Established miners are seeking the second curve; AI data centers are much more stable in cash flow than BTC mining, making it a smart move in the long run.

Behind Hut 8’s 30% rally, the $9.8 billion long-term lease directly shifted the narrative from mining to hyperscale, completely restructuring the valuation logic.

The move of mining companies transforming into AI infrastructure is effective; cheap electricity in Texas is indeed an advantage.
