Cango Inc. Completes Bitcoin Sale to Strengthen Financial Position and Advance AI Transformation

DALLAS, Feb. 9, 2026
DALLAS , Feb. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Cango Inc. (NYSE: CANG) ("Cango" or the "Company"), a leading Bitcoin miner leveraging its global operations to develop an integrated energy and AI compute platform, today announced that, based on a comprehensive assessment of current market conditions and upon approval of the Company's Board of Directors, it completed the sale of 4,451 Bitcoin on the open market during the past weekend, which were settled directly in USDT for aggregate net proceeds of approximately US$305 million in equivalent value. The full amount of the USDT proceeds has been utilized to partially repay a Bitcoin -collateralized loan.
The divestment of a portion of the Company's Bitcoin holdings was executed to strengthen its balance sheet and reduce financial leverage, which provides increased capacity to fund the Company's strategic expansion into AI compute infrastructure.
The Company is executing a strategic pivot by utilizing its globally accessed, grid-connected infrastructure to provide distributed compute capacity for the AI industry. This initiative will be implemented through a phased roadmap, beginning with the deployment of modular, containerized GPU compute nodes across existing sites to rapidly offer inference capacity, particularly targeting the underserved long-tail demand from small and medium enterprises. Cango's asset-light, modular approach is designed to achieve faster deployment timelines compared to traditional data center models, while a subsequent phase will focus on developing a software orchestration platform to unify its distributed compute resources.
To advance its AI business strategy, Cango announced the appointment of Mr. Jack Jin as the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of its AI business line. Mr. Jin is an accomplished technology leader with deep expertise in AI/ML infrastructure, large-scale GPU systems, and scalable computing platforms. Previously at Zoom Communications Inc., he architected and led the deployment of high-performance, multi-node GPU clusters supporting large language model (LLM) inference and fine-tuning. He also developed multi-tenant model training scheduling and GPU orchestration systems that significantly improved resource utilization and elastic on-demand inferencing efficiency. His background in cloud-native infrastructure and high-performance computing aligns closely with Cango's roadmap to build a global distributed inference platform.
Cango's development of AI high-performance computing leverages its established infrastructure capabilities in computing and energy management. The partial divestment of the Company's Bitcoin holding underscores the strategic importance of strengthening the balance sheet to fund new growth initiatives. Cango remains committed to its mining operations, with a continued focus on enhancing mining economics and seeking an optimal balance between hashrate scale and operational efficiency. The Company will be guided by a disciplined framework for asset allocation in pursuit of long-term value creation.
