Bit Digital’s Q3 revenue jumps 96% amid HPC strength

Bit Digital posted nearly $23 million in Q3 revenue, a 96% increase year-over-year, driven by strong growth in its high-performance computing business.

Bitcoin (BTC) mining firm Bit Digital said in a Q3 earnings report that its revenue for the quarter was $22.7 million, marking a 96% increase year-over-year following a strong performance in the firm’s recently launched high-performance computing business.

Per a Nov. 18 press release, Bit Digital’s HPC business generated $12.2 million in revenue, up from zero in Q3 2023. Despite a decline in Bitcoin mining revenue, which fell 11% YoY to $10.1 million, the firm’s total revenue surged as its HPC operations gained traction. The firm’s management said the maturation of HPC business was a “defining theme this quarter” as Bit Digital expanded its GPU cloud client base with the addition of Boosteroid and strengthened its team with “critical hires.”
