Compass Mining Teams Up with Cathedra to Enhance Bitcoin Mining Operations

Ten megawatts (MW) of Bitcoin mining capacity will be co-located in Kentucky by Compass Mining, a pioneer in Bitcoin mining hardware, hosting, and services, in collaboration with Cathedra Bitcoin. Compass will take another step in its strategic growth with this partnership, which will allow it to increase its operational reach and provide clients with more stability.

In accordance with this arrangement, Compass will manage pass-through power expenses, supervise mining operations at Cathedra’s plant, and split mining profits with Cathedra. Beyond the initial 10 MW, both organizations hope to extend their relationship to other locations.

Expanding Power Capacity and Regional Presence

Compass has actively broadened its footprint across multiple states. In 2024 alone, it has energized over 50 MW of power at sites in Iowa, Indiana, Kentucky, Nebraska, Ohio, and Texas. Recently, Compass energized 4,000 mining machines in Iowa and 2,400 units in Nebraska, with plans to add another 20 MW of capacity by year-end.

Compass’s CEO, Paul Gosker, highlighted the partnership’s strategic advantage: “The Kentucky data center meets Compass’s high uptime and reliability standards for all its partner sites, and the location offers a stable power grid and favorable regulatory environment. By leveraging Cathedra’s infrastructure, we will have even greater flexibility and control over our Bitcoin mining services.”

This collaboration supports Compass’s mission to make Bitcoin mining accessible, reliable, and efficient. Whether clients host their equipment at Compass’s facilities or purchase hardware through its platform, they benefit from a well-managed network of energy-efficient mining sites. With its extensive geographic presence, Compass ensures clients have diverse power market options, maximizing mining stability and profitability.

Gosker emphasized Compass’s commitment to quality services: “Our goal has always been to make Bitcoin mining accessible for everyone, regardless of size or expertise. With our continued growth, both new and existing customers can trust Compass to deliver world-class mining services backed by our growing expertise, and the infrastructure required to succeed.”

Drew Armstrong, Cathedra’s President and COO, echoed this enthusiasm, stating, “We are very excited to be working with Compass Mining, a company that has demonstrated their ability to mine bitcoin at scale through multiple market cycles.”

This partnership signals a strong push for reliable, scalable Bitcoin mining solutions tailored to an ever-evolving market.
