Key Initiatives for April included:
- Strategic Fleet Renewal: The Company continued to execute its fleet optimization program by decommissioning certain legacy S19 series units at its facilities in select international locations. This move is part of a broader effort to phase out less efficient hardware in favor of next-generation technology, i.e. the procurement and deployment of S21 series miners to improve energy efficiency (J/TH).
- Global Footprint Stability: The Company currently operates across 26 active sites globally, maintaining a diversified portfolio of 20 facilities dedicated to self-mining operations and 6 sites utilized for hashrate leasing. This geographic diversity allows Cango to optimize power costs.
Production and Cost Management: Enhancing Margin Resilience
Cango’s efforts have resulted in continued optimization of production economics.
- Bitcoin Production: In April 2026, Cango produced 230.04 BTC, which was generated exclusively from the Company’s self-mining operations.
- Production Costs: The Company achieved an average cash cost per coin of $68,061 for the month. This demonstrates continued cost discipline following the transition to a leaner production model initiated in the first quarter of 2026.
- Treasury Position: As of April 30, 2026, the Company’s total Bitcoin holdings stood at 1,057.46 BTC.
Strategic Outlook: Efficiency Over Scale
Moving forward, Cango remains steadfast in its strategy to prioritize mining economics over scale. The Company’s core objective is the continuous improvement of its fleet’s energy efficiency and the protection of operational margins. This disciplined approach ensures that the Company is well-positioned to continue its transition to tap into opportunities in energy and AI infrastructure.
