币界网报道:Bitcoin mining firm Hut 8 has expanded its credit facility with Coinbase Credit from $65 million to $130 million, extending the loan's maturity to July 2026. The amended agreement features a fixed 9% interest rate — down from the previous floating rate of 10.5%-11.5% — along with enhanced collateral protections including a no-rehypothecation covenant for pledged BTC and limited recourse terms. Hut 8 CEO Asher Genoot stated the improved terms position the company to pursue growth opportunities in Bitcoin mining and high-performance computing without shareholder dilution. The expansion comes as miners face capital optimization challenges post-Bitcoin halving, with Hut 8 reporting $134.3 million in Q1 net losses. Coinbase's institutional financing lead Matt Boyd emphasized their focus on providing non-dilutive financing to digital infrastructure firms. Hut 8's shares rose 6% to $16.83 following the announcement.
