Mainnet Capital, a Singapore-based fund manager, has purchased Mawson Infrastructure Group's greenfield sites in Midland, Texas for $8.5 million in cash and stablecoins. 
Mawson subsidiary Luna Squares Texas LLC, which held the relevant lease agreements and related contracts, was sold as part of the transaction. Mawson also sold 59 transformers that were earmarked for these Texas sites, according to a <a href="https://mawsoninc.com/mawson-infrastructure-group-inc-sells-greenfield-texas-sites-for-8-5m/?ref=blockhead.co">statement</a> by the mining company.
The sale allows the NASDAQ-listed Mawson to focus on its current 240 MW of facilities in Pennsylvania, while the proceeds from the sale will be used for debt reduction and funding future expansions across Mawson’s other sites, including the acquisition of additional ASIC miners, the statement said.

The sale was advised by Quarry Advisors, a leading transactional advisory firm in the energy and digital mining industries.
