For example, on page F-12 of your 10-Q you state &#x201c;the performance obligation of computing power services is fulfilled over time, as opposed to a point in time, because the Company provides the hash computation computing power throughout the day and the customer simultaneously obtains control of it and uses the asset to produce bitcoin.&#x201d; Additionally, you state on page F-12 &#x201c;According to the customer contract, daily earnings are calculated from midnight-to-midnight UTC time.&#x201d; Please advise or revise.</font><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-weight:bold;font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-style:italic;min-width:fit-content;"> </font></p>

However, it appears based on your disclosure that you measure noncash consideration received at midnight UTC the day after contract inception.

The continuous renewal options do not represent material rights because they do not provide the Customer with the right to purchase additional goods or services at a discount. Specifically, the contract is renewed at the same terms, conditions, and rate as the current contract which is consistent with market rates, and there are no upfront or incremental fees in the initial contract. The Company has full control of the mining equipment utilized in the mining pool, and if the Company determines it will increase or decrease the hashrate calculations of its machines and/or fleet (i.e., for repairs or when power costs are excessive) the hashrate provided to the Customer will be increased or reduced.</font><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;min-width:fit-content;">  </font></p>

Although the contract renews continuously throughout the day, and thus the value of the consideration should be assessed continuously throughout the day, the Company has concluded that using the 23:59:59 UTC bitcoin price each day does not result in a materially different outcome.  According to the Customer contract, daily settlements are made to the Company by the Customer based on the hash calculations provided over contract periods and the payout is made at approximately 1:00 AM UTC time, the following day.  There are no other forms of variable considerations, such as discounts, rebates, refunds, credits, price concessions, incentives, performance bonuses, penalties, or other similar items.</font></p>

The amount of bitcoin the Company is entitled to for providing hash calculations to the Customer's mining pool under the FPPS payout method is made up of block rewards and transaction fees less mining pool fees determined as follows:</font></p>

The mining pool fee is only incurred to the extent we perform hash calculations and generate revenue in accordance with the Customer&#x2019;s payout formula during the continuously renewed contract periods beginning mid-night UTC and ending 23:59:59 UTC daily.  This amount represents consideration paid to the Customer and is thus reported as a reduction in revenue.</font></div></div>

There is a single performance obligation (i.e., hash calculations or hashrate) for the contract; therefore, all consideration from the Customer is allocated to this single performance obligation.</font></p>

The performance obligation of hash calculations is fulfilled over time, as opposed to a point in time, because the Company provides the hash calculations throughout the contract period and the customer simultaneously obtains control of it and uses the asset to produce bitcoin.</font></p>
