 obligation extends over the contract term given the Company’s continuous provision of hashrate. This period of time corresponds with the period of service for which the mining pool operator determines compensation due the Company. Given the terms of the contract, and the Company’s customary business practice, the contract effectively provides the Company with a contract that continuously renews throughout the day.Segment informationOperating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company currently has one operating segment, Bitcoin Mining, which through operations produces bitcoin to generate revenue. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) for the Company consists of the chief executive officer (“CEO”), and chief financial officer (“CFO”). The CODM reviews the performance of its segment primarily based on operating income when deciding on allocating resources between reinvesting in Bitcoin Mining or exploring alternative deployment of resources.Restricted cashRestricted cash represents amounts pledged as collateral to Luminant ET Services Company LLC (“Luminant”, and Vistra Operations Company, LLC (“Vistra”), a Luminant affiliate, primarily related to the Luminant Power Agreement (defined below in Note 4. Derivative Asset).

The issuance costs are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest rate method over the expected term of each instrument. For the Company’s convertible notes due in 2031, the Company determined the embedded conversion feature did not meet the criteria for equity classification and therefore needs to be accounted for as a derivative liability measured at fair value.Earnings per shareBasic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share adjusts net income (loss) and net income (loss) per common share for the effect of all potentially dilutive shares of Common Stock. Potentially dilutive common shares consist of the Company’s outstanding warrants to purchase Common Stock, Common Stock to settle convertible notes, as well as unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”). The dilutive effect of RSUs is calculated using
