Sysorex Completes the Purchase of 1,344 Nvidia V100 Class Cryptocurrency Mining Processors from … | news
HERNDON, Va., July 29, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Sysorex, Inc. (“Company”) (OTCQB: SYSX), a data center owner and operator and the leading US-based, publicly traded Ethereum mining company and the Ethereum- Blockchain technology company, today announced the purchase of 1,344 Nvidia CMP V100-class GPUs (“GPUs”) from CoreWeave, Inc. (“CoreWeave”). With the GPUs contributing around 125 gigahash of computing power or mining capacity, Sysorex now has the ability to aggregate around 20% more Ether (ETH), the cryptocurrency that powers the Ethereum blockchain. The company also announced its plans to keep the dismantled ETH in the treasury, which may further add to its balance sheet.
On April 1, 2021, Sysorex and CoreWeave executed a purchase order for USD 2,250,000 to buy and sell the GPUs on a lease-to-buy basis, with all income in the form of ETH generated from the GPUs, dismantled and sold, credited to the due balance of the order until full repayment has been made. From April 1 to July 8, 2021, the 1,344 GPUs mined 421,494 ETH, generating approximately $ 1,090,000 (unaudited) in revenue that was credited to the order, in addition to a $ 50,000 down payment made on or about April was paid in January 2021. Last week, Sysorex paid CoreWeave the balance of the order, approximately $ 1,110,000.
“Fulfilling the CoreWeave order is an important achievement that we believe will add shareholder value as it coincides with our move from selling ETH to fund business while executing our current strategy of 100% of the ETH being mined aggregate into our treasury wallet, which fits into our balance sheet immediately, and the value of the retained ETH can also increase over time, ”said Wayne Wasserberg, CEO of Sysorex. “With our around 10,000 GPUs, which are now fully paid for by Sysorex and owned by Sysorex, we are collecting all of the mined Ethereum so that Sysorex, when the Ethereum blockchain goes from mining / proof-of-work to proof-of -Stake / Ethereum 2.0 moves, positioned as leading US stakeholder. With these and other GPUs we put online in the second quarter of this year, our mining capacity has increased by about 100% from the first quarter of 2021 to the second quarter of this year. We are proud of this achievement and remain focused on the path ahead as we continue to strengthen our position as the leading US Ethereum company. I look forward to speaking to our shareholders on our conference call on August 9, 2021 as we have so much more to share. “
