Event summary

- The special resolution for redomiciliation will be voted on at a shareholder meeting on March 20, 2026.
- The redomiciliation aims to transition Bitfarms from an international Bitcoin miner to a North American digital infrastructure and energy company, Keel Infrastructure.

The big picture
Bitfarms’ move to redomicile in the U.S. reflects a broader trend of cryptocurrency companies seeking greater access to U.S. capital markets and a more favorable regulatory environment. The shift also signals a strategic pivot away from pure Bitcoin mining towards a more diversified digital infrastructure model, aligning with the growing demand for high-performance computing resources. ISS’s endorsement significantly increases the likelihood of shareholder approval, but the long-term success hinges on the company’s ability to execute its new strategy and realize the promised benefits.
