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.

When will Steam Deck 2 launch? Valve says it is waiting for a chip capable of a generational leap

Valve has not fixed a launch timing for its next handheld game device, the Steam Deck 2, it said. The company is keeping its principle of releasing a new model only when a generational leap is possible, including better battery life and power efficiency rather than a simple performance boost. Designer Pierre-Loup Griffais said Valve is reviewing when and how it can offer such a product and is not rushing release until suitable hardware arrives.

Intel unveils OpenClo-based SuperClo, says it cuts cloud token use by over 70 percent

Intel has released a public beta of its enterprise hybrid AI platform SuperClo based on the open-source OpenClo framework, HotHardware reported. The platform dynamically distributes work between local systems and the cloud. High-frequency tasks such as file parsing, memory search and masking sensitive data run on-premises, while complex multi-step reasoning and deep web searches are selectively sent to cloud large language models. Intel said this can cut cloud token consumption by over 70 percent.
