It definitely is a hidden gem. I acquired a huge number of the warrants. When cryptocurrency is priced like this, though, people appear indifferent, yet when it is at all-time highs, everyone wants to talk about and invest in it. though, now is the period when I am stocking up.
Why are we down today? Bitcoin is zooming

1 Assumes network hash rate of 343 EH/s and 927 bitcoins mined per day
Cipher is a US-based Bitcoin mining company. It’s been relatively quiet on the newswires this month. But one thing that has come to light and could be a source of speculation is news of its upcoming earnings. Cipher plans to release its first quarter 2023 results on May 9th.
Starting to look like I am going to be wrong. Probably will drop below $2. Hopefully the next update will contain news that will reverse the downward trend.
Gotcha. It's weird - Needham & Company LLC raised their target on CIFR to $4.00 yesterday and on Stocktwits people were referring to this as a 'downgrade' and saying that's why we dipped. It didn't make sense to me.
We have a nice start to the day. I think we will see $4 before we ever see $2 again.
Could be manipulation or some profit taking after the recent run up but you also have people like Peter Schiff and Warren Buffett recently saying the current Bitcoin run is going to be short lived. They may be right but it continues to climb.

Cipher Mining Provides Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Business Update
March 14 2023 - 07:00AM
GlobeNewswire Inc.
https://ih.advfn.com/stock-market/NASDAQ/cipher-mining-CIFR/stock-news/90497353/cipher-mining-provides-fourth-quarter-and-full-yea
Cipher Mining Inc. (NASDAQ: CIFR) (“Cipher” or the “Company”), a leading developer and operator of bitcoin mining data centers, today announced results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2022, with an update on its operations and deployment strategy.
“We are pleased to announce financial results that demonstrate our resilient position as a low-cost producer of bitcoin, while we continue our steady march toward the completion of our initial data centers,” said Tyler Page, CEO of Cipher. “As always, our focus is on prudent growth through the cycle, which we can accomplish given the strength of our balance sheet and the significant ramp up at our Odessa facility. As we complete our initial build out at Odessa, we will increase our focus on the tremendous organic growth opportunities we have across our sites, as well as continue to refine our pipeline of potential new projects and new opportunities to drive shareholder value.”
Ed Farrell, CFO of Cipher Mining, said, “We commenced producing revenues in the fourth quarter of 2022 with the energization of our Odessa data center. With the ramp up of Odessa in 2023, we look forward to providing the market with greater detail on our operations, which we believe will illuminate our best-in-class unit economics.”
Finance and Operations Updates
Across four initial data centers, Cipher remains on track to deploy up to ~5.7 EH/s by the end of Q1 2023, with a highly efficient machine fleet, averaging ~31.4 J/TH, purchased at an average price of ~$30.53/TH/s
The weighted average power price at the Company’s current sites is ~2.7 c/kWh
~515 and ~377 bitcoin mined in fiscal year 2022 and the fourth quarter of 2022, respectively
Cipher produced full year 2022 GAAP diluted net loss of $0.16 per share and non-GAAP diluted net loss of $0.26 per share
Recent Developments
Cipher began reporting unaudited monthly production and operations updates in December 2022.
In January 2023, Cipher energized 13,300 new Bitmain and MicroBT miners, representing an increase in hash rate of ~1.4 EH/s and a ~48% increase relative to the previous month. With the increase in hash rate, Cipher produced ~343 bitcoin in January, representing a ~52% increase in production relative to the previous month. At month-end, Cipher reported over 3.3 EH/s of self-mining operations at the Odessa facility and ~4.3 EH/s of self-mining operations across all the sites.
In February 2023, Cipher energized an additional 7,710 new Bitmain and MicroBT miners, representing an increase in hash rate of ~0.9 EH/s and a ~19% increase relative to the previous month. With the increase in hash rate, Cipher produced ~398 bitcoin in February, representing a ~16% increase in production relative to the previous month. At month-end, Cipher reported over 4.2 EH/s of self-mining operations at the Odessa facility and ~5.2 EH/s of self-mining operations across all the sites.
Earnings will be released before the market opens Tuesday, March 14. Analysts are expecting a $.07 loss. I think it is more likely they report positive earnings with the returns from the start up of Odessa.
Mining 15.8 Bitcoin per day.
And they continue to add while increasing their Bitcoin holdings and not taking on debt. Very impressive. Waiting for the earnings announcement to see just what their cost per coin to mine is. Possibly under $5000 per coin due to really good energy contracts. This stock is way undervalued.

I think this is starting to get some attention.
Now we get to watch politicians strangle themselves over blockchain tech. Will mining companies earn the right to exist? Or must they win the favor of the politicians who win the fight to hold the purse strings?

Someone put me on this ticker a few days ago. They have a new facility in Texas with a 10yr contract for power for 2.5cents/kWh. I just need to do more research to see how big this is. I am only messaging from hearsay but apparently there is something to it.
Today's "Amended 13g/a" is a mix of voting rights from groups who own percentages of shares. News from days ago was Cipher appearing at Needham conference on Jan 14, or some such thing.
With SP now breaking $4, the FUD reaches new depths. I read Bitfury was making new, faster software, but no doubt this will be a software race by all to outpace competition.
I just want Cipher to show some awareness that their SP has reached beyond crisis point. So far they are blank stubs of management.
Yesterday's hearing before US house of reps met with bitcoin related CEOs. Bitfury was one of the groups in the room.
Bitfury remains involved, fingering the wind to see which way the wind blows.
Cipher 10-Q filed today. $320mm in assets and almost debt free. No revenues yet. They operate in the Bitcoin mining ecosystem with plans to develop and grow a cryptocurrency mining business, specializing in Bitcoin. As a stand-alone, U.S.-based cryptocurrency mining business, the Company plans to begin its initial buildout phase with a set-up of cryptocurrency mining facilities (or sites) in at least four cities in the United States (three in Texas and one in Ohio).
Right. Thanks for the reminder. I still think they're resting on laurals with their pants down. No movement, no statements and no plans for us to ponder. Does it mean they have no thoughts at all?
This is no longer a spac.
This group seems to have been caught with their pants down. I had thought more of Bitfury which is why I bought in. Perhaps they've been out of the game too long, resting on their laurels, forgetting how to play the real game of competition. Either they get their act together or they're gonna get sued. Can spacs be sued?
CIFR bitcoin beast....wowza
CIFR looks like $8 break imminent here
