Accounting Policies [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Nature of Operations | Nature of Operations LM Funding America, Inc. (“we”, “our”, “LMFA” or the “Company”) was formed as a Delaware corporation on April 20, 2015. LMFA is the sole member of several entities including LM Funding, LLC, which was organized in January 2008; US Digital Mining and Hosting Co., LLC, which was formed on September 10, 2021 (“US Digital”); LMFA Financing LLC, formed on November 23, 2020; and LMFAO Sponsor LLC, which was formed on October 29, 2020 (LMFA is a majority member of LMFAO Sponsor LLC). US Digital has created various 100% owned subsidiaries to engage in business in various states in connection with its Bitcoin mining business. The Company also from time to time organizes other subsidiaries to serve a specific purpose or hold a specific asset. Lines of Business The Company currently operates two lines of business: our Bitcoin mining business and our specialty finance business. Our Bitcoin mining operation deploys our computing power to mine Bitcoin on the Bitcoin network. We conduct this business through our wholly owned subsidiary, US Digital, a Florida limited liability company, which we formed in 2021 to develop and operate our Bitcoin mining business. With respect to our specialty finance business, the Company has historically engaged in the business of providing funding to nonprofit community associations primarily located in the state of Florida. We offer incorporated nonprofit community associations, which we refer to as “Associations,” a variety of financial products customized to each Association’s financial needs. Bitcoin Mining Business We obtain Bitcoin as a result of our mining operations, and we sell Bitcoin from time to time, to support our operations and strategic growth. We plan to convert our Bitcoin to U.S. dollars. We may engage in regular trading of Bitcoin or engage in hedging activities related to our holding of Bitcoin. However, our decisions to hold or sell Bitcoin at any given time may be impacted by the Bitcoin market, which has been historically characterized by significant volatility. Currently, we do not use a formula or specific methodology to determine whether or when we will sell Bitcoin that we hold, or the number of Bitcoins we will sell. Rather, decisions to hold or sell Bitcoins are currently determined by management by monitoring the market in real time. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had approximately 5,560 and 5,840 machines respectively, which amounted to operating units capable of producing 606 petahash and 615 petahash, respectively, per second (“EH/s”) of computing power. Specialty Finance Company In our specialty finance business, we purchase an Association’s right to receive a portion of the Association’s collected proceeds from owners that are not paying their assessments. After taking assignment of an Association’s right to receive a portion of the Association’s proceeds from the collection of delinquent assessments, we engage law firms to perform collection work on a deferred billing basis wherein the law firms receive payment upon collection from the account debtors or a predetermined contracted amount if payment from account debtors is less than legal fees and costs owed. Under this business model, we typically fund an amount equal to or less than the statutory minimum an Association could recover on a delinquent account for each Account, which we refer to as the “Super Lien Amount”. Upon collection of an Account, the law firm working on the Account, on behalf of the Association, generally distributes to us the funded amount, interest, and administrative late fees, with the law firm retaining legal fees and costs collected, and the Association retaining the balance of the collection. In connection with this line of business, we have developed proprietary software for servicing Accounts, which we believe enables law firms to service Accounts efficiently and profitably. Our original product offering consists of providing funding to Associations by purchasing their rights under delinquent accounts that are selected by the Associations arising from unpaid Association assessments. Historically, we provided funding against such delinquent accounts, which we refer to as “Accounts,” in exchange for a portion of the proceeds collected by the Associations from the account debtors on the Accounts. In addition to our original product offering, we also purchase Accounts on varying terms tailored to suit each Association’s financial needs, including under our New Neighbor Guaranty program. |

Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LMFA and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: LM Funding, LLC; REO Management Holdings, LLC (including all 100% owned subsidiary limited liability companies); LM Funding of Colorado, LLC; LM Funding of Washington, LLC; LM Funding of Illinois, LLC; US Digital (includes all 100% owned subsidiary limited liability companies) and various single purpose limited liability corporations owned by REO Management Holdings, LLC which own various properties. The consolidated financial statements also include LMFA Sponsor LLC (a 69.5% owned subsidiary). All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. The interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2025 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively, are unaudited. