From the information revealed, Argo blockchain has a total mining revenue of about 883 BTC year-to-date so the tech company planned to hold 1,286 BTC or its equivalent as the month ends. Peter Wall who is the CEO of Argo Blockchain attributed the downplay in the crypto industry to major changes in June. According to Wall, there is a huge decrease in the total hash rate globally and mining challenges and also, China’s crackdown on mining contributed to the downplay in the industry.

China’s crackdown on miners threw a few mining companies and the entire crypto industry into chaos. Some of the mining companies were seen packing up and moved out of the country but others sold their hydroelectric plans to travel abroad. The entire activity harmed the price of assets and we saw BTC getting hit the most as it decreased drastically. Wall concluded that amid these happenings, Argo Blockchain still strived through. As a result, the company maintained the delivery of strong revenue which crossed huge margins. Argo Blockchain set a milestone in 2018 as the first mining firm to be listed on the London Stock Exchange as it placed more than 159 million shares at 16 British Pence per share.
