CleanSpark Adds $100 Million Two Prime Loan, Lifting Bitcoin-Backed Credit Capacity to $400 Million

The miner is tapping its nearly 13,000-bitcoin treasury as collateral to fund growth without issuing new shares.

Overview

  • The new facility follows a $100 million expansion of CleanSpark’s Coinbase Prime credit line earlier in the week, with the two arrangements operating independently.
  • Management plans to deploy the capital for additional mining hashrate, data center buildouts, high-performance computing campuses, and digital asset management.
  • Executives describe the financing as non-dilutive and say the $400 million total capacity remains largely undrawn, preserving balance-sheet flexibility and Bitcoin exposure.
  • Shares slipped modestly after the announcement, with coverage pointing to investor caution around Bitcoin price swings, rising hashrates and collateralized leverage.
  • CleanSpark reports 50 EH/s of operational hashrate and a U.S. data center footprint, reflecting a broader shift among major miners to use BTC-backed loans such as those seen at Riot and Marathon.