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to provide a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Recently adopted/issued accounting pronouncements | Recently adopted accounting pronouncements In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-08, Intangible - Goodwill and Other -Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60) (“ASC 350-60”). ASC 350-60 requires entities with certain crypto assets to subsequently measure such assets at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in net income in each reporting period. In addition, entities are required to provide additional disclosures about the holdings of certain crypto assets. Crypto assets that meet all the following criteria are within the scope of the ASC 350-60: (1) meet the definition of intangible assets as defined in the Codification (2) do not provide the asset holder with enforceable rights to or claims on underlying goods, services, or other assets (3) are created or reside on a distributed ledger based on blockchain or similar technology (4) are secured through cryptography (5) are fungible, and (6) are not created or issued by the reporting entity or its related parties. Bitcoin, which is the sole crypto asset mined by the Company, meets each of these criteria. For all entities, the ASC 350-60 amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued (or made available for issuance). If an entity adopts the amendments in an interim period, it must adopt them as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company elected to early adopt the new guidance effective January 1, 2024 resulting in a $614 thousand cumulative-effect change to adjust the Company's Bitcoin held on January 1, 2024 with the corresponding entry to beginning accumulated deficit. There were no other new accounting pronouncements adopted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 that were determined to have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Recently issued accounting pronouncements In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires public business entities to provide additional disclosures in the notes to financial statements, disaggregating specific expense categories within relevant income statement captions. The prescribed categories include purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, and depreciation, depletion, and amortization related to oil-and-gas producing activities. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its financial statement disclosures. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options: Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments (“ASU 2024-04”), which clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion or extinguishments of convertible debt. ASU 2024-04 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires more detailed income tax disclosures. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the standard. |

Segment and Reporting Unit Information | Segment and Reporting Unit Information Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which discrete financial information is available that is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company comprise the CODM, as a group. The Company has two operating segments as of June 30, 2025, which we refer to as Specialty Finance and Mining Operations. Our corporate oversight function and other components that may earn revenues that are only incidental to the activities of the Company are aggregated and included in the “All Other” category. Refer to Note 10 - Segment Information. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Reclassification | Reclassification Certain prior period immaterial amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Revision to previously issued financial statements | Revision to previously issued financial statements As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, during the period ended December 31, 2024, the Company identified errors in relation to the accounting for the change in depreciation life for the Bitcoin miners which had an impact on net property, plant and equipment and depreciation expense of approximately $449,800 as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2024, approximately $464,300 and $914,100 as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and approximately $413,800 and $1,328,000 as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The errors were determined to be immaterial on a qualitative and quantitative basis and were corrected during the three months ended December 31, 2024. The Company has revised the presentation in our previously issued unaudited consolidated interim financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and adjusted the disclosures included within Note 3 - Fixed Assets and Intangible Assets, net to reflect the correction of the error. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Liquidity | Liquidity The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern basis of presentation assumes that the Company will continue in operation one year after the date these financial statements are issued and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The evaluation of going concern under the accounting guidance requires significant judgment which involves the Company to consider that it has historically incurred losses in recent years as it has prepared to grow its business through expansion and acquisition opportunities. The Company must also consider its current liquidity as well as future market and economic conditions that may be deemed outside the control of the Company as it relates to obtaining financing and generating future profits. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $354 thousand available cash on-hand and Bitcoin with a fair market value of $16.7 million (of which $5.0 million is pledged as collateral against outstanding borrowings and classified within “Digital assets - long-term” on the consolidated balance sheets). After considering its current liquidity and future market and economic conditions, the Company has concluded there is no substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates include the evaluation of probable losses on balances due from third parties, the realization of deferred tax assets, the evaluation of contingent losses related to litigation and reserves on notes receivables. Our estimates may change, however, as new events occur and additional information is obtained, and any such changes will be recognized in the consolidated financial statements. