Management Commentary

"The first quarter of 2023 marked another pivotal milestone for Bit Digital as the industry emerged from the depths of the downturn and macro conditions became incrementally more favorable. Our focus throughout 2022 was primarily on ensuring we maintained a strong balance sheet and remained nimble to endure a potentially protracted downturn. As we progress in 2023, we remain committed to preserving our balance sheet while adopting a more opportunistic approach to capitalize on compelling value propositions in the market. Moving forward, we will continue to focus on what we can control and setting the stage for long-term value creation for all Bit Digital stakeholders.

We continue to make strong progress towards our goal for our mining operations to become entirely carbon free. As of March 31, 2023, our mining operations were approximately 85% carbon-free, which is roughly flat from the prior quarter. However, if you remove the contribution from one hosting facility that we exited at the end of March from the calculation, our fleet would have been powered by approximately 98% carbon-free energy sources, and we expect to remain in that range for Q2 and going forward.

Subsequent to quarter-end, Bit Digital finalized new hosting agreements for more than 30 MW in aggregate with three separate hosting partners. Importantly, these hosting sites all utilize energy that is almost entirely carbon-free. We have executed a series of opportunistic mining purchase orders to fill this capacity, bringing us closer to our target of doubling our active hash rate this year. Moving forward, we will continue to evaluate strategic growth opportunities while prioritizing financial agility throughout the entire digital asset cycle.

We are excited about our recent entry into the Icelandic market which we announced in May 2023 . Diversifying our operations across geographies and jurisdictions is a strategic focus for us, and we believe that Iceland's clean energy abundance and supportive government policies provide an ideal environment for our mining operations. Iceland is a top priority for future expansion of our mining business.

We remain committed to expanding our proof-of-stake operations and reaching our target to have approximately half of our digital assets position actively staked. As a point of clarification, Bit Digital stakes ETH for our own account and does not offer staking services to individuals or enterprises. We believe that staking and validating Ethereum is synergistic to our bitcoin business and creates a 'flywheel effect' whereby staking rewards can be compounded or redeployed. We remain committed to both BTC and ETH and believe our strategy provides exposure to the economics of the two leading digital assets."
