From the information revealed, Agro Blockchain now has a total mining revenue of about 883 BTC year-to-date. Also, the technology company is planning to hold 1,286 BTC or its equivalent as the month ends.

Peter Wall, CEO of Agro Blockchain, attributes the downplay in the crypto industry to the big changes in June.

According to Wall, there is a drastic decrease in the total hash rate globally and mining challenges. In addition, China’s crackdown on crypto mining also contributed to the downplay in the industry.

Recall that China’s crackdown on crypto miners threw several mining companies and the entire crypto industry into chaos.

Some of the mining companies were seen packing up and moving out of the country. Others sold their hydroelectric plants to travel abroad.

The entire activity harmed the price of digital assets. Bitcoin was the most affected cryptocurrency as the price of BTC plummeted drastically.

Wall concluded that amid these happenings, Agro Blockchain still strived through them all. As a result, the company maintained a continuous delivery of strong revenue that crossed an impressive margin.

Agro Blockchain set a milestone in 2018 as the first crypto mining firm to be listed on the London Stock Exchange. The firm placed more than 159 million ordinary shares at 16 British Pence ($0.22) per share.

From TradingView data, at the time of its listing, the stock surged to reach its all-time high of over £2.80, which amounts to $3.90 in February.
