Bitfarms' Bitcoin Slide Undercuts Liquidity -- Market Talk

Dow Jones02-05

1203 ET - Bitfarms' liquidity is exposed to the falling price of bitcoin. The company is in the midst of transforming from a bitcoin miner to an energy infrastructure company, but mining still remains a core part of the business. In its 3Q the company mined 520 bitcoin, and sold off 185, which propped liquidity of cash $637 million with $177 million in unencumbered bitcoin. However, the price of bitcoin has been rapidly declining, falling sharply to around $73,500 from its peaks over $120,000 in 2025. The drop in prices has compressed margins, as mining economics work against producers in a downturn when network difficulty continues to rise, driving energy and computing costs up while the value of mined coins declines. Shares are down 13% to C$2.76. (adriano.marchese@wsj.com)
