Gate News message, April 23 — Three major developments in crypto mining and digital asset infrastructure unfolded on April 22.
HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ/TSX-V: HIVE) completed a $115 million private placement of 0% convertible preferred notes, with full exercise of underwriters’ over-allotment option. The notes mature in 2031 with an estimated net proceeds of approximately $109.5 million. The initial conversion price of approximately $2.57 per share represents a 17.5% premium to the April 16 closing price. The company simultaneously implemented an upside call option hedge to mitigate dilution risk. Proceeds will fund GPU purchases and data center construction. HIVE received conditional approval from the Toronto Venture Exchange and is expected to graduate from TSX Venture to the main TSX board around April 30.
Keel Infrastructure Corp. (NASDAQ: KEEL), formerly Bitfarms, completed the sale of its 70-megawatt Paso Pe mining facility in Paraguay. After transaction adjustments, the company received approximately $13 million (compared to the original agreed maximum price of $30 million, with the difference reflecting closing adjustments). CEO Ben Gagnon stated the sale marks the company’s complete exit from Latin American assets, with proceeds to be redeployed entirely to North American HPC and AI infrastructure pipelines. The stock rose approximately 4% following the announcement.
GSR launched GSR Crypto Core3 ETF (NASDAQ: BESO) on Nasdaq, marking the first U.S. actively managed multi-asset crypto ETF covering Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana. The fund carries a 1.00% management fee and rebalances weekly based on research-driven signals. It implements on-chain staking for Ethereum and Solana holdings to generate yield. Framework Digital Advisors serves as the investment advisor, with Jane Street Capital as the primary market maker.
