While Riot’s electrical equipment manufacturing business will continue to run under the ESS Metron brand to support its long-standing customer base, Whinstone U.S. and Riot will brand jointly under Riot Platforms, Inc.
Riot Platforms CEO Jason Les said in a statement:
“Our successful acquisitions of Whinstone U.S., which developed and operated North America’s largest dedicated Bitcoin mining data center facility, and ESS Metron, which enhanced our electrical component engineering and supply chain capabilities, have formed the foundation on which our teams have built, and will continue to develop, business platforms for further growth. The scope and scale of our businesses continues to expand, and this rebranding better reflects our position as strategic allocators of capital to broaden the scope of our Bitcoin-focused operations.”
One of the few mining companies, Riot Platforms, has been able to lower energy costs and counteract market headwinds by entering into power purchase agreements that allow it to sell the electricity it has already purchased at a profit back to the grid.
Miners have suffered from declining profitability over the past year, and this summer, Stronghold Digital Mining even changed the focus of its operations to selling power from mining. Core Scientific is also having financial problems as the bankruptcy process is underway.