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Cash | Cash The Company maintains cash balances at several financial institutions that are insured under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s (“FDIC”) Transition Account Guarantee Program. Balances with the financial institutions may exceed federally insured limits. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 we have nil and $2.3 million of cash in various institutions that exceed the FDIC or SIPC insurance coverage limit of $250,000. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Digital Assets | Digital Assets Bitcoin are included in current assets in the consolidated balance sheets due to the Company’s ability to sell Bitcoin in a highly liquid marketplace and such Bitcoin holdings are expected to be realized in cash or sold or consumed during the normal operating cycle of the Company. As a result of adopting ASC 350-60 on January 1, 2024, Bitcoin is measured at fair value as of each reporting period. The fair value of Bitcoin is measured using the period-end closing Bitcoin price from its principal market in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. Since Bitcoin is traded on a 24-hour period, the Company utilizes the price as of at fair value at 23:59:59 UTC time, which aligns with the Company's revenue recognition cut-off. The decrease (increase) in fair value from each reporting period is reflected on the consolidated statements of operations as “Loss (gain) on fair value of Bitcoin, net”. The Company sells Bitcoin and such gains and losses from such transactions are measured as the difference between the cash proceeds and the carrying basis of Bitcoin as determined on a First In-First Out basis and are recorded within “Loss (gain) on fair value of Bitcoin, net”. Bitcoin, which is non-cash consideration earned by the Company through its mining activities, are included as a reconciling item as a cash outflow within operating activities on the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows. The cash proceeds from the sales of Bitcoin are classified based on the holding period in which the Bitcoin are held. ASC 350-60 specifies that Bitcoin converted nearly immediately into cash would qualify as cash flows from operating activities and all other sales would qualify as investing activities. The Company evaluates its sales of Bitcoin and will record Bitcoin sold nearly immediately as operating cash flows and the remainder will be recorded as investing activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, all proceeds from Bitcoin sales were classified as investing activities. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Investment in Securities | Investment in Securities Investment in securities includes investments in common stocks. Investments in securities are reported at fair value with changes in unrecognized gains or losses included in other income within the consolidated statements of operations. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments FASB ASC 825-10, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Fixed Assets | Fixed Assets The Company capitalizes all acquisitions of fixed assets in excess of $500. Fixed assets are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. State and local use tax for equipment shipped from overseas is generally accrued on a quarterly basis at the time equipment is placed in service and is paid to the state in which the equipment is being utilized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets and commences once the assets are ready for their intended use. Fixed assets are comprised of furniture, computer, office equipment, buildings and mining machines with assigned useful lives of 3 to 30 years. The Company classifies mining machine deposit payments within “Deposits on mining equipment” in the consolidated balance sheets. As mining machines are received, the respective cost of the mining machines plus the related shipping and customs fees are reclassified from “Deposits on mining equipment” to “Fixed assets, net” in the consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 4 - Deposits on Mining Equipment and Hosting Services. The Company operates in an emerging industry for which limited data is available to make estimates of the useful economic lives of mining machines. To the extent that any of the assumptions underlying management’s estimate of useful life of its mining machines are subject to revision in a future reporting period, either as a result of changes in circumstances or through the availability of greater quantities of data, then the estimated useful life could change and have a prospective impact on depreciation expense and the carrying amounts of these assets. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Equipment Purchases | Equipment Purchases We purchased 270 S21+ Bitmain machines in December 2024 for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1.0 million, net of coupons and credits. The machines were delivered in April 2025 and were subsequently sold for approximately $1.0 million in May 2025. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Right to Use Assets | Right to Use Assets The Company capitalizes all leased assets pursuant to ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liability, initially measured at present value of the lease payments, on its balance sheet for leases with terms longer than 12 months and classified as either financing or operating leases. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, right to use assets, net of accumulated amortization, was $0.8 million and $0.9 million, respectively. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets |
