According to the reported Q2 2023 financial and operational highlights of Riot Platforms, its total revenue is $76.7 Million, as compared to $72.9 Million for the same three-month period last year. The increase was primarily driven by a 27% surge in Bitcoin production, offset by lower <a href="https://www.thecoinrepublic.com/2023/08/02/bitcoin-addresses-in-loss-just-marked-new-one-month-high/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin </a>prices which averaged $28,024 per BTC for the quarter.

</blockquote> 
As per its recent BTC production update, higher BTC production was driven by a significant increase in miners deployed year-over-year. The average cost to mine BTC reported by the company was $8,389 while the mining revenue was $49.7 Million for the quarter. 
Riot Platforms earned $13.5 Million in power curtailment credits during the quarter. The Bitcoin miner also mentioned the data center hosting revenue of $7.7 Million, driven by fewer hosting customers and lower BTC values during the 2023 period.&nbsp; 
The engineering revenue of $19.3 Million for the quarter was primarily driven by increased demand from third-party data center and engineering customers and delivering on a backlog of projects. 
As further mentioned in its key highlights, the <a href="https://www.thecoinrepublic.com/2023/06/03/bitcoin-miners-will-remain-profitable-states-glassnode-data/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin miner</a> has maintained an industry-leading financial position with $408.4 Million in working capital. This amount includes $289.2 Million in cash in hand and $221.4 Million in unencumbered BTC. Notably, all of these were produced by the self-mining operations, as of June 30, 2023.

Lastly, after reporting Q2 2023 results, RIOT share price showed a bearish trend with over 18 Million of volume on earnings day.
