$MGTI is buying another 2000 bitcoin rigs.
DURHAM, N.C., Oct. 12, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- MGT Capital Investments, Inc. (MGTI) announced today that it has executed a new purchase order with Bitmain Technologies for an additional 2,000 S9 Antminer mining rigs, with shipment expected by the end of fourth quarter 2017.
Funds for the large order were provided by institutional investors though agreements whereby MGT will manage the mining operations and receive a management fee as well as a share of the profits. This financial arrangement creates downside protection for the Company while still providing strong economic upside leverage. Stephen Schaeffer, President of MGT Crypto-Capital Strategies, stated, "We believe having a mix of fully-owned and investor-owned mining rigs will allow us to appreciably expand our crypto currency footprint with less equity dilution. We plan to shortly update the investment community and shareholders with further details."
