(“BitFuFu” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: FUFU), a world-leading Bitcoin miner and mining services innovator, today announced that it has been selected as the winner of the “Mining Service Provider of the Year” award in the 10 th annual FinTech Breakthrough Awards program conducted by FinTech Breakthrough , an independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies, and products in the global FinTech market today.

Marking its 10-year anniversary, the FinTech Breakthrough Awards program continues its mission of honoring the innovators that are redefining the future of financial services through breakthrough technology, customer impact, and market leadership.

BitFuFu uses industrial-scale Bitcoin mining infrastructure across a diversified global network spanning North America, South America, the Middle East, and Africa. By deploying the latest mining equipment — with an average fleet efficiency of 17.5 J/T — and continuously sourcing low-cost electricity across its facilities, BitFuFu drives down the unit cost of Bitcoin production while maintaining stable hashrate delivery. This multi-continent footprint optimizes energy efficiency, mitigates regulatory and environmental risk, and enables resilient operations at scale.

BitFuFu offers a comprehensive suite of mining services designed for both retail and institutional users worldwide, including Bitcoin cloud mining, miner hosting, mining equipment sales, mining software, and mining pool services. Users can participate through clearly structured hashrate plans with transparent pricing, defined service periods, and reliable uptime — without requiring any technical expertise, upfront infrastructure investment, or day-to-day operational involvement. BitFuFu handles the full complexity of mining operations, within a secure, fully compliant framework that implements KYC and AML standards across all applicable jurisdictions.

As of February 2026, BitFuFu held 1,830 BTC on its balance sheet, while managing 26.4 EH/s of total hashrate and 463 MW of power capacity across its global infrastructure. The Company produced 3,662 BTC throughout 2025.

“BitFuFu lowers the barriers to participation in Bitcoin mining while supporting the long-term security and decentralization of the Bitcoin network,” said Steve Johansson, Managing Director, FinTech Breakthrough. “Through its end-to-end platform, combining self-mining operations with customer-facing mining services, BitFuFu contributes directly to the resilience and security of the Bitcoin network while maintaining operational flexibility and democratization at scale. Congratulations on winning ‘Mining Service Provider of the Year’!”
