You know one shouldn’t blow your on trumpet 🎺
But I do feel super proud of not only surviving the dip but doing really well in our last quarter. The weather has been bad for 3 months solid, it’s been below 20 for weeks making it difficult to maintain good return temperatures to the asics. Wind stirs up dust and debris making maintenance an everyday essential. The rain just makes it miserable. It’s our fourth winter here in Paraguay and my second as head of operations; and it’s been a lot more challenging than last year. This winter has been just as much of an issue as the really hot weather. Hydro mining is all about the cooling towers, pumps, valves and sensors , the miners just work if you keep all that just right. Regulations and compliance requirements changed have changed overnight, energy providers have had internal disputes and changes about rates and provision to intensive and large customers. We have found a great opportunity in Africa, good rates for 10Mw of air cooled mining and phase 1 is on its final overland leg of a long haul out of the shit show that Ethiopia was. Fingers crossed for energisation before Christmas. Back in Paraguay construction begins next week on our second drying facility where we will be drying mangos and pineapple for export to Europe. I wouldn’t recommend trying anything like this if regulators and audits aren’t your thing. Crossing the t’s and dotting the i’s, first batches of bitcoin mango shipping end of Feb.
