 <p>Bitfarms Ltd says its <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/mining.html">mining</a> <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/output.html">output</a> popped 7.3% in September as it continued to install new miners and “fully energised” its facility in Rio Cuarto to 51 MW.</p>

 <p>The Canadian miner produced a total of 411 bitcoins last <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/month.html">month</a> – of which it sold 362 for about $9.5 million. Geoff Morphy – the Chief Executive of Bitfarms said in a press release today:</p>
 <blockquote>
  <p>We continue to believe that many of our best opportunities for growth and investment will arise around the next Bitcoin halving expected to occur in April 2024.</p>
 </blockquote>
 <p>The Toronto-headquartered firm still holds nearly $20 million worth of Bitcoin (703 in total). Its total operating capacity now sits at 233 MW.</p>
 <p>Shares of the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/bitcoin-mining.html">Bitcoin Mining</a> company are still down about 40% versus their recent high.</p>
 <h2 id="bitfarms-is-still-lagging-last-year-s-figures">Bitfarms is still lagging last year’s figures</h2>
 <p>Bitfarms is committed to strengthening its balance sheet and infrastructure ahead of the halving event next year – by which, it expects to have paid off under $10 million it still has in debt.</p>
 <p>The bitcoin mining company now has a total operating capacity of 233 MW. Its hash rate improved another 9.0% in September to 6.1 exahashes per second (EH/s).</p>
 <p>Bitfarms wanted its hash rate to hit 6.3 EH/s in the third quarter but “electrical infrastructure delays” at its Baie-Comeau facility saw it come a bit shy of the target.</p>
 <p>Note that the Canadian miner is still trailing the numbers it reported last year. Bitfarms mined 3,692 BTC in the first nine <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/month.html">month</a>s of this year versus 3,733 Bitcoin in the equivalent period of 2022. Wall Street currently has a consensus “buy” rating on BITF.</p>