Management reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment amount is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. There was no impairment recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, and nil and $1.2 million impairment loss was recorded on fixed assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. Refer to Note 3 - Fixed Assets and Intangible Assets, net. |

Revenue recognition - Bitcoin Mining and Speciality Finance | Revenue Recognition – Bitcoin Mining Our accounting policy on revenue recognition for our Bitcoin mining segment is provided below. Step 1: The Company enters into a contract with a Bitcoin mining pool operator (i.e., the customer) to provide hash calculations to the mining pools. The contract is terminable at any time by either party and thus the contract term is shorter than a 24-hour period and the contracts are continuously renewed. The Company provides services solely for Bitcoin mining and the fees charged during the year ended December 31, 2024 by the customer were approximately 0.5% of the total daily Bitcoin mined. Applying the criteria per ASC 606-10-25-1, the contract arises at the point that the Company provides hash calculations to the customer, which is considered at contract inception, because customer consumption is in tandem with daily earnings of delivery of the computing power. Step 2: In order to identify the performance obligations in a contract with a customer, the Company must assess the promised goods or services in the contract and identify each promised good or service that is distinct. A performance obligation meets ASC 606’s definition of a “distinct” good or service (or bundle of goods or services) if both of the following criteria are met: • The customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer (i.e., the good or service is capable of being distinct); and • The entity’s promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract (i.e., the promise to transfer the good or service is distinct within the context of the contract).
Based on these criteria, the Company has a single performance obligation in providing hash calculations to the customer. The continuous renewal options do not represent material rights because they do not provide the customer with the right to purchase additional goods or services at a discount. Specifically, the contract is renewed at the same terms, conditions, and rate as the current contract which is consistent with market rates, and there are no upfront or incremental fees in the initial contract. The Company has full control of the mining equipment utilized in the mining pool and if the Company determines it will increase or decrease the processing power of its machines and/or fleet (i.e., for repairs or when power costs are excessive) the computing power provided to the customer will be reduced.
Step 3: The transaction consideration the Company earns is non-cash consideration in the form of Bitcoin, which the Company measures at fair value at 23:59:59 UTC on the date of contract inception using the Company's principal market for Bitcoin. Although the contract renews continuously throughout the day, and thus the value of the consideration should be assessed continuously throughout the day, the Company has concluded that using the 23:59:59 UTC Bitcoin price each day does not result in a materially different outcome. According to the Customer contract, daily settlements are made to the Company by the Customer based on the hash calculations provided over contract periods and the payout is made the following day. When participating in ratable share pools, in exchange for providing hash calculations the Company is entitled to a fractional share of the Bitcoin award the Customer receives for successfully adding a block to the blockchain, plus a fractional share of the transaction fees attached to that blockchain. The Company’s fractional share is based on the proportion of hash calculations the Company contributed to the Customer compared to the total hash calculations contributed by all mining pool participants in solving the current algorithm. When participating in a Full Pay Per Share (“FPPS”) mining pool, in exchange for providing hash calculations to the pool the Company is entitled to compensation, calculated on a daily basis, at an amount that approximates the total Bitcoin that could have been mined using the Company’s hash calculations, calculated on a look-back basis across previous blocks using the pools hash rate index. The transaction consideration the Company earns is variable since it is dependent on the daily computing power provided by the Company under the FPPS model and total Bitcoin earned by the under the ratable share model. There are no other forms of variable considerations, such as discounts, rebates, refunds, credits, price concessions, incentives, performance bonuses, penalties, or other similar items. The sum of the block reward and transaction fees earned by the Company is reduced by mining pool fees charged by the Customer for operating the mining pool based on a rate schedule per the mining pool contract. The mining pool fee is only incurred to the extent we perform hash calculations and generate revenue in accordance with the customer’s payout formula during the continuously renewed contract periods beginning mid-night UTC and ending 23:59:59 UTC daily. This amount represents consideration paid to the customer and is thus reported as a reduction in revenue.
