as the price of Bitcoin fell, many Bitcoin miners found that mining Bitcoin offered no profits at all.
As a result, the Bitcoin miners started to sell their mining rigs and mining centers resulting in a major sell-off. As there was a lot of second-hand mining equipment on the mark, it was difficult for them to sell their freshly manufactured equipment.
Still, the company dealt with the situation very smartly and professionally. They have manufactured mining equipment that has improved their power supply efficiency on a large scale.
Canaan’s Goal
Canaan’s CEO, Zhang revealed that its mission is not to stay confined in China. Instead, they want to expand their business and their reach throughout the world.
They are aiming to increase their global presence and for this purpose, they are aiming to open up their headquarters in Singapore.
The company is also responsible for mining Bitcoin and so far, it has increased its mining capability with increased power supply.
The company has revealed that by the end of June, they had mined a total of 346.84 Bitcoin translating to $8.1 million.
