BitFuFu Inc. (NASDAQ:FUFU) reported a quarter that exposed the difference between producing more Bitcoin and making more money from it. Second-quarter revenue fell 62.9% year over year to $42.8 million, while a $20.5 million net loss replaced a $47.1 million profit. Yet average hashrate allocated to self-mining rose 47%, helping lift self-mined production 34% to 192 Bitcoin. Shares closed 11% lower at $1.29 on August 17 after the results. For BitFuFu Inc. (NASDAQ:FUFU), the question is whether shifting more computing power toward self-mining creates operating leverage or simply increases its exposure to Bitcoin prices and network difficulty.
The largest hole was cloud mining, historically the company's biggest revenue source. Cloud Mining Solutions revenue plunged 73.6% to $24.9 million. BitFuFu attributed the decline to lower selling prices amid falling Bitcoin prices, weaker market sentiment, and reduced order volumes from existing customers. The company reported net dollar retention of 24.1%, calculated as second-quarter 2026 recurring revenue divided by total second-quarter 2025 Cloud Mining revenue. Equipment sales also fell to zero from $5.2 million. The cloud-mining decline overwhelmed the benefit of BitFuFu Inc. (NASDAQ:FUFU) allocating more hashrate to self-mining.
Self-mining was hardly immune. Revenue declined to $14.0 million from $14.8 million even as production increased. BitFuFu attributed the decline to the combined effect of a 27.5% drop in the average Bitcoin price to $71,600 and higher network difficulty, partially offset by the increased self-mining allocation. Network difficulty reduced daily Bitcoin earned per terahash by 9.7%. Cost of revenue reached $43.7 million, exceeding total revenue. A $16.9 million net fair-value loss on digital ***** ets and digital-asset receivables or payables significantly affected company-defined adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, which was negative $18.4 million. BitFuFu Inc. (NASDAQ:FUFU) therefore suffered from both weaker operating economics and an adverse accounting swing.
BitFuFu Inc. (NASDAQ:FUFU) produced more Bitcoin despite the harsher environment, deployed next-generation S21 XP miners, and restored total managed hashrate to approximately 20 EH/s by mid-August from 15.3 EH/s at quarter-end. Hosting and other revenue also rose to $3.9 million from $1.1 million. If Bitcoin prices recover while difficulty and power costs become more favorable, the larger self-mining allocation could turn higher production into a much stronger revenue and earnings response.
