Bit Origin Ltd Announces Monthly Production and Operation Update for November 2022

New York, Dec. 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bit Origin Ltd (NASDAQ: BTOG) (“Bit Origin” or the “Company”), an emerging growth company engaged in the crypto mining business with diversified expansion strategies, today provided its monthly production and operation update for November 2022.

“Our production in November 2022 was negatively affected by the strong volatility of the bitcoin price and high energy costs. As a result, we temporarily scaled down our operations to cut down costs. We have also reached a strategic agreement with Your Choice 4 CA, Inc., the host in our Indiana site to share electricity expense, which is expected to significantly increase our profit margin. We continue adjusting our short-term strategy to optimize our operating efficiency in the current dynamic market conditions.” said Mr. Lucas Wang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
