CleanSpark produced 593 Bitcoin in August 2026. This is up from the 586 Bitcoin the company mined in July. The update was released on September 8.
The Las Vegas company reported average daily production of 19.12 BTC. Its peak day reached 20.40 BTC. Year-to-date production now stands at 4,903 BTC.
CleanSpark’s average operating hashrate was 38.3 exahashes per second in August. That is slightly lower than July’s 38.6 EH/s. The company’s deployed fleet included 201,269 machines as of August 31.
Bitcoin Sales Outpace Production
CleanSpark sold 821 Bitcoin during August. That included 77 BTC sold at spot prices, 500 BTC sold through call exercises, and 244 BTC tied to a delta-neutral basis trade.
The company reported an average sale price of $65,420 per Bitcoin. That figure includes net proceeds and premiums, not just the spot market price.
Because sales outpaced production, CleanSpark’s Bitcoin holdings dropped. The company ended August with 13,703 BTC, down from 13,931 BTC at the end of July.
Of those holdings, 3,951 BTC, or about 29%, were posted as collateral or listed as receivables. All of it was linked to derivative trades.
Mining Economics Improved in August
Bitcoin mining profitability improved during August. This happened mostly in the final third of the month as Bitcoin prices climbed.
Hashprice, which measures miner revenue per unit of computing power, opened the month at $31.63 per petahash per day. It closed at $39.33, averaging $34.63 for the month.
That average was the highest monthly hashprice since May 2026, according to data from Luxor.
CleanSpark’s peak fleet efficiency was 16.07 joules per terahash. At that efficiency, the electricity-only breakeven price works out to roughly nine cents per kilowatt-hour.
Luxor estimated that fleets in that efficiency range earned about $87 per megawatt-hour in August, before other costs. Average industry power costs were estimated near $48 per megawatt-hour.
CleanSpark did not disclose its own electricity price or fleet-wide average efficiency. That means its exact profit margin for the month is not fully known.
The company’s most recent quarterly filing covered the period ending June 30. It reported $138 million in Bitcoin mining revenue and an overall net loss of $239 million, driven partly by a Bitcoin fair-value loss.
CleanSpark also gave updates on its data center projects. Construction continues at its Sandersville, Georgia campus, tied to $6.6 billion in contracted revenue.
In Texas, ERCOT issued conditional batch-zero classifications covering 585 MW of contracted baseload capacity and 300 MW of studied load capacity. The company said it will keep working with ERCOT and the Public Utility Commission of Texas.
CleanSpark’s next production report, expected in early October, will show September output, sales, and hashrate figures.
