到目前为止,已有 13 家在美国上市的矿业公司公布了其第二季度的收益,揭示了一个共同的主题:对现金流的需求并没有放缓。根据 TheMinerMag 的计算,这种紧迫性是由比特币哈希价格的状态所驱动的,在减半后,比特币哈希价格并没有产生有意义的现金流。为了缓解这种情况,一些公司也再次转向债务融资。

13 家公司中的 9 家——Bitdeer、Bitfarms、Cipher、CleanSpark、Core、HIVE、Marathon、Riot 和 Terawulf——在第二季度通过各种股票发行计划共筹集了 12.5 亿美元。Iris Energy 尚未公布其收益,但据报道,其在第二季度通过市场发行筹集了 4.58 亿美元。

基于此,TheMinerMag 的仪表板显示,自减半以来的第一季度,大型矿业公司通过股权融资筹集了超过 16 亿美元,到目前为止,第三季度又筹集了 5.3 亿美元。

虽然这一数字没有打破第一季度矿业上市公司通过股票发行筹集近 20 亿美元的记录,但值得注意的是,自第二季度以来,可转换票据和资产支持贷款再次增加。

根据 TheMinerMag 的仪表板,自 2022 年熊市开始以来,在 Luna 崩盘期间,上市公司的债务融资总额一直为负值,这表明它们在过去两年中努力去杠杆。

虽然许多公司在第二季度继续去杠杆化,但它们的债务融资总额却转为正值,因为 Hut 8 没有通过股票发行筹集任何资金,而是通过 Coatue 票据获得了 1.5 亿美元的收益。

此外,在过去一周,我们看到 Marathon 和 Core Scientific 发行了总额为 7 亿美元的可转换票据。在 Core 的案例中,新的可转换票据是债务重组努力的一部分,用较低利率的票据取代现有债务。对于 Marathon 来说,可转换票据主要用于从市场上购买更多比特币。CleanSpark 在其第二季度文件中披露,它已与 Coinbase 达成信贷协议,以比特币作为抵押品。Canaan 表示,它在第二季度承诺了 530 比特币,以获得为期 18 个月、总额为 1920 万美元的定期贷款。

考虑到比特币的哈希值低至 43 美元/PH/s(这是在今天调整了 4.2% 的难度之后),这几乎令人惊讶。

How Many Tokens Away Is Yang Zhilin from the 'Moon Chasing the Light'?

The article explores the intense competition between two leading Chinese AI companies, DeepSeek and Kimi (Moon Dark Side), and the mounting pressure on Yang Zhilin, the founder of Kimi. While DeepSeek re-emerged after 15 months of silence with its powerful V4 model—boasting 1.6 trillion parameters and low-cost, long-context capabilities—Kimi has been focusing on long-context processing and multi-agent systems with its K2.6 model. Yang faces a threefold challenge: technological rivalry, commercialization pressure, and investor expectations. Despite Kimi’s high valuation (reaching $18 billion), its revenue heavily relies on a single product with low paid conversion rates, while DeepSeek’s strategic silence and open-source influence have strengthened its market position and valuation prospects, now targeting over $20 billion. Both companies reflect broader trends in China’s AI ecosystem: Kimi aims for global influence through open-source contributions and agent-based advancements, while DeepSeek prioritizes foundational innovation and hardware independence, notably shifting to Huawei’s chips. Their competition is seen as vital for China’s AI progress, with the gap between top Chinese and U.S. models narrowing to just 2.7% on the Elo rating scale. Ultimately, the article argues that this rivalry, though anxiety-inducing for leaders like Zhilin, is essential for driving innovation and solidifying China’s role in the global AI landscape.
