ZEC TLDR
Priority access expands Zcash mining plan
Fortitude signed a letter of intent with BITMAIN to obtain priority access to the next generation of Zcash mining equipment. If Fortitude executes the order, the non-binding purchase commitment could reach US$100 million. Fortitude is required to pay a refundable deposit of $20 million, equivalent to 20% of the proposed commitment amount. DCG increased Fortitude's credit line from US$50 million to US$70 million, with approximately US$42.7 million still available. Fortitude currently has an operating power of 4.7 GSol/s. It previously ordered 9,000 Z15 Pro miners and is expected to increase the computing power of 7.56 GSol/s.
Priority access to expand Zcash mining plan
Fortitude Mining Holdings has signed a letter of intent with BITMAIN to ensure continued access to unreleased Zcash mining equipment. The agreement includes a non-binding commitment to purchase up to $100 million worth of next-generation equipment. The move continues Fortitude's expansion into Zcash mining after the company has expanded its Equihash algorithm mining and power coverage. Management said that acquiring equipment in advance will help the company introduce new hardware in a timely manner when Bitmain brings new products to market.
Fortitude currently operates an Equihash rate of approximately 4.7 GSol/s. The company controls more than 60 megawatts of contract power capacity at seven sites in South Dakota, Nebraska, Texas and New York.
In July, Fortitude agreed to purchase 9,000 Antminer Z15 Pro miners for $31.5 million. These equipment will increase production capacity by 7.56 GSol/s. The plan's implementation coincided with Zcash receiving support from THORChain after months of technical work.
As required by the letter of intent, Fortitude is required to pay a refundable deposit of US$20 million, which is 20% of the promised amount. The company plans to withdraw the money from its credit line this week.
Fortitude increased the credit line provided by its parent company Digital Currency Group (DCG) from US$50 million to US$70 million. There is still approximately US$42.7 million in borrowing lines available, which provides financial support for the company to pay deposits.
Building a business system around ZEC strategy
DCG spun Fortitude from Foundry's self-mining business in January 2025. Since then, Fortitude has established a venture capital mining model centered on Zcash. Grant approvals for Zcash have reached $8.39 million this month.
Fortitude continues to increase Zcash mining capacity as ZEC prices rise sharply. Zcash traded above $1,370 Tuesday, up 3.6% in 24 hours, as Fortitude prepared for a possible next round of hardware purchases.
DCG 创始人巴里·西尔伯特（Barry Silbert）曾表示，随着时间的推移，Zcash 的市场价值有望达到比特币的 5% 至 10%。Fortitude 的硬件计划遵循这一群体观点，尽管目前的购买承诺仍为非约束性的。
此举发生时，Zcash 投资产品此前因需求旺盛后出现了周度资金流出。Fortitude 计划的设备采购取决于最终条款、设备可用性以及公司是否决定推进该项目。目前，该协议仅赋予 Fortitude 优先获取权，而非已完成的一笔 1 亿美元订单。
