Bitcoin miner, CleanSpark, has solidified its market position through the acquisition of GRIID Infrastructure. This all-stock transaction, valued at $155 million, includes the assumption of GRIID’s existing debts and marks a significant expansion of CleanSpark’s operational capacity. 
Growth and Community Engagement 
Following the merger, CleanSpark is set to enhance its infrastructure capabilities significantly, with plans to increase its power capacity in Tennessee to over 400 megawatts within the next two years.&nbsp; 
This move aligns with the company’s vision to extend its influence across the advancing technological landscape in America, supporting a future where its facilities could potentially manage up to one gigawatt of data center operations.

Zach Bradford, CEO of CleanSpark, expressed enthusiasm about the integration, stating, “We are looking forward to welcoming the GRIID team into the CleanSpark family and we are excited to apply the CleanSpark way, carefully honed alongside the communities we operate in Georgia and Mississippi, to GRIID’s impressive pipeline in Tennessee.”&nbsp; 
He further emphasized the company’s commitment to community collaboration, which is pivotal for sustainable expansion. 
Additionally, the agreement includes an exclusive hosting deal, immediately allocating 20 megawatts of power to CleanSpark, boosting its immediate operational capacity. This move is complemented by a financial framework where CleanSpark provided GRIID with crucial working capital and bridge loans totaling approximately $55.9 million, ensuring the swift resolution of GRIID’s obligations. 
Anticipated Outcomes and Executive Perspectives 
The anticipated growth from this merger is considerable. Bradford projects that the expansion will allow CleanSpark exceed 100 megawatts in Tennessee by the end of this calendar year and eventually grow that to 200 megawatts in 2025 before exceeding 400 megawatts in 2026. 
This systematic build-out is expected to replicate the success CleanSpark achieved in Georgia, where it developed substantial infrastructure backed by long-term power contracts. 
Executives from GRIID echoed this positive outlook. Trey Kelly, CEO of GRIID, noted the shared visions and values between the two companies, stating, “I am incredibly excited for the opportunity for GRIID to join the CleanSpark team. Together, we will achieve rapid growth in the Tennessee Valley.”&nbsp; 
GRIID’s location and existing facilities in Tennessee are pivotal to this plan, enhancing the overall resilience of the regional power grid and underscoring the nature of this acquisition. 
The boards of both companies have unanimously approved the transaction, with closure expected by the third quarter of 2024, pending GRIID shareholder approval and customary closing conditions.&nbsp;
