The database is fully decentralized, meaning there is no single entity that controls it. Anyone from anywhere can view the entire history of the database at any time.
Each set of records in the database is referred to as a “block,” and anything that is recorded in the database is preserved there forever. Because of the immutability of the database, once a record has been entered, it’s impossible to manipulate or alter that record.
To put this in perspective, we’ll explain blockchain by comparing Google Docs with Microsoft Word:
Let’s say you and a co-worker are collaborating on a document. A decade ago, your only option would be to send your co-worker a Microsoft Word document and ask him to make his revisions. He would make his revisions, save the document, and send it back to you. It was a tedious and inefficient method.
Google Docs fixes this problem by allowing multiple people to view and edit documents at the same time. Most databases still operate like Microsoft Word, where only one person can make changes at a time and everyone else is locked out. Blockchain provides a solution in the same way that Google Docs does by allowing anyone to see updates in real time.
Bitcoin, a digital currency, uses blockchain technology. But blockchain also powers other digital currencies and has many other practical use cases outside of financial services.
The main thing to remember is that while Bitcoin is a currency, blockchain is the underlying infrastructure on which the currency exists. If Bitcoin is a Lamborghini, the blockchain is the Autobahn it rides on. It’s also important to note that Bitcoin is just one use for blockchain technology, just as email is one use of Internet technology.
Just as the Internet allows users to make video calls, visit websites, and play video games, blockchain has numerous uses other than Bitcoin, including supply chain management, healthcare tracking, and government documentation.
There’s no denying that blockchain is well past the hype phase. Industries such as healthcare, education, government, and real estate are discovering the potential and countless possibilities of blockchain technology.

Summary Overview:
· HIVE produced 213.8 Bitcoin in the month of December, from ASIC and GPU mining operations, representing an average of 113.2 Bitcoin Per Exahash.
· HIVE earned USD $3.15 million in income from our energy price hedging and grid balancing strategy, in addition to Bitcoin produced in December. Based on the daily Bitcoin prices during the month of December, the income from grid balancing could equate to a mined value of approximately 184 Bitcoin.

Bitcoin HODL Update
As of today’s date, HIVE maintains in its treasury 2,348 Bitcoin, with a market value of over USD $38 million.
Last quarter HIVE strategically sold Bitcoin to increase cash reserves to fund opportunistic expansions in the technology bear market. Mr. Holmes stated “We have seen a great opportunity to expand in this depressed market, where ASIC prices are down almost 90%, whereas Bitcoin price is down approximately 70%. Acquiring ASICs at steeply discounted prices positions us for ideal return on invested capital, and further decreases our cost of production for Bitcoin, and improves our gross mining margin in the interim bear market.”
HIVE notes that in the crypto mining sector, different companies have different strategies for HODLing or selling Bitcoin. Some companies may employ a 100% HODL strategy, and not sell any Bitcoin, instead opting to sell shares to cover operating costs and/or capital expenditures. Other companies may elect to sell all of their mined Bitcoin to fund operating costs and/or capital expenditures. HIVE has a unique hybrid strategy and may elect to sell digital assets where the Company believes there are attractive opportunities to scale the business. Our flexible HODL strategy has always allowed us to have a core investment in digital assets on HIVE’s balance sheet.
· HIVE’s strategy to improve its global efficiency was achieved by the agile acquisition of 3,570 Bitmain S19j Pro at prices steeply discounted from the previous year. In addition, HIVE is pleased to deploy its own ASIC Bitcoin miner system for Proof of Work, the ‘HIVE BuzzMiner’, in partnership with Intel.
· As a tactical update, in the last two weeks HIVE has received and installed over 3,400 new generation Bitcoin ASIC miners in the 100 TH/s to 110 TH/s range, which is a massive efficiency upgrade which will lower the Company’s average cost of producing Bitcoin and improve gross mining margins.

Auszug
"Summary Overview:
· HIVE produced 260 Bitcoin in the month of January, from ASIC and GPU mining operations, representing an average of 110 Bitcoin Per Exahash. A 21% month over month increase, compared to December 2022 (214 Bitcoin produced).
· HIVE’s year over year monthly Bitcoin production was consistent (260 Bitcoin in January 2023 and 264 Bitcoin in January 2022), during a period where the Bitcoin network difficulty increased approximately 60%.
· HIVE earned USD $180,000 in income from balancing the grid, in addition to Bitcoin produced in January. Based on the daily Bitcoin prices during the month of January, the income from grid balancing would equate to a mined value of 10 Bitcoin.
· HIVE deployed over 6,700 new generation ASIC miners in its data centers, representing one of the largest upgrades in the Company’s history, to improve our gross mining margin and fleet efficiency.
· HIVE has deployed over 3,200 BuzzMiners in its facilities in Sweden and Canada. These miners are from the 5,655 BuzzMiners manufactured, tested, and received to date.
· HIVE has fully deployed all the 3,570 S19j Pro miners acquired in December 2022 into our New Brunswick and Lachute facilities. As a result of in-house software improvements by HIVE’s technical team, we further increased our efficiency at our New Brunswick site by approximately 20% in average J/TH efficiency.
· HIVE expects to receive an additional 645 BuzzMiners in the next 2 months, representing a total production quantity of 6,300 BuzzMiners powered by the Intel Blockscale ASIC for the initial production run. HIVE is the first company in the world to commercially deploy thousands of its own Bitcoin ASIC miners powered by the Intel Blockscale ASIC.
· HIVE sells all of the Bitcoin earned from our GPU mining hashrate, with a focus to HODL the green Bitcoin mined from ASICs.

The firm's management has set hash rate targets that have varied over time. According to a January 8 press release, HIVE aimed to reach a hash rate of 4.8 exahashes per second (EH/s) by the end of January and 5.6 EH/s by June 2024, after the installation of 7,000 S21 miners. By the end of 2024, the company expects to achieve a hash rate of 8 EH/s, as noted in a release dated December 21, 2023.
