Self-mining hash rate target of 21.8 EH/s by end of 2024
Company: Core Scientific
What the later record shows
The date slipped
Self-mining hash rate was 19.1 EH/s at December 31, 2024, short of the 21.8 EH/s target, and it fell to 15.7 EH/s by end of 2025. The 21.8 EH/s in the October 2024 update is total hash rate including hosting, not self-mining.

How we checked this
Checked on November 9, 2026. The cited source supports every part of this claim.
The CEO's quote in the release states both the 19.3 EH/s March figure and the 21.8 EH/s year-end 2024 goal.
Confirmed in the source:
- Core Scientific's energized self-mining hash rate reached 19.3 EH/s in March 2024
- Core Scientific has a goal of reaching 21.8 EH/s by the end of 2024
What we did: Read our cached copy of SEC EDGAR (8-K Ex) (https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1839341/000162828024014962/finalcorzmarchupdatereleas.htm) in full (11,152 characters, retrieved November 8, 2026) and checked each assertion in the claim against it.
