    File No. 333-268501

To whom it may concern,

This letter is in response to the letter dated
January 20, 2023, from the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) addressed
to Bit Origin Ltd. (the “Company”, “we”, and “our”). For ease of reference, we have recited the Commission’s
comments in this response and numbered them accordingly. An amended Registration Statement on Form F-1 (the “Registration Statement
Amendment No. 2”) is being submitted to accompany this letter.

Amendment No.1 to Registration Statement on
Form F-3 Filed January 5, 2023

Miners, page 5

1. Refer to your response to comment 10. Please
revise your disclosure to describe the terms and provisions of your insurance policies covering your miners. To the extent that you do
not have insurance coverage for your crypto asset miners, please revise to add risk factor disclosure.

RESPONSE: We note the Staff’s comments,
and in response hereto, respectfully advise the staff that the miners are not covered by any insurance to which we are the beneficiary.
We revised the disclosure on page 6 and added a risk factor “The mining rigs may experience damages” on page 22 of the Registration
Statement Amendment No. 2.

2. Refer to your response to comment 13. Please
revise to clarify the difference between the two breakeven points identified in the last paragraph on page 5. In addition, disclose the
range of the value of Bitcoin for the periods covered by your financial statements and include the assumptions made in determining value.
Also revise to address the impact of your policy to hold your mined Bitcoin "in order to enjoy the potential benefits of the appreciation
of the Bitcoin price."

RESPONSE: We note the Staff’s comments,
and in response hereto, respectfully advise the staff that we revised on page 6 of the Registration Statement Amendment No. 2 to disclose
that prior to December 2022, pursuant to the original hosting agreement and service agreement, based on the weighted average of the hosting
price of approximately $0.08/kwh, the breakeven price is $17,599/Bitcoin mined.

Indiana site, i.e., the difference of the market price of the Bitcoins mined from the Indiana site and the electricity cost. Based on
the adjusted profit sharing model, the hosting fee is approximately $0.065/kwh, and therefore, the breakeven price is $14,299.

We also revised the disclosure on page 5 of the Registration Statement
Amendment No. 2 that the price of Bitcoins is volatile. It has decreased recently and may continue to decrease if the liquidity of the
