Canada based LUXXFOLIO Holdings announces that it has agreed to a debt settlement arrangement (the “Debt Settlement”) with its major lender (the “Lender”). Under the Debt Settlement, the Company will reduce its debt by approximately USD5.8mm (the “Debt”) in exchange for a reduction to its current mining fleet by approximately 1900 machines (the “Miners”). The Debt represents the Company’s entire obligation to the Lender and substantially all the Company’s long-term debt. The Miners represent substantially all the remaining mining machines that were directly acquired by the Company via asset backed financing facilities with the Lender.
To facilitate and simplify the Debt Settlement, the Company agreed, at the Lender’s request, to have an event of default occur under the existing financing agreements to permit the Lender to execute its right under such agreements to take ownership of the Miners in full satisfaction of the Debt. The Debt Settlement is subject to the delivery of the Miners to the Lender and the Lender’s satisfactory inspection of them.
This is a strategic move to manage risk in the volatile bitcoin mining industry and the general market conditions. LUXXFOLIO gains financial flexibility and capacity in our New Mexico site to aggressively pursue our immersion mining strategy.
LUXXFOLIO believes immersion is the future of mining and provides a risk-reduced business strategy for mining. With immersion mining, LUXXFOLIO collects consistent monthly hosting revenue, plus the bitcoin mined through the overclocking of hashrate – as high as 50% approximately. This strategy reduces the significant capital required to procure and maintain current generation ASIC miners.
As per the source, immersion also provides benefits for a longer life cycle for mining equipment, a stable environment, and consistent temperatures year-round, even in warmer climates. The Company’s initial immersion system commenced mining operations on August 8, 2022.
LUXXFOLIO will continue to leverage relationships developed with the Navajo Nation, benefitting from affordable green energy in climates and locations that otherwise would not be suitable for mining.
