Reading Time: 4 minutes

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – December 3, 2021) – HIVE Blockchain Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: HBF) (the “Company” or “HIVE”) is pleased to announce the production figures from the Company’s global Bitcoin and Ethereum mining operations for the month of November 2021, with a BTC HODL balance of 1,584 Bitcoin as of today.

November 2021 Production Figures

Following a record Q2 2022 earnings report (period end September 30, 2021), HIVE is pleased to announce its November 2021 production figures. The Company notes it currently has:

  • 218 BTC Produced
  • $13.2M USD Bitcoin mining revenue
  • 1.31 ExaHash of Bitcoin mining capacity
  • 2,334 ETH Produced
  • $10.4M USD Ethereum mining revenue
  • 4.36 TeraHash of Ethereum mining capacity
  • $23.6M USD Total Revenue

Frank Holmes, Executive Chairman of HIVE, stated, “We are very pleased to report HIVE has continued its strong momentum following our record-breaking October production figures; this trend is continued in our November production where HIVE is again generating over $280M USD in annual revenue on a run-rate basis using November figures, or approximately $350M CAD.”

Aydin Kilic, President & COO of HIVE, noted, “We would like the investing public and crypto enthusiasts to understand the financial relationship between BTC and ETH mining. For example, in the month of November, 1,000 GH/s of ETH mining was equivalent if measured in daily revenue from the value of coins produced to approximately 228 PH/s of Bitcoin mining.” The Company believes it’s unique position of having a large Bitcoin and Ethereum mining footprint provides investors a unique value proposition. Mr Kilic continued, “Similarly, where one can equate hashrate on a revenue basis between BTC and ETH, you can also equate the value of the coins on a daily basis, as such on a daily basis the 2,334 ETH that HIVE produced during the month of November is approximately equal in value to producing a monthly total of 171 BTC. This is in addition to the 218 BTC produced from our Bitcoin mining operations.”

The Company’s total Bitcoin equivalent production in November 2021 was:

  • 389 BTC Equivalent Produced
  • 13 Bitcoin Equivalent produced per day on average
  • 2.3 ExaHash of BTC Equivalent Hashrate (BTC hashrate plus equivalent ETH Hashrate)

Network Mining Difficulty

The Bitcoin network difficulty increased as much as 5% and similarly the Ethereum network difficulty increased approximately 8% during the month of November. These increases in difficulty are factors in the decrease in BTC and ETH produced in November compared to the previous month.

Stripe Unveils Unbundled Payments Strategy in Fintech Pivot

Published

on

 

Stripe has announced a significant shift in its strategy by unbundling its payments service from its broader suite of financial offerings.

Despite maintaining its position as the largest privately held firm in the industry, boasting a valuation of approximately USD 65 billion and processing a substantial USD 1 trillion in payment volume in the previous year, Stripe is responding to the rapidly evolving fintech landscape and escalating competition by reassessing its approach.

The decision to detach its payments service from its suite of financial offerings represents a departure from Stripe’s previous strategy, where access to additional services was tied to the use of its payment solutions. In conjunction with this change, the company has introduced several new Embedded Finance features and a fresh selection of AI tools.

These updates were unveiled at Sessions, Stripe’s developer conference in San Francisco, where the company introduced over 50 new features as part of its platform enhancements, totaling over 250 announcements for the year. While many of these updates represent incremental improvements to existing products, they collectively signify Stripe’s commitment to aligning closely with the needs of innovative businesses worldwide and enhancing the GDP of the internet.

Stripe aims to leverage its scale to navigate the complex payments landscape and harness AI for growth while also making its platform more modular to accommodate diverse user requirements.

The decision to separate payments from its suite of services addresses a significant barrier for potential customers, granting them access to specific tools without committing to Stripe’s entire ecosystem. This signifies a shift in Stripe’s approach, placing greater emphasis on flexibility over a one-size-fits-all model.

While Stripe officials acknowledged user demand for an open ecosystem, they cited technical challenges in integrating legacy services as a reason for the delay in implementing this change. Furthermore, the move aligns with broader market trends, with companies like Stripe adopting a platform approach to payment services. However, the market remains fragmented, offering customers numerous alternatives and driving increased demand for flexible solutions.

Notable updates include the integration of AI capabilities into checkout and fraud detection tools, as well as enhancements to Stripe’s Embedded Finance offerings and usage-based billing options. These updates are aimed at addressing evolving customer needs and maintaining Stripe’s competitiveness in the fintech landscape.
