VisionWave Holdings Enters $10M Contract for Bitcoin Mining Platform

What Happened
VisionWave Holdings, Inc. announced on February 17, 2026 that it entered into a Statement of Work (SOW) with qSpeed Bitcoin LLC to develop, validate, and deploy a custom qSpeed‑Mine™ Bitcoin (SHA‑256d) mining acceleration and orchestration platform. The SOW has a total contract value of $10.0 million, a planned duration of approximately 32 weeks, and covers software acceleration, fleet orchestration, observability, security hardening, and deployment engineering for up to ~1,000 nodes. The company paid $350,000 upon signing.

Key Details

  • Counterparty & date: SOW with qSpeed Bitcoin LLC dated February 17, 2026.
  • Total contract value: $10.0 million, milestone‑based payments tied to delivery and acceptance.
  • Payment schedule: $350,000 paid at execution; ~ $1.0M for proof‑of‑concept; ~ $6.0M for intermediate milestones (scaled deployment/validation); ~ $3.0M on final acceptance.
  • Deliverables ownership & obligations: All deliverables will be owned by VisionWave; the vendor is not obligated beyond accepted milestones and there are no minimum purchase/volume commitments beyond the milestone structure.
  • Revenue recognition: Potential to recognize not less than the full $10.0M in 2026 if milestones are completed and accepted; revenue recorded in accordance with applicable accounting standards.
  • Forward‑looking caution: Company notes milestone completion, performance outcomes, and other risks could affect timing and amounts.

Why It Matters
This SOW represents a material commercial commitment intended to enhance VisionWave’s Bitcoin mining operations and could contribute meaningful contract revenue in 2026 if milestones are met. For investors, the deal: (1) clarifies that VisionWave is investing in proprietary acceleration and orchestration technology (deliverables owned by the company), (2) ties cash flows to objective milestone acceptance rather than fixed purchases, and (3) carries execution risk because payments and revenue depend on successful delivery and customer acceptance.