Step 4: The transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation upon verification for the provision of hash calculations to the customer, and total Bitcoin rewards earned by the pool, when applicable under a ratable share model. There is a single performance obligation (i.e., hashrate) for the contract; therefore, all consideration from the customer is allocated to this single performance obligation.
Step 5: The Company’s performance is complete in transferring the hash calculations over-time to the customer and the customer obtains control of the contributed hashrate. The performance obligation of hash calculations is fulfilled over time, as opposed to a point in time, because the Company provides the hash calculations throughout the contract period and the customer simultaneously obtains control of it and uses the asset to produce Bitcoin. There are no deferred revenues or other liability obligations recorded by the Company since there are no payments in advance of the performance. Bitcoin earned by the Company through its mining activities are included within operating activities on the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows. Revenue Recognition - Specialty Finance FASB ASC 606 states an entity needs to conclude at the inception of the contract that collectability of the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the goods and services that will be transferred to the customer is probable. That is, in some circumstances, an entity may not need to assess its ability to collect all of the consideration in the contract. The Company provides funding to Associations by purchasing their rights under delinquent accounts from unpaid Association assessments due from property owners. Collections on the Accounts may vary greatly in both the timing and amount ultimately recovered compared with the total revenues earned on the Accounts because of a variety of economic and social factors affecting the real estate environment in general. The Company’s contracts with its specialty finance customers have very specific performance obligations. The Company has determined that the known amount of cash to be realized or realizable on its revenue generating activities cannot be reasonably estimate and as such, classifies its finance receivables as nonaccrual and recognizes revenues in the accompanying statements of income on the cash basis or cost recovery method in accordance with ASC 310-10, Receivables. The Company’s operations also consist of rental revenue earned from tenants under leasing arrangements which provide for rent income. The leases have been accounted for as operating leases. For operating leases, revenue is recorded based on cash rental payments was collected during the period. The Company analyzed its remaining revenue streams and concluded there were no changes in revenue recognition with the adoption of the new standard. Under ASC 606, the Company applies the cash basis method to its original product and the cost recovery method to its special product as follows: Finance Receivables—Original Product: Under the Company’s original product, delinquent assessments are funded only up to the Super Lien Amount as discussed above. Recoverability of funded amounts is generally assured because of the protection of the Super Lien Amount. As such, payments by unit owners on the Company’s original product are recorded to income when received in accordance with the provisions of the Florida Statutes (Section 718.116(3)) and the provisions of the purchase agreements entered into between the Company and Associations. Those provisions require that all payments be applied in the following order: first to interest, then to late fees, then to costs of collection, then to legal fees expended by the Company and then to assessments owed. In accordance with the cash basis method of recognizing revenue and the provisions of the statute, the Company records revenues for interest and late fees when cash is received. In the event the Company determines the ultimate collectability of amounts funded under its original product are in doubt, payments are applied to first reduce the funded or principal amount. Finance Receivables—Special Product (New Neighbor Guaranty program): During 2012, the Company began offering Associations an alternative product under the New Neighbor Guaranty program whereby the Company will fund amounts in excess of the Super Lien Amount. Under this special product, the Company purchases substantially all of the delinquent assessments owed to the Association, in addition to all accrued interest and late fees, in exchange for payment by the Company of (i) a negotiated amount or (ii) on a going forward basis, all monthly assessments due for a period up to 48 months. Under these arrangements, the Company considers the collection of amounts funded is not assured and under the cost recovery method, cash collected is applied to first reduce the carrying value of the funded or principal amount with any remaining proceeds applied next to interest, late fees, legal fees, collection costs and any amounts due to the Association. Any excess proceeds still remaining are recognized as revenues. If the future proceeds collected are lower than the Company’s funded or principal amount, then a loss is recognized. Net Commission Revenue: The Company acts as an agent in providing health travel insurance policies. As a result, the Company revenue is recorded at net. The Company has determined that the known amount of cash to be realized or realizable on its revenue generating activities can be reasonably estimated and as such, classifies its receivables as accrual and recognizes revenues in the accompanying statements of income on the accrual basis. If a policy is not effective as of the end of a period, then the associated revenue and underwriting costs are deferred until the effective date. The majority of the commission revenue is underwritten by two policy underwriters who pays the Company commissions. |

