The milestone is a result of the miner’s dedication and unwavering focus on efficiency and responsibility. CleanSpark has seen a 236% year-over-year increase in its BTC holdings. “Every bitcoin in our treasury has been mined in the United States, supported by American energy and jobs—underscoring our dedication to sustainable growth and innovation in the global bitcoin ecosystem,” the CleanSpark chief executive added. CleanSpark mined its first BTC in December 2021. Growth has come amid diversification of the company’s mining portfolio, with acquisitions and other expansion efforts key to this. The company’s acquisition of GRIID Infrastructure and seven new facilities in Knoxville , Tennessee, align with this trajectory. Bitcoin’s recent price gains, with the cryptocurrency hitting all-time highs above $108,000, have also boosted the market for miners. As of 10:54 ET on Jan. 9, 2025, BTC was trading around $94,287.
