Bitcoin mining company Bitfarms reported a 34% month-on-month (MoM) increase in earnings as it increased its mining hashrate following fleet upgrades and expansion. According to the Bitcoin ( BTC ) mining firm, its July operations generated 253 BTC, which is worth about $16.2 million at current market prices. Compared to its 189 BTC ($12.1 million) earnings in June, the company saw a 34% increase in monthly earnings from Bitcoin mining. Bitfarms attributed the increased income to its fleet upgrade and expansion efforts. The company reported 11.1 exahashes (EH/s) operational on July 31. This shows a year-on-year (YoY) increase of 109% and a MoM increase of 7%. Furthermore, the company’s average operational EH/s in July was also 10.3, up 36% from June. After the Bitcoin halving , when miner rewards were cut in half, Bitfarms announced plans to triple its hashrate. The company said that it would invest about $240 million to upgrade its mining equipment, adding 88,000 more miners.

The company highlighted that they are working with the hardware provider Bitmain to replace the machines and are expecting the delivery to be in August.
