TeraWulf, the world’s sixth-largest Bitcoin mining company, is set to launch a new Bitcoin mining facility by the end of September, while also exploring a significant partnership with a company from the Magnificent Seven.
Launching New Mining Facility
The new Bitcoin (BTC) mining facility, named WULF Den, is scheduled to go live in early September, according to Nazar Khan, TeraWulf’s co-founder and Chief Operating Officer. In an exclusive interview with Cointelegraph, Khan stated:
“Our WULF Den facility is a 2-megawatt installation set to become operational next month. It features a liquid cooling design. What allowed us to fast-track the timeline was the fact that we were building it within an existing structure.”
The launch of WULF Den will be followed by the rollout of TeraWulf’s 20-megawatt facility, expected to go live before the end of 2024.
Potential Partnership with Magnificent Seven?
TeraWulf is “actively engaged” with some of the biggest names in the tech industry, including members of the Magnificent Seven—a term referring to the top-performing tech stocks: Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Tesla.
When asked about a possible partnership, Khan explained that discussions are not limited to just the companies within the Magnificent Seven but extend to the broader tech sector. He elaborated:
“Our goal is to find a customer and partner we want to grow with at the site… For a customer to credibly acquire 100 MW or 200 MW of capacity, it requires a very significant amount of capital.”
Potential partners could include data centers or large artificial intelligence (AI) firms looking to leverage TeraWulf’s excess computing power.
TeraWulf: The Most Profitable Bitcoin Miner by Earnings Per Share
On average, TeraWulf spends approximately $40,000 in production costs to mine a single Bitcoin. This positions TeraWulf as one of the most profitable Bitcoin miners in terms of earnings per share, according to Khan:
“We believe our job is to produce Bitcoin at the lowest possible price, capture a margin, and then move forward in the second quarter. Our fully loaded production costs, including every expense in the company, are around $40,000 per Bitcoin.”
Khan added that TeraWulf sells Bitcoin daily due to the profitability of this margin.
This approach contrasts with the strategy of Marathon Digital Holdings, the world’s largest Bitcoin miner, which has adopted a “full hodl” strategy—crypto slang for “hold on for dear life.”
Marathon raised $250 million in August with the goal of purchasing more Bitcoin, acquiring $100 million in BTC in July with the aim of turning it into a strategic asset.
Conclusion
As TeraWulf continues to expand its operations with the launch of new facilities and potential partnerships with major tech companies, the company is positioning itself as a leader in the Bitcoin mining industry. With a focus on profitability and strategic growth, TeraWulf is set to play a significant role in the future of cryptocurrency mining.
