Agreement period, description On May 20, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with a third-party consultant whereby the consultant would advise and consult with the Company on certain business and financial matters relating to crypto-currency mining. The Company engaged the consultant to: (1) assist in locating at least 5 acres of real property in Georgia within close proximity to a fully operational electric substation with a minimum of 15 MW of available capacity, subject to approval by the power company, (2) negotiate a power rate between the Company and a power company, (3) assist in the identification, purchase, and delivery of transformers required to serve the containerized mining systems, (4) successfully install the aforementioned transformers, and (5) obtain an electrical permit and successful inspection of all electrical infrastructure between the container and substation. The consulting agreement was valued at $400, payable upon successful achievement of defined milestones. As of June 30, 2019, $200 in milestone achievement was earned and has been recorded as a component of general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. The remaining $200 of unearned milestones is recorded as a prepaid expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet and is being held in escrow until achievement of such milestones.     On October 23, 2018, the Company entered into a hosting agreement ("Colorado Hosting Agreement") with a hosting facility in Colorado, whereby the service provider will provide a facility to host Bitcoin computing servers. The Colorado Hosting Agreement has been amended several times and currently provides for the hosting of 1,260 miners, a reduction of a security deposit from $204 to $85 and a termination date of December 3, 2020. Because the price of Bitcoin steadily decreased in 2018 and throughout the first quarter 2019, the Company decided it was not economically responsible to commence mining under this hosting arrangement until May 2019 when Bitcoin mining economics started to improve. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized revenue of $47 under this agreement.
