Toronto, Ontario; July 13th, 2022 – TAAL Distributed Information Technologies Inc. (CSE:TAAL | FWB:9SQ1 | OTC:TAALF) (“TAAL” or the “Company”), a vertically integrated blockchain infrastructure and service provider for enterprise, announces its wholly owned operating subsidiary has entered into an agreement to acquire 968 Bitmain S19J Pro machines and host them with a subsidiary of LUXXFOLIO Holdings Inc. at a facility in New Mexico, representing an immediate increase of 100 petahash/s (“PH/s“) of additional computing power. The machines will be immersion cooled and represent a first full immersion deployment and acts as a test bed ahead of final design plans for TAAL’s flagship 50MW site in Grand Falls, New Brunswick which will come online during 2023. Details of the agreement include:

• 968 Bitmain S19J Pro machines immediately hashing upon agreement inception
• Miners will use immersion cooling to optimize performance
• The machines come with a one-year warranty and will be hosted in a facility located in New Mexico powered by majority non-carbon emitting solar energy
• Total of 100 Petahash/second
• TAAL can mine across all three SHA-256 based blockchain networks – Bitcoin Core (“BTC”), BitcoinSV (“BSV”), Bitcoin Cash (“BCH”) – switching chains economically and dynamically to optimize yield.

With this additional capacity we continue to execute on our network rebalancing program and diversification strategy and build robustness across our mining fleet,

said Richard Baker, CEO of TAAL. 

With this deployment our mining hash centre operations are in three diversified locations in North America and underpin our long-term objective of building out the transaction infrastructure of the future. We remain focussed on our goal of reaching 2 EH/s of hash power at full deployment.
