Bit Mining Stock Price, News & Analysis

BIT Mining Limited (NYSE: BTCM) is described in its public communications as a technology-driven cryptocurrency asset and infrastructure company. According to its press releases, the company has expanded from a foundation in cryptocurrency mining into broader blockchain activities, including Solana ("SOL") treasury operations, staking, and ecosystem development. Its legacy capabilities include 7nm ASIC design, data center operations, and mining machine manufacturing, which it states are being repurposed to support its evolving strategy.

In multiple announcements, BIT Mining notes that it is strategically transitioning its core business toward SOL treasury operations and building an integrated ecosystem centered on SOL staking and ecosystem development. The company highlights that it leverages blockchain infrastructure expertise to optimize treasury efficiency and to support a shift toward what it describes as sustainable value creation.

Business activities and operations

BIT Mining reports that it operates self-mining businesses for cryptocurrencies such as BTC, DOGE and LTC, and that it runs data center operations. In its financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2025, the company states that revenues were mainly comprised of self-mining revenue and data center service fees, with the latter associated with an 82.5 megawatt space at an Ohio mining site. It also discloses that it has acquired and operates cryptocurrency mining data centers and Bitcoin mining machines in Ethiopia, with total power capacity of 51 megawatts following a two-phase acquisition.

The company’s disclosures describe its self-mining operations in terms of hash rate capacity for DOGE/LTC and BTC mining machines, and the production of DOGE, LTC and BTC over the reporting period. It also reports that it generates hosting and service fee revenue from its data center business, and that its cost of revenue is driven by electricity costs, hosting arrangements and depreciation and amortization.

Strategic transition toward the Solana ecosystem

BIT Mining has publicly stated that it is strategically transitioning its core business toward Solana treasury operations. In a series of press releases and related Form 6-K filings, the company describes a plan to build an integrated ecosystem centered on SOL staking and ecosystem development. It reports the launch of its first Solana validator operated by its internal infrastructure team, and indicates that it is staking self-acquired SOL through this validator to contribute to network decentralization and security while generating on-chain rewards.

The company further reports purchases of SOL to build a SOL treasury and notes that it is actively exploring additional opportunities across the Solana ecosystem. It characterizes this activity as part of a broader effort to participate in Solana’s on-chain economy, combining treasury holdings with validator operations.

Stablecoin and AI-focused initiatives

In its August 26, 2025 press release, BIT Mining announces the launch of DOLAI, a U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin on the Solana blockchain. The company describes DOLAI as a compliant, institutional-grade stablecoin introduced in collaboration with Brale Inc., with reserves held in cash and short-term U.S. Treasuries and infrastructure that incorporates AML/KYC and OFAC screening. According to the same release, DOLAI is intended to connect AI agents, merchants, consumers and institutional finance on Solana’s blockchain, with planned multi-chain interoperability and integration with emerging AI payment protocols.

BIT Mining characterizes DOLAI as an AI-native payment currency designed for use cases such as commerce, consumer payments, institutional and cross-border settlements, and Web3 applications. It also mentions potential connections to tokenized real-world asset platforms through partnerships, while emphasizing compliance with existing U.S. regulatory requirements as described in the press release.

Mining and data center footprint

In its financial results release for the six months ended June 30, 2025, the company provides detail on its mining and data center operations. It reports DOGE/LTC mining hash rate capacity, BTC mining hash rate capacity, and production volumes of DOGE, LTC and BTC for the period. The company explains that revenue from self-mining is affected by network computing power, cryptocurrency prices and machine uptime, and that data center revenue reflects service fees for hosting and related services.

The same release notes that BIT Mining operates an 82.5 megawatt space at an Ohio mining site and that it completed an acquisition of cryptocurrency mining data centers and Bitcoin mining machines in Ethiopia, with total power capacity of 51 megawatts after the second phase of the transaction. It attributes changes in cost of revenue to factors such as electricity prices, hosting fee arrangements and termination of cooperation with a third-party data center.

Corporate evolution and rebranding to SOLAI Limited

In a sequence of announcements in August, October and October 2025, BIT Mining discloses that its board resolved to change the company’s English name to "SOLAI Limited" and its ticker symbol from BTCM to SLAI, subject to shareholder approval. A press release dated October 10, 2025 states that shareholders approved the English name change at an extraordinary general meeting, and a subsequent release dated October 20, 2025 reports that the company’s American Depositary Shares would begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the new name "SOLAI Limited" and ticker symbol "SLAI" effective at the opening of trading on October 20, 2025.

In these communications, the company describes the rebrand from BIT Mining to SOLAI as reflecting a strategic shift from a pure-play crypto mining business to a technology enterprise at the intersection of artificial intelligence and blockchain. It states that it aims to build on-chain intelligent financial infrastructure, beginning with the Solana ecosystem and with the intention of expanding to other blockchain platforms.

Relationship between BTCM and SOLAI Limited

Later communications, including a press release dated October 21, 2025, refer to SOLAI Limited (previously known as BIT Mining Limited) and note that the company previously traded under the ticker BTCM and now trades under SLAI. These disclosures indicate that BTCM represents the historical ticker symbol for the company prior to the name and ticker change to SOLAI Limited and SLAI.

Regulatory reporting and status

BIT Mining and, following the name change, SOLAI Limited file reports on Form 6-K as foreign private issuers under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The 6-K filings listed in the input include press releases regarding the company’s strategic shift into the Solana ecosystem, SOL purchases and validator launch, the DOLAI stablecoin, the attempted and completed rebranding to SOLAI, and an extraordinary general meeting and related proxy materials. The filings also reference the company’s registration statement on Form F-3 and its use of incorporation by reference.

Historical context

Prior to its current focus as described above, the company’s older description (under the name 500.com) characterized it as an online sports lottery service provider in China. That legacy description notes that it acted as an aggregator and processor of lottery purchase orders and derived revenue from service fees paid by provincial sports lottery administration centers. More recent disclosures, however, consistently describe the company as a cryptocurrency asset and infrastructure company with mining, data center, Solana ecosystem and AI-integrated stablecoin activities, and as transitioning under the SOLAI Limited brand.