Cost of Revenues | Cost of Revenues - Digital Assets The Company includes energy costs and external co-location mining hosting fees in cost of revenues. Depreciation of mining machines is included within “Depreciation and amortization” in the consolidated statements of operations. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Curtailment and Energy Sales | Curtailment and Energy Sales For our Oklahoma mining site, the energy costs are incurred at market price with no power purchase agreements for a fixed future rate. The Company has a Will Serve agreement with the local energy company that provides credits based on amount of electricity provided and based on reducing power consumption upon peak demand times. The Company utilizes a third-party broker to facilitate our participation in demand response programs offered by the Southwest Power Pool (“SPP”), a regional transmission organization that manages the electric grid and wholesale power for the central United States. The broker analyzes our forecasted power consumption, market value of Bitcoin and day-ahead energy prices to determine whether our estimated mining revenues will exceed the energy cost incurred by the Company to operate our mining equipment (“breakeven price”) for each hour of the following day. If our estimated revenues are predicted to fall below the breakeven price, our power will be curtailed, and we will receive compensation from the SPP in exchange for supplying our power to the grid (“Energy Sales”). If estimated revenue is above the breakeven price, the Company receives compensation for pledging our estimated power usage as available for curtailment in the event SPP needs to adjust load for grid balancing (“Curtailment”). We received $223 thousand and $373 thousand of compensation related to curtailment and energy sales during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 which is recorded as “Curtailment and energy sales” in the consolidated statement of operations. There were no curtailment and energy sales in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Utility Deposit Bond | Utility Deposit Bond In lieu of maintaining a cash utility deposit with the energy provider for our Oklahoma mining site, we purchased a utility deposit bond which guarantees that the energy provider would receive payment from the third party surety up to an amount of $717 thousand in the event the Company defaults on utility charges. The Company pays an annual premium of $14 thousand for the utility deposit bond and the cost of the bond is amortized ratably over the twelve month coverage period. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Hosting Contracts | Hosting Contracts On May 6, 2024, the Company entered into a hosting agreement (the “Arthur Hosting Agreement”) with Tech Infrastructure JV I LLC (“Tech Infrastructure”) pursuant to which Tech Infrastructure agreed to host approximately 3,000 of the Company's Bitcoin Miner S19J Pro machines at a secure location and provide power, maintenance and other services specified in the contract with a term of nine months. On July 17, 2024, the Company amended the contract to extend the contract for an additional month. On December 6, 2024, US Digital completed the previously announced acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of the hosting facility located in Oklahoma, and the Arthur Hosting Agreement was subsequently terminated. Following the completion of the Acquisition, the Company continues to operate the hosting site under its own management. On September 5, 2022, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary US Digital, entered into a hosting agreement (the “Core Hosting Agreement”) with Core Scientific Inc. (“Core”) pursuant to which Core, under various additional orders, agreed to host approximately 3,000 of the Company's Bitcoin miner machines at a secure location and provide power, maintenance and other services specified in the contract with a term of one year, with automatic renewals unless either party notifies the other party in writing not less than ninety (90) calendar days before such renewal of its desire for the order not to renew unless terminated sooner pursuant to the terms of the Core Hosting Agreement. The Company entered into a number of amendments in 2023 and 2024 that resulted in Core hosting a total of approximately 4,870 miners as of June 30, 2024. Pursuant to the terms of the amended Core Hosting Agreement, the terms of the hosting agreement expired with respect to approximately 4,000 miners on May 31, 2024 while the terms of the hosting arrangement continued with respect to approximately 800 miners through December 31, 2024. Beginning January 1, 2025, the Core Hosting Agreement was renewed on a month-to-month basis through April 30, 2025. The agreement is now terminated and the machines were moved to our Oklahoma site. