Description: CIFR Cipher Mining November 11, 2025

Cipher Mining Inc. (NASDAQ:CIFR) is a New-York-based company, founded in 2021, that designs, builds, and operates industrial-scale data centers in the United States to mine cryptocurrencies. It trades as a common stock and is listed under the ticker “CIFR.” Although the provided GICS sub-industry cites “Asset Management & Custody Banks,” Cipher’s core business aligns with the “Crypto Mining” segment of the Information Technology sector.

Key operating metrics that analysts watch include its hash-rate capacity (approximately 1.2 exahashes per second as of Q2 2024), power consumption efficiency (around 30 J/TH), and cash balance (roughly $120 million). The company’s revenue is highly sensitive to Bitcoin price movements and U.S. electricity pricing, while regulatory developments around crypto mining and the broader macro-trend of institutional crypto adoption act as primary sector drivers.
