Bitcoin miners increasingly exit mining as funds flow into AI and HPC
Bitcoin mining companies are increasingly shutting down mining operations and shifting to AI and high-performance computing infrastructure businesses as mining profitability deteriorates and demand for AI data centres surges. Some listed miners have effectively stopped mining, unwound equipment contracts and sold bitcoin holdings. The shift is reflected in a fall in network hashrate. Large AI and HPC deals have drawn capital, while market valuations diverge between miners with and without such contracts.

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong disputed linking mining energy to price, while Strike CEO Jack Mallers said such flows were not bitcoin-loyal demand.
