DMG Blockchain Solutions Announces Purchase of Reactor.xyz to Offer Hashrate Contracts
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 28, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. (TSX-V: DMGI) (OTCQB US: DMGGF) (FRANKFURT: 6AX) (“DMG”), a leading vertically integrated blockchain and data center technology company, has announced its acquisition of Reactor.xyz (“Reactor”) from Navier, Inc. (“Navier”), a prominent provider of bespoke data center deployments specializing in digital asset mining and artificial intelligence (AI).
Reactor is a highly-optimized solution to automate and manage hashrate contracts. Specifically unique to the software, for which there are several patent applications, is its balancing algorithm that assures hashrate delivery. A hashrate contract allows Bitcoin miners — who typically sell hashrate directly to a pool — to sell their hashrate to buyers willing to pay upfront for a specified term. These buyers are often incentivized by a discount compared to what the sellers would typically earn in bitcoin payouts over the contract period. For sellers, this arrangement provides faster access to payment, serving as a valuable treasury management tool akin to factoring receivables.
Reactor’s key enabling technology assures that the hashrate transferred from seller to buyer meets the contract’s requirements for the entirety of its term. This technology allows for highly granular hashrate delivery, ranging from 100 TH/s (equivalent to a single older generation Bitcoin mining machine) to over 1 EH/s (equivalent to an industrial mining farm). Having been developed and operating over the past several years, Reactor is a proven solution.
Terra Pool is an ideal platform to significantly expand Reactor’s reach. With Terra Pool having the ability to offer a large hashrate supply powered by carbon neutral energy, buyers will have access to a much larger supply than previously available. Furthermore, DMG believes that carbon neutral bitcoin may command a premium, and the same advantage could apply to carbon neutral hashrate. Terra Pool clients would thus have the option to either mine carbon neutral bitcoin or sell carbon neutral hashrate contracts, offering multiple avenues to benefit from participating in a carbon neutral pool.
DMG’s CEO, Sheldon Bennett commented, “DMG has made tremendous progress towards creating a holistic, carbon neutral Bitcoin ecosystem. This month alone, we’ve increased our own hashrate to 1.6 EH/s—up about 50% from the prior month, significantly upgraded the software behind Terra Pool and are on track for Systemic Trust to become a fully qualified custodian by the end of the calendar year or early in the new year. Now with the purchase of Reactor, we’ve added yet another important component to our ecosystem with the unique capability provided by Reactor.”
Navier’s CEO, Josh Metnick added, “Reactor is by a wide margin, the most stable, reliable and robust hashrate delivery platform in the world — I would challenge any company in our industry to offer a product that matches Reactor’s performance. Our engineers spent years optimizing Reactor, having gained the experience across scores of customer deployments. DMG has been a trusted partner for the past several years, and its acquisition of Reactor’s technology and its associated IP provides for efficient, direct delivery of carbon neutral hashrate to buyers without a middleman. We are excited about the possibilities and what the future holds for this technology in the hands of an established self-miner such as DMG.”
