- “Today the real output, or revenue, coming from self-mining or joint-mining, are coming from Kazakhstan at the moment, and soon you’ll see other markets as well,” Lu said, adding that the U.S. is in the pipeline for both sales and mining.
- In January, Canaan said it had deployed over 10,000 mining machines in Kazakhstan.
- “Mining in Kazakhstan is doing well and moving faster, and we expect big growth as well,” Lu said.
- Despite logistical issues and supply chain disruptions from the pandemic, Canaan booked 236.7% year-on-year revenue growth in the first quarter of this year, and its net income expanded to 441.6 million yuan (US$65.5 million) from 1.2 million yuan (US$177,875) in the same period last year, according to its earnings report.
- In May, the Securities and Exchange Commission put Nasdaq-listed Canaan on a pre-delisting list amid the U.S.-China dispute over audit working papers, and the company said it would “continue to comply with applicable laws and regulations in both China and the U.S.”
