Bitdeer’s stock declined sharply by 20.1% as investors reacted negatively to signs of operational deceleration and cautious near-term outlook despite the large Tydal lease deal. The market appears concerned that growth in core Bitcoin mining metrics is not translating into near-term financial momentum or margin expansion.
- Self-mining hash rate grew 342% year-over-year to approximately 73 EH/s, supported by a 113% increase in active rigs to about 243,000.
- Bitcoin production totaled roughly 2,694 in Q2, with a sequential increase across April to June.
- The $4.7 billion Tydal colocation lease with Volta represents a multi-year contracted revenue stream focused on AI infrastructure, supporting longer-term strategic diversification.
- Remaining capital expenditure for Tydal is estimated at $500 million, to be funded via project-level financing.
- Despite the sizable Tydal contract, management emphasized execution risks and the work ahead before realizing cash flows, which likely contributed to investor skepticism.
