  "account": "BitFuFu Inc. (NASDAQ:FUFU) reported its September 2026 operational results, showing a 4% decrease in bitcoin production from August. The company produced 167 BTC in September, down from 174 BTC in August, while holding 1,388 BTC as of September 30, an increase of 15 BTC from the previous month. Daily production remained steady at 5.6 BTC, with self-mining production rising to 98 BTC from 88 BTC in August, and cloud mining production dropping to 69 BTC from 86 BTC. Total hashrate under management fell to 19.4 EH/s in September, a decline from 20.6 EH/s in August, with self-owned hashrate remaining at 3.8 EH/s. Power capacity managed by the company decreased to 324 MW from 344 MW. The company disclosed issues with a proposed acquisition of an Ethiopian bitcoin mining facility, as the deal is at risk due to contractual disputes with the electric power supplier. BitFuFu has paid $4.1 million to sellers and deployed 13,700 mining machines, but the target company has not remitted disputed amounts, raising concerns about the potential closure of the acquisition on current terms. The company is exploring legal options, including termination of the agreement, arbitration, and recovery of payments and deployed machines.",
