CleanSpark, a U.S.-based bitcoin mining firm, has secured an additional $100 million in financing through an expanded Bitcoin-backed credit line with Coinbase Prime, the institutional arm of crypto exchange Coinbase. The announcement came Monday as the company outlined plans to channel the funding into scaling operations and boosting infrastructure.
According to CleanSpark, the capital will support three strategic areas: expanding its energy infrastructure, increasing bitcoin mining capacity, and developing high-performance computing capabilities at select data centers.
“Delivering accretive growth using non-dilutive financing is at the core of CleanSpark’s capital strategy,” said Gary Vecchiarelli, the company’s chief financial officer and president.
Strengthening Growth with Coinbase Prime Partnership
CEO Matt Schultz highlighted the expanded relationship with Coinbase Prime as a key step toward both accelerating mining growth and exploring new use cases for CleanSpark’s facilities.
“We are proud to expand our relationship with Coinbase Prime as we continue to add megawatts to our portfolio and take steps toward alternative use cases for some of our data centers,” Schultz said.
CleanSpark operates multiple data centers across the U.S., strategically located in regions with competitive electricity pricing. The company reported reaching 50 EH/s of operational hashrate in June and has grown its bitcoin treasury to over $1 billion in value as of the same period.
