吴说区块链获悉,1月26日晚10时5分,吴忌寒时隔8月再次发布推特,内容为比特大陆两位创始人和解的哈希,结束了自己在比特大陆“2,815天”的工作。
核心内容如下:
1、詹克团从比特大陆贷款4亿美金、从外部筹集2亿美金,收购吴忌寒团队约一半的股份。比特大陆仍有3.27亿美金现金。
2、吴忌寒带走Bitdeer及海外矿场,将担任比特小鹿董事长。
3、吴忌寒团队原风控负责人与财务负责人留在比特大陆董事会直到上市。
4、1月26日比特大陆所有子公司法人开始变更。
内容与比特大陆大分拆启动:詹克团回归 吴忌寒携B池小鹿现金退出(比特大陆系列26)差别不大。
此次分拆的几个后续影响和未来解读如下:
1、比特大陆方面,比特币芯片产能大部分已经销售一空,预计可能开始销售2022年的产能。5nm芯片的质量与良率是一个问号。
2、比特大陆方面,后续以太坊、莱特、DASH、BTM等此前做过的小币种矿机,都可能会陆续启动。但芯片产能不易获取。
3、比特大陆传闻正在招聘新任CFO以筹备上市。按照投资人要求,需要在2022年底前以不低于50亿美金估值上市。这一估值的达到并不容易,取决于比特币价格。
4、吴忌寒方面,硅基任命了新的CEO,总人数200余人,将主要布局云算力(原小鹿)、矿池(原BTC.com)、海外矿场、矿机交易平台、矿机维修等,最终目标是赴美上市。
5、吴忌寒手中拥有金融业务的Matrixport、矿业的比特小鹿(硅基原航)、以及价值数亿的加密货币,未来组建一个VC进行投资,未尝没有可能。
6、吴忌寒方面仍持有部分比特大陆的股份,会任命两名比特大陆的董事,分管财务与审计(大概率是投资人的要求),直到比特大陆成功上市。这可能有助于维持公司上市前的正常运转。
平心而论,双方面对的困难都不小。比特大陆方面能否改善管理,吸取18-19年的失败教训,成功上市;硅基方面,没有比特大陆与蚂蚁矿机的支持,云算力与矿池属于比较拥挤的赛道,能否实现独立造血,最终成功上市,都需要进一步观察。
和解书全文如下:
“关于比特大陆的两位联合创始人之间的和解
比特大陆的两位共同创始人Micree(詹克团)和我之间的分歧终于以友好、更重要的是建设性的方式得以解决。截至今天,我已经辞去了Bitmain首席执行官兼董事长的职务。
Micree以6亿美元的价格购买了Bitsource所拥有的几乎一半的Bitmain股份,Bitsource的代号代表包括我在内的一群创始股东。为了完成股票购买,Micree从Bitmain获得了4亿美元的贷款,同时他承诺从集团外部筹集2亿美元。
截至昨日,Bitmain拥有3.27亿美元的法定现金,这是优先股股东达成此项和解协议所需现金的两倍。短期流动资金缺口为负9,200万美元,公司偿付能力很好。另一方面,Bitmain拥有市场上出售的最好的矿机。因此,Bitmain的财务状况良好且健康,因此向Micree的贷款不会对Bitmain运营的可持续性产生任何负面影响。
同样,根据这一解决方案,Bitdeer今天与美国和挪威的采矿场一起从Bitmain剥离。我将担任Bitdeer的董事长。Matt Kong将担任Bitdeer的首席执行官。Antpool很快将被拆分成由Micree领导的独立公司。
通过上述安排,Bitmain的商业模式将得到高度简化,这将使首次公开募股变得更加容易。投资者更有可能从他们的投资中获利。
从现在开始直到比特大陆上市,比特大陆董事会将由5个席位组成。Micree有权提名三个席位,而我将提名另外两个席位。为了更好地服务于Bitmain的利益,我邀请了两个比我更有能力履行职责的同事。他们是朱翔和刘建春。朱翔是Bitmain创始团队之一,他领导S1和S19的硬件设计,这是Bitmain最为畅销的矿机产品之一。刘建春担任我们的首席财务总监和首席财务官已有5年了。这两名董事会成员将为公司整体利益服务,而不是为任何特定股东的利益。根据公司治理安排,我们将风险控制和内部审计职责分配给了朱翔和刘建春。
作为领导层移交的一部分,所有仍属于Bitmain集团的子公司今天都已开始对董事会成员或法人代表进行变更。
今天和解协议结束后,Bitmain翻开了新的一页,带来了巨大的机遇。作为Bitmain的共同创始人,我在2,815天的旅程中享受了很多工作,在许多客户,同事,朋友和投资者的大力支持下,我为Bitmain及其领导Micree致以最诚挚的祝福。
吴忌寒
英文原文:
Regarding the settlement between Bitmain’s two co-founders
The disagreement between Micree and myself, the two co-founders of Bitmain, has been finally settled in an amicable and, more importantly, a constructive manner. I have resigned from the CEO and Chairman of Bitmain as of today.
Micree purchased almost half of the Bitmain shares owned by Bitsource, which is a code name represents a group of founding shareholders including myself, for US $600m. In order to complete the share purchase, Micree obtained a loan of US $400m from Bitmain while he committed to raise another US $200m from outside of the group.
As of yesterday, Bitmain has US $327m in fiat cash, which was twice higher than what is required by the preferred shareholders in order to close this settlement. The short term liquidity gap is negative US $92m. The negative gap indicates a good solvency of the group. On the other hand, Bitmain has the best mining machines available for sale in the market. As such, the financials of Bitmain is strong and healthy so the loan to Micree will not have any negative impact to the sustainability of Bitmain's operation .
Also pursuant to the settlment, Bitdeer is spun off from Bitmain today together with the mining farm operations in the US and Norway. I will be the chairman of Bitdeer. Matt Kong will be the CEO of Bitdeer. Antpool will soon be spun off into an independent company to be led by Micree.
Through the above-mentioned arrangement, Bitmain's business model will be highly streamlined which will make it much easier to go for an IPO. The B and B+ Round investors also got their number of tripled under this arrangement as compensation of valuation adjustments. It is more likely for those investors to be profitable from their investment.
--From now until the listing of Bitmain, the board of Bitmain will consist of 5 seats. Micree will have the right to nominate three seats and I will nominate the other two. To better serve the interest of Bitmain, I have invited two colleagues who are more capable than myself to perform the duty as directors. They are Xiang Zhu and Jianchun Liu. Xiang was one of Bitmain founding team, and he led the hardware design of S1 and S19, which are among the most import mining rig products of Bitmain. Jianchun has been our chief financial controller and CFO for 5 years. These two board members will serve the interest of the company as a whole but not of the interest of any specific shareholder(s). According to the corporate governance arrangements, we assigned the risk control and internal audit duties to Xiang and Jianchun.
As part of the transition of the leadership, all the subsidiaries that remain to be within the Bitmain group have proceeded to file the change of their board members or legal representatives today.
Upon the closing of the settlement today, Bitmain has turned over a new page with great opportunities ahead. As the co-founder of Bitmain, I enjoyed the 2,815 days of journey working for it with numerous help and support from lots of customers, colleages, friends and investors, and I give my most sincere blessing to Bitmain and its leadership of Micree.
