Operational issues across its bitcoin mining sites are weighing on Hut 8 Mining as it tries to complete what would be one of the largest deals in the sector – the company's merger with U.S. Bitcoin Corp.

In mid-November 2022, Hut 8 stopped mining with 7,000 rigs at a site in North Bay, Ontario due to an ongoing dispute with its energy provider, Validus Power. Hut 8 has now removed all machines from the facility to a site in Medicine Hat, Alberta.

Hut 8 did receive a letter of no action from the Canadian competition authority for its merger with U.S. Bitcoin Corp., meaning the authority doesn't plan to challenge the move, Leverton said on the call. The company's main focus is on completing the merger, she said, which will give it access to additional power for mining rigs., mining profit plunged to CAD$3.33 million from $39.2 million during the same period a year earlier.
