01Why the desk / Speed, experience, structure

Operators, not brokers.

We run our own fleets, our own facilities, and our own power agreements. When your mandate lands on the desk, it is executed by the people who have been doing this since 2021: fast, structured, and at institutional scale.

Speed to deploy

14–45 days

First call to hashing in weeks, not quarters. Reserved production slots, insured logistics, and expedited rack-and-stack across our US facilities compress timelines that take others a fiscal year.

Vetted, operating since 2021

10,000+ units deployed

Founders who run their own fleets, facilities in five states, and thousands of machines under management. A track record you can diligence, with references, facility tours, and audited documentation available.

Purchase structuring

Entities, banking, documentation

LLCs, trusts, funds, IRAs, and offshore structures closed routinely. We work with banks to validate transactions, including KYC/AML and information verification, and provide your tax counsel with the purchase documentation, invoices, and in-service records they need for Section 179 / bonus depreciation.

Hosting at scale, low-cost power

As low as $0.05/kWh

Industrial capacity reserved in blocks of hundreds to thousands of units, with power rates that protect your margin through the cycle. Custom SLAs, uptime terms, and consolidated reporting.

Containers, sites & wholesale power

Own the infrastructure

Container and site partnerships or outright purchases, with access to wholesale power rates. For allocations that want to own the infrastructure layer, not just the machines, the desk sources, structures, and closes the deal.

02The mandate / What your allocation includes

White-glove, end to end.

Direct founder involvement

Every $1M+ mandate is handled with the founders directly engaged, not routed to an account team. You have their line.

08

Reporting & discretion

Consolidated performance reporting on your schedule, under NDA. Your holdings stay private.

03Security & custody / Your equipment, protected

Institutional custody standards for physical assets.

At this scale, the hardware is the position. It is titled, documented, insured in transit, and physically secured, with the paperwork to prove it at every step.

Insured, chain-of-custody logistics

Specialized carriers, full-value transit insurance, and documented chain of custody from the manufacturer's dock to the rack.

Title & documentation

You receive ownership documentation, invoices, and asset schedules fit for your books and your auditors.

Monitored, access-controlled facilities

24/7 monitoring and restricted physical access across our US facilities. Your fleet is inventoried and auditable.

Your assets, your title, always

Hardware is titled to you or your entity from day one. Hosting is a service agreement, never a claim on your equipment.

04Transaction standards / Built for eight-figure closes

We transact the way your capital expects.

Bank-validated wires or crypto, KYC/AML, entities, NDAs, and diligence-ready paperwork. Transactions of this size are our standard course of business, not an exception we improvise.

Wire or crypto settlement

Purchases settle upfront by bank wire or cryptocurrency. For wires, we work directly with banks to validate the transaction, including KYC/AML, source-of-funds, and information verification, so large transfers clear cleanly.

Entity purchases as standard

LLCs, trusts, funds, IRAs, and offshore structures. We close through entities routinely and coordinate directly with your counsel.

NDA & discretion by default

Institutional inquiries are handled under NDA. Your name, your allocation, and your holdings are never disclosed or marketed.

Clean paperwork, fast diligence

W-9/W-8, proof of inventory, insurance certificates, and facility documentation ready for your compliance and diligence process.

07Questions / What allocators ask first

Asked, answered.

How is a transaction of this size settled?

Purchases are settled upfront by bank wire or cryptocurrency. For wires, we work directly with banks to validate the transaction, including KYC/AML, source-of-funds, and information verification. Either way, you receive an executed contract, inventory assignment, and deployment confirmation.

Who holds title to the hardware?

You do, from day one. Units are titled to you or your entity with full ownership documentation. Hosting is purely a service agreement and never encumbers your equipment.

Is the equipment insured?

Full-value transit insurance is included during logistics. On-site equipment coverage once racked is additional; we can work with your existing insurance provider or help facilitate a policy. Certificates of insurance are available for your diligence.

How fast can capital be deployed?

Typical mandates go from first call to hashing in 14–45 days depending on allocation size and facility selection. Priority production slots compress this further for reserved clients.

What reporting do we receive?

Consolidated fleet performance, production, and uptime reporting on your cadence, monthly or quarterly, formatted for your books, under NDA.

What if we want to exit the position?

Hardware is a titled, transferable asset. The desk assists with secondary placement and resale, and hosting agreements can be assigned to a buyer.

Where does the power come from, and how durable is the rate?

Power sourcing, contract structure, and rate stability vary site by site; grid, behind-the-meter, and PPA-backed arrangements are all in the portfolio. Your advisor walks through the specifics of each candidate facility on your consultation.

What does the hosting rate include, and what SLA applies?

Rate inclusions, uptime terms, and curtailment expectations depend on the facility and the conditions of your order. The exact all-in economics and SLA are laid out per site during your consultation, before you commit.

What happens if a facility closes or we need to relocate?

Your hardware is your titled asset and is never stranded. Hosting agreements address relocation and reassignment, and with facilities in five states the desk can shift a fleet between sites. Specific terms are set in your hosting agreement.

How is Pickaxe compensated?

Transparent pricing, quoted per mandate. Hardware, hosting, and services are itemized in your proposal so you can see exactly what you're paying for. No hidden margins or surprise fees at close.
