Bold pivot: Bitdeer is shifting from LOIs to a direct-build AI data-center model [2]. The plan centers on a 570 MW Clarington, OH facility by Q3 2026 and a path to 40 EH/s of self-mining by October [3]. A roughly 3 GW pipeline backs the push, with a 300 MW addition in Niles, OH and Southeast Asia sites under negotiation [2].
Pipeline & growth — Pipeline ~3 GW; aims for $2B ARR by end-’26 on 200 MW AI conversion; adds 300 MW Niles, OH; SEA sites under negotiation; hiring U.S. experts ahead of Jihan Wu’s rare U.S. visit for Cantor Miami [2].
Hardware, AI Cloud & GPUs — SEALMINER A3 series launched with 12.5 J/TH efficiency; procure NVIDIA GPUs; AI Cloud ARR reached $8M; 1,160 GPUs deployed by EOY 2025; next-gen GB300/B300 systems in the pipeline [3].
Mining status & AI mix — Self-mining hash rate up +20% MoM to 35 EH/s; on track to 40 EH/s by Oct; September mined 452 BTC [3].
Bitdeer aims to toggle between Bitcoin mining and AI compute as economics shift.
