Hence, net losses recorded during the second quarter amounted to $2.38M or $0.1 per share, while during the first quarter the figure stood at $5.64M or $0.24 per share.

In June, the company's shares fell below $2 for the first time.

According to Aries Wang, Co-Founder of the crypto exchange Bibox, this drop was related to the decline in demand for mining equipment during the months before the bitcoin halving, which took place in May this year.
