Since Core Scientific’s announcement, the overall market value of the 14 Bitcoin miners tracked by JPMorgan Chase has increased by $4 billion.
JPMorgan analysts believe that the market value growth of Bitcoin mining miners reflects the recognition that their equipment has the potential to serve as an AI GPU hosting center.
JPMorgan analysts said that Bitcoin miners have the necessary power and other infrastructure to take advantage of emerging opportunities in HPC computer rooms to support AI development.
Analysts point out that companies with convenient power and additional interconnection agreements and power authorizations have a competitive advantage. Publicly traded U.S. miners already manage more than 5 billion watts of power, with an additional 4.5 billion watts available for use.
The report points out that for AI hyperscale service providers, obtaining electricity three to four years in advance may be worth $105 million to $140 million.
