 Hut 8 Corp, a digital asset miner headquartered in Miami, Florida, will manage the mining operations of MiningCo, a newly created mining company approved by the US Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York in view of the Celsius Network LLC reorganization plan.
 The plan allows Celsius to transfer its mining operations to MiningCo. It’s part of Celsius Network’s bankruptcy proceedings.

 This just in 📰➡️ our reorganization plan filed in the Celsius Network LLC bankruptcy proceedings was approved. This means providing end-to-end managed services for five sites in Texas, overseeing ~12 EH/s computing capacity (122,000 miners) and more than 300 MW of energy.

 As granted by the court, Hut 8 will manage MiningCo’s mining operations under a four-year managed services contract.
 Commenting on the approval, Hut 8 president Asher Genoot said:
 “The <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="mining" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/mining.html">mining</a> plan that was presented to the creditors and the courts is strong and sound, and we look forward to proceeding with construction imminently at the Cedarvale, Texas site, and managing four additional sites once the process closes in the first quarter of 2024.”
 Hut 8 will use the opportunity to grow its <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="manage" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/manage.html">manage</a>d services business. The company also hopes to help build equity for <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Celsius" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/celsius.html">Celsius</a>’ creditors through MiningCo, Genoot added.
 Apart from the four Texas locations at Rebel, East Isle, Style and Garden City (cumulatively having 87 MW), Hut 8 will also manage services at Cedarvale, Texas, MiningCo’s fifth site.&nbsp;
 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Celsius" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/celsius.html">Celsius</a> struck a <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="mining" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/mining.html">mining</a> deal with US Bitcoin Corp in August, and selected the company which recently combibed its business with Hut 8 as the provider of end-to-end development services at Cedarvale.
 Hut 8 will thus oversee the site’s design and development, which when completed, will have roughly 66,000 miners and offer more than 215 MW of energy.&nbsp;