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Coupon Sales | Coupon Sales From time to time the Company receives coupons from Bitmain to incentivize purchases of equipment. Coupons have a stated face value in dollars and can be applied against future invoices for purchased machines. Coupons are transferable and there are not restrictions on the sale to third parties. Occasionally, the Company sells coupons to third parties in exchange for cash consideration or digital assets. As there is currently no active market for the buying and selling of Bitmain coupons, the Company has determined that the fair value of coupons received is nil at the time of receipt therefore revenue associated with the sale of such coupons is not recognized until the sale transaction has been completed and consideration has been received from the third party. The Company sold nil Bitmain coupons in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and nil and $4 thousand, respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 which was recognized as other income within “Other income - coupon sales” in the consolidated statements of operations. |

Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Company records all equity-based incentive grants to employees and non-employee members of the Company’s Board of Directors in operating expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations based on their fair values determined on the date of grant. Stock-based compensation expense, reduced for estimated forfeitures, is recognized over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting term of the outstanding equity awards. The expense attribution method is straight-line or accelerated graded-vesting depending on the nature of the award. |

Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company’s calculation of its tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations in various taxing jurisdictions. The Company recognizes tax liabilities for uncertain tax positions based on management’s estimate of whether it is more likely than not that additional taxes will be required. The Company had no uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Deferred income taxes are recognized in the consolidated financial statements for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates. Temporary differences arise from net operating losses, differences in depreciation methods of archived images, and property and equipment, stock-based and other compensation, and other accrued expenses. A valuation allowance is established when it is determined that it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The application of tax laws and regulations is subject to legal and factual interpretation, judgment and uncertainty. Tax laws and regulations themselves are subject to change as a result of changes in fiscal policy, changes in legislation, the evolution of regulations and court rulings. Therefore, the actual liability for U.S., or the various state jurisdictions, may be materially different from managements estimates, which could result in the need to record additional tax liabilities or potentially reverse previously recorded tax liabilities. Interest and penalties are included in tax expense. Income tax expense/(benefit) from operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was nil in each period, which resulted primarily from maintaining a full valuation allowance against the Company's deferred tax assets. |

Income (Loss) Per Share | Income (Loss) Per Share Basic income (loss) per share is calculated as net income (loss) to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Refer to Note 8 - Stockholders' Equity. The Company issued nil and nil restricted shares during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

Diluted income (loss) per share for the periods equal to basic income (loss) per share as the effect of any convertible notes, stock-based compensation awards, stock warrants, and warrant repricing would be anti-dilutive. The anti-dilutive stock-based compensation awards consisted of:

Risks and Uncertainties | Risks and Uncertainties Funding amounts are secured by a priority lien position provided under Florida law (see discussion above regarding Florida Statutes, Section 718.116). However, in the event the first mortgage holder takes title to the property, the amount payable by the mortgagee to satisfy the priority lien is capped under this same statute and would generally only be sufficient to reimburse the Company for funding amounts noted above for delinquent assessments. Amounts paid by the mortgagee would not generally reimburse the Company for interest, administrative late fees and collection costs. Even though the Company does not recognize these charges as revenues until collected, its business model and long-term viability is dependent on its ability to collect these charges. In the event a delinquent unit owner files for bankruptcy protection, the Company may at its option be reimbursed by the Association for the amounts funded (i.e., purchase price) and all collection rights are re-assigned to the Association. |
