(Nasdaq:GRYP) ('Gryphon' or the 'Company'), an innovative venture in the bitcoin and AI space dedicated to helping bring digital assets to the market, today announced the acquisition of 1,900 S19JPro series machines with an extended warranty from RepairBit LLC ('RepairBit') at a 20% discount to market rates provided by Hashrate Index. This purchase will increase Gryphon's mining fleet by approximately 22%, from 8,500 to 10,400 machines, strengthening the company's position in the bitcoin mining sector.
