Placing at 13 pence per Share to Expand Bitcoin Mining Operations
London, New York, 27 September 2024, Vinanz Limited (London AQSE: BTC and US OTCQB: VINZF), the London listed Bitcoin mining company focusing on decentralised deployment of Bitcoin mining clusters in multiple data facilities throughout the US and Canada, is pleased to announce that it has received firm placing agreements to raise £608,300 (gross) at 13 pence per shares by issuing 4,679,230 new ordinary shares.
These new funds will be used primarily to acquire additional Bitcoin miners to boost the Company's current Bitcoin mining fleet in North America and for general working capital.
David Lenigas, Vinanz's Executive Chairman, said:
"It's fantastic that we have managed to raise this money to build out and expand our growing Bitcoin fleet in North America. No one really knows what's going to happen to the Bitcoin price through 2024 and beyond, but we are anticipating a strong rise in the Bitcoin price in the coming months to years and we remain laser focused on accelerating our expansion plans in North America. Raising fresh equity now to increase the mining fleet puts the Company into a much stronger financial position going forward, especially if we do see the much anticipated rise in Bitcoin prices."
