Bitdeer Technologies, recognized as a key player in the cryptocurrency mining landscape, has completed a substantial $330 million financing by placing convertible senior notes with a maturity date set for July 1, 2031. These notes bear an interest of 4.875% and offer a conversion price significantly higher than current trading levels, suggesting confidence in the company’s future.
