Block reward miner Hive Digital (TSXV:HIVE) is shifting operations from Canada to the U.S. in anticipation of an enabling business climate under the Donald Trump administration.

區塊獎勵礦工 Hive Digital (TSXV:HIVE) 正在將業務從加拿大轉移到美國，以期在唐納德·川普政府的領導下創造有利的商業環境。

Hive announced on December 31 that it would relocate from Vancouver, Canada, to San Antonio, Texas, to capitalize on the opportunities the U.S. market offers.

Hive 於 12 月 31 日宣布，將從加拿大溫哥華搬遷至德克薩斯州聖安東尼奧，以抓住美國市場提供的機會。

Texas has become the U.S. mining hub, with Hive’s peers, including MARA Holdings (NASDAQ:MARA), Riot Platforms (NASDAQ:RIOT), Bitdeer (NASDAQ:BTDR), Cipher Mining (NASDAQ:CIFR), and more operating in the state.

德州已成為美國採礦中心，Hive 的同行包括MARA Holdings（納斯達克股票代碼：MARA）、Riot Platforms（納斯達克股票代碼：RIOT）、Bitdeer（納斯達克股票代碼： BTDR）、Cipher Mining（納斯達克股票代碼：CIFR）等在該州營運的公司。

Texas’ grid operator, ERCOT, has struck deals with miners to pay them for turning off their rigs during peak demand, although legislators are seeking to put an end to these deals.

德州電網營運商 ERCOT 已與礦工達成協議，向他們支付在需求高峰期間關閉鑽孔機的費用，儘管立法者正在尋求終止這些交易。

Trump’s election was a massive factor in Hive’s decision, the miner revealed. The Republican president-elect pledged to reverse ‘anti-crypto’ policies during his campaigns and make the U.S. the mining capital. He has also been appointing pro-digital currency leaders to some key positions, although some come with intricate ties to the companies they are meant to police.

這位礦工透露，川普的當選是 Hive 做出決定的重要因素。這位共和黨候任總統承諾在競選期間扭轉「反加密」政策，讓美國成為礦業之都。他還任命了支持數位貨幣的領導人擔任一些關鍵職位，儘管其中一些領導人與他們要監管的公司有著複雜的聯繫。

“President-elect Trump has stated, that under his leadership, America would become a safer and more attractive place for Bitcoin miners by implementing policies to ensure the U.S. has the cheapest energy globally, fostering innovation, and creating a regulatory environment that supports cryptocurrency operations,” Hive stated.

「當選總統川普表示，在他的領導下，美國將透過實施政策確保美國擁有全球最便宜的能源、促進創新並創建支持加密貨幣運營的監管環境，從而成為對比特幣礦工來說更安全、更有吸引力的地方，」蜂巢說。

Hive also believes that operating from the U.S. will give it access to deeper and more robust capital markets.

Hive 也相信，在美國開展業務將使其能夠進入更深、更強勁的資本市場。

“The depth and breadth of U.S. capital markets are unparalleled and key to our growth strategy. The U.S. market, with its $40 trillion capitalization and daily trading volumes of $500 billion, offers HIVE the liquidity, visibility, and valuation opportunities we need to scale,” commented CEO Frank Holmes.

「美國資本市場的深度和廣度是無與倫比的，也是我們成長策略的關鍵。美國市場擁有 40 兆美元的資本和 5,000 億美元的日交易量，為 HIVE 提供了我們需要擴大規模的流動性、可見性和估值機會。

The company will also transition to the U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (US GAAP), starting in Q1 next year, to cater to U.S. investors. This, CFO Darcy Daubaras believes, aligns with the firm’s “strategic goals of operational efficiency, sustainability, and expanding our market presence. These moves enhance our financial transparency and position us for long-term success in the global market.”

該公司還將從明年第一季開始過渡到美國公認會計原則（US GAAP），以滿足美國投資者的需求。財務長 Darcy Daubaras 認為，這符合公司的「營運效率、永續性和擴大市場份額的策略目標」。這些舉措提高了我們的財務透明度，並使我們能夠在全球市場上取得長期成功。

Separately, Hive announced that it increased its operational hash rate by nearly 50% from 4.08 exahashes per second (EH/s) to 6 EH/s. It achieved this milestone by enhancing its efficiency, which it unlocked by switching to Canaan Inc.’s Avalon miners. It also procured electricity in Sweden at two cents per kilowatt-hour. In an interview, Holmes revealed that it did this by locking in long-term contracts when the power prices dropped in the hotter months of the summer.

另外，Hive 宣布其運行哈希率從每秒 4.08 exahashes (EH/s) 提高了近 50% 至 6 EH/s。它透過提高效率實現了這一里程碑，並透過改用 Canaan Inc. 的 Avalon 礦機來實現這一目標。它還以每千瓦時兩美分的價格在瑞典採購電力。 Holmes 在接受採訪時透露，它是透過在夏季最熱月份電價下跌時鎖定長期合約來做到這一點的。

Following the announcement, Hive shares shot up 9% on Thursday to reverse a three-week downtrend that chipped off nearly 25% from the miner’s stock price despite the broader market bull rally.

消息公佈後，Hive 股價週四上漲 9%，扭轉了連續三週的下跌趨勢，儘管市場整體多頭上漲，但該公司股價仍下跌了近 25%。

Block reward mining had a checkered year in 2024, with some like Compass Mining and MARA expanding operations, while others like Foundry laid staff off. On the regulatory front, some states in the U.S. pushed enabling regulations for miners, while elsewhere, authorities clamped down on the energy-guzzling sector, blaming it for power shortages.

區塊獎勵挖礦在 2024 年經歷了波折的一年，Compass Mining 和 MARA 等一些公司擴大了業務，而 Foundry 等其他公司則裁員。在監管方面，美國一些州推行了針對礦商的有利法規，而在其他地方，當局則對這個高耗能產業進行打壓，將其歸咎於電力短缺。
