Keel completed the sale of its Paso Pe mining farm in Paraguay, raising $13 million to completely exit the Bitcoin mining business and shift its focus to high-performance computing and AI development in North America. Hive Digital Technologies completed a $115 million private funding round, which will be used to purchase GPUs and develop data centers.
