Cipher Mining (CIFR) Terminates Board Observer Agreement with Bitfury Investors

Cipher and the Bitfury Investors entered the original agreement on April 8, 2022. The deal gave the latter the right to designate a non-voting observer to Cipher Mining’s board of directors and its committees. This observer could attend and participate in board meetings and discussions, but did not have voting rights. Furthermore, the observer rights would automatically expire if Bitfury Investors’ stake dropped below 10% of Cipher Mining’s outstanding shares.

However, since the agreement’s inception, Bitfury Investors had neither designated an observer nor exercised the information rights granted to them. As such, the parties entered into a mutual termination agreement, effective on July 22, 2025.
