Bitcoin Miners Shifting to Artificial Intelligence and High-Performance Computing, According to VanEck Analysts
Bitcoin miners are increasingly turning to artificial intelligence and high-performance computing to generate profits through strategic arbitrage, according to new research from VanEck. The firm estimates a $38 billion net present value opportunity by converting 20% of collective capacity to AI/HPC by 2027. Bitcoin miners are well-positioned to address the energy-intensive nature of AI projects and generate a new income stream, as they have access to power. While publicly traded BTC miners currently control a record percentage of Bitcoin's hashrate, the MarketVector Digital Asset Equity Index has underperformed against Bitcoin, leading VanEck to believe investors are missing a story that could double the market cap of the stocks.
