Datacentrex to deploy 500 prepaid miners within 30 days
Datacentrex, Inc., a digital asset mining company trading on NASDAQ (DTCX), has announced plans to deploy 500 prepaid ElphaPex DG2 Scrypt ASIC miners within the next 30 days, according to a press release. The miners were purchased in 2025, requiring no additional capital expenditure. Upon delivery and energization, the deployment will add approximately 9.0 TH/s of Scrypt hashrate, increasing the company's aggregate deployed hashrate to around 52 TH/s, representing a 21% increase.
Currently, Datacentrex operates 3,085 Scrypt ASIC miners, generating a total hash rate of 43.2 TH/s across four US colocation facilities. CEO Parker Scott emphasized the company's consistent strategy of preserving liquidity, protecting the balance sheet, and building its asset base amid a down market, and this deployment aligns with that approach.
The deployment follows recent movement in the Scrypt-mining market, with Dogecoin prices up approximately 32% during the week ending August 21, trading near $0.09 as of August 22. Datacentrex merges-mines Dogecoin and Litecoin under the Scrypt algorithm, with mining revenue directly tied to price movements in these assets. The company is transitioning to sectors such as digital-asset infrastructure, data-center operations, and quantum-computing-adjacent technologies.
