Canadian crypto mining firm, Bitfarms has turned down a buyout offer from Riot Platforms, marking it as insufficient. Riot Platforms recently proposed a purchase of Bitfarms’ shares at $2.30 each. Bitfarm believes this value grossly underestimates its potential and prospects.
“In order to advance discussions with Riot in a meaningful manner, the committee requested customary confidentiality and non-solicitation protections to which Riot did not respond.”
Bitfarm also stated it has received additional unsolicited expressions of interest from other parties.
Exploring Further Options
Bitfarms has also engaged Moelis, a noted investment bank, to explore additional interests it has received from other entities. This move underscores the company’s search for better value recognition amidst growing interest from various quarters.
As the situation evolves, Bitfarms remains a key player in the global cryptocurrency sector, and investors and industry analysts closely monitor its strategic decisions.
