Fortitude surpasses 5 GSol/s of Zcash hashrate as expansion plans grow

The Jaime Leverton-led miner crossed the milestone on October 15 and has Bitmain hardware orders lined up that could more than double its capacity Fortitude Mining Holdings has pushed its Zcash hashrate past 5.0 GSol/s, a milestone the company reached as of October 15, 2026. The goal is ambitious: Fortitude wants to cement its position as the largest vertically integrated Zcash mining platform. The jump came quickly. Earlier in October, the company’s hashrate sat at approximately 4.7 GSol/s. Zcash runs on an algorithm called Equihash, so its hashrate is measured in “solutions per second” rather than the hashes per second Bitcoin miners talk about. A GSol/s is one billion of those solutions every second. Fortitude’s slice of the Zcash pie is already substantial.
