Ionic Digital Announces April 2026 Mining and Operations Update

By

WASHINGTON, May 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ionic Digital Inc. (“Ionic Digital” or the “Company”), a digital infrastructure company supporting the expanding needs of AI and high-performance computing, today issued its unaudited Mining and Operations Update for April 2026.

In April, Ionic Digital mined 20.45 Bitcoin (“BTC”), a decrease of 27.1% compared to the prior month. Daily average hashrate was 1.51 EH/s, down 26.2% month-over-month, primarily driven by the full wind-down of mining operations at the Oklahoma GXD-hosted site, which is now offline. Ionic Digital values the partnership and professionalism demonstrated by GXD throughout the relationship. Midland, comprising four mining sites, remains the Company’s sole operating mining location, producing 20.45 BTC in April.

Global network hashrate declined 2.1% in April, while average daily block production remained relatively stable, increasing 0.5% from March. Active miners totaled 24,959.

Ionic Digital continues to maintain its zero-debt position and liquidated no BTC in April. As of April 30, 2026, the Company held 2,836.4 BTC, an increase of approximately 19.9 BTC over the prior month.
