Hive Blockchain’s stock fell over 20% on Wednesday, following an announcement the company plans to consolidate shares by a 5 to 1 ratio on Tuesday afternoon after market close.
After posting results on their most recent quarter Tuesday, CleanSpark, Riot and Cipher were also down on the markets by -11.93%, -9.16% and -5.23%, respectively.
