Management Commentary

“The increase in our hash rate this month coupled with a temporary spike in transaction fees due to the emergence of Ordinals on the blockchain more than offset May’s increase in network difficulty, enabling the Company to deliver a 35% month-over-month increase in bitcoin produced,” stated Kerri Langlais, Chief Strategy Officer of TeraWulf. “Additionally, with a realized average cost of power of less than $0.03 per kilowatt hour and average availability in excess of 98% in May, we steadily increased profit margins month over month despite challenging market conditions,” added Langlais.

“From an operational perspective, we are completing the miner installation in Building 2 at Lake Mariner, which will add another 50 MW of self-mining capacity and bring the Company’s total operational mining capacity to 160 MW and 5.5 EH/s,” continued Langlais. “Our demonstrated execution capabilities and substantial organic growth opportunities at our two sites reflect the strength of TeraWulf’s vertically integrated model and strategy to be the leading sustainable, low-cost Bitcoin miner in the sector.”

Production and Operations Update

As of May 31, 2023, the Company had an operational miner fleet of approximately 36,000 of the latest generation miners, comprised of 20,000 miners at its wholly owned Lake Mariner facility in New York (5,000 of which are hosted) and 16,000 self-miners at the nuclear-powered Nautilus facility in Pennsylvania.

TeraWulf is in the final stages of bringing all mining capacity online at Lake Mariner, which will increase Lake Mariner’s operational capacity to over 110 MW in the coming weeks. Combined, the Company expects to have a total operational capacity of 50,000 miners (5.5 EH/s) in Q2 2023, representing approximately 160 MW of power demand.

Conferences and Events

TeraWulf plans to attend the following upcoming events:

  • June 6-8, LD Micro Main Event Invitational XIII Conference, Los Angeles

  • June 14-15, Cantor Fitzgerald Technology Conference, New York
