Bit Digital’s Numbers

Bit Digital repositioned approximatelyĀ 70,000 ETH into liquid stakingĀ to preserve treasury flexibility. Meanwhile,Ā cloud services fell 13.1%Ā year-over-year toĀ $16.8 million, andĀ mining revenues dropped 32.9% to $3.7 million, impacted by lower BTC production and weaker prices during the period.

The net loss for the quarter was $146.7 million, an improvement from the $185.3 million recorded in Q4 2025. The company attributed the impact toĀ non-cash fair value adjustmentsĀ on its holdings. As of the end of March, Bit Digital held approximatelyĀ 154,444 ETH, valued at aroundĀ $327 million, with an average acquisition price ofĀ $3,045 per unit.

The Shift Toward Ethereum and AI

Bit Digital began its transition in June 2025, moving away from bitcoin mining toward anĀ Ethereum-based treasury andĀ stakingĀ strategy. In its report, the company reaffirmed that direction: “Mining remains a cash flow generator, butĀ it is no longer a strategic growth priority,” it stated. Capital, the firm noted,Ā will be redirected toward Ethereum and infrastructure.

The company’s CEO,Ā Sam Tabar,Ā stated that the company was “early”Ā in identifying the industry’s major shiftsĀ and said he sees a new opportunity in theĀ convergence between artificial intelligence and Ethereum. In that context, he mentionedĀ WhiteFiber, a high-performance computing subsidiary that raised approximatelyĀ $160 millionĀ in its IPO in August 2025. At the close of the first quarter,Ā Bit Digital held approximately 27 million WhiteFiber sharesĀ and retained a majority stake in the company.
