CleanSpark mined 593 BTC in August, pushing its total treasury to 13,703 BTC. BTC price remained volatile as the firm sold 229 BTC at spot prices and 350 BTC via call options in July, averaging $66,133 per coin. Mining revenue for Q3 2026 fell 30.5% to $138 million, with a net loss of $239.8 million.

CleanSpark mined 593 Bitcoin in August, a slight uptick from the 586 BTC it produced in July, bringing the company’s total treasury holdings to 13,703 BTC as of August 31.

Through the end of July, the company had already mined 4,310 BTC for calendar year 2026, and the August haul pushes that total north of 4,900 BTC for the year.

Treasury strategy: hold, sell selectively, write calls

The company retains the bulk of what it mines but isn’t dogmatic about it. In July, it sold 229 BTC at spot prices and another 350 BTC through exercised call options. That blended approach yielded an average realized price of $66,133 per Bitcoin, including option premiums.

The treasury dipped from 13,931 BTC at the end of July to 13,703 BTC at the end of August, a net reduction of 228 BTC.

As of June 30, the company reported a cash position of $202.6 million.

Hashrate and operational footprint

CleanSpark operates at a peak hashrate of 50 EH/s, with an average operational output of 38.6 EH/s. The fleet consists of 230,507 deployed miners spread across facilities that draw 808 MW of CleanSpark’s total 1.8 GW in contracted power capacity.

Revenue pressure meets diversification

Bitcoin mining revenue for fiscal Q3 2026 came in at $138 million, a 30.5% decline compared to the same quarter a year earlier. The company also posted a net loss of $239.8 million, driven largely by fair value adjustments tied to Bitcoin price swings.

CleanSpark’s most significant move into high-performance computing and AI data center leasing is a 20-year triple-net lease for 175 MW at its Sandersville, Georgia campus. That single deal carries $6.6 billion in contracted revenue over its base term, with potential extensions that could push the total to $11.6 billion.

CEO and Chairman Matt Schultz has framed this as a simultaneous push on three fronts: growing mining productivity, expanding the company’s power and land portfolio, and commercializing existing assets for HPC and AI workloads.
