SINGAPORE, April 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BGIN BLOCKCHAIN LIMITED (the “Company”; NASDAQ: BGIN), a digital asset technology company with proprietary cryptocurrency mining technologies and a manufacturer of cryptocurrency mining hardware, today announced the successful resolution of a series of disputes involving its US subsidiary, BGIN Infrastructure, LLC (“BGIN”), and Mawson Hosting, LLC (“Mawson”), the landlord of BGIN’s former hosting service provider, Krypton Technologies, LLC (“Krypton”). As part of a confidential settlement agreement BGIN has recovered all of its mining machines.
The dispute stemmed from a Hosting Services Agreement dated June 14, 2024, between BGIN and Krypton, under which Krypton agreed to operate approximately 5,325 BGIN-owned mining machines. When Krypton ultimately defaulted on its obligations to its landlord, Mawson, the mining machines were seized by Mawson. Contemporaneously, BGIN provided written notice to Krypton terminating the Hosting Services Agreement and demanded the return of its mining machines; however, Krypton was unable to return the mining machines because they were in Mawson’s possession at that time.
On March 31, 2025, BGIN filed a complaint against Mawson in Beaver County, Pennsylvania, seeking the return of the mining machines and damages resulting from Mawson’s actions. On June 2, 2025, Mawson filed a third-party complaint against Krypton, asserting claims arising out of an agreement between Mawson and Krypton. After several months of litigation, as part of a confidential settlement agreement, Mawson agreed to return, and has since returned, the mining machines to BGIN.
