Canaan Q3 revenue plunges 90% to $14.5 million as bitcoin mining hardware sales slump
Canaan reported Q3 revenue of $14.5 million, down 90% year-over-year, as sales of bitcoin mining hardware collapsed. The company still posted an $8 million profit, helped by gains in cryptocurrency and derivatives holdings. For traders, the steep drop in mining rig demand signals continued stress on the bitcoin mining sector and capex pullback that can weigh on hash-rate growth.
