James Manning, CEO and Founder of Mawson, said, “April was operationally solid for the business, with a particularly pleasing result in our hosting co-location business ramp up, where we expanded from 16 megawatts online in March, to 28 megawatts online in April. We expect this to rise to 52 megawatts online by the end of May, as we progressively roll out and expand our second major Bitcoin mining facility in the town of Midland, Pennsylvania.
