The decision adds another $1.225 billion to the income Core Scientific expected to receive under earlier agreements. 


Under the option, Core Scientific will modify its facilities in Austin, Texas to begin providing 70 MW of infrastructure for CoreWeave in the second half of 2025.

CoreWeave will fund the necessary capital investments. Another 70 MW of infrastructure will be created in addition to the 200 MW foreseen in early June. That agreement was worth $3.5 billion over its 12-year term.

Core Scientific chief executive officer Adam Sullivan said in a statement:“Many data centers built in the last 20 years are not suitable to support future computing requirements. Core Scientific is well positioned to design for the future and build application-specific data centers (ASDCs).” 


“We intend to continue to transform and expand our hosting business and our earnings power,” he continued. The company will continue to enhance its crypto mining capacity at the same time.AI give all miners new revenue potential


Core Scientific is not alone in looking to artificial intelligence for additional revenue flow after the latest Bitcoin (BTC) halving. Also on June 25, Canadian miner Hive Digital Technologies released its fourth-quarter results for the financial year ending on March 31. It showed an 8% increase in revenue year-on-year for a total of $114.5 million.


“The Company has continued its efforts to expand its facilities to offer HPC services to companies in the gaming, artificial intelligence and graphics rendering industries,” Hive said in the accompanying commentary. Hive is “firmly part of the global boom in data center infrastructure,” it added.


Hive has facilities in Canada, Iceland and Sweden.
