In September 2016, MGT commenced its Bitcoin mining operations in the Wenatchee Valley area of central Washington. Throughout 2017 the Company expanded its mining capacity with the purchase of additional miners and by entering into hosting and power agreements with Washington facilities owners. The Company also entered into management agreements with third party investors whereby the investors purchased the mining hardware, and the Company will receive both a fee to manage the mining operations plus one-half of the net operating profit. Due to the lack of availability of adequate electric power in Washington to support the Company’s growth, the Company decided to move its principal operations to northern Sweden at the end of 2017. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company took delivery of additional Bitcoin mining machines in Sweden and moved or sold most of its Bitcoin mining machines from Washington. The Company plans to continue growing its mining capacity in Sweden during 2018.
