Mining Firms Flock to AI, but Wall Street Cools Valuation Enthusiasm. The Earnings Season Reveals Who's 'Swimming Naked'?

Bitcoin mining companies are increasingly pivoting to AI and HPC (high-performance computing) infrastructure, but Wall Street is growing skeptical, demanding proof of a viable business model over mere announcements. An analysis shows that while early AI-related announcements triggered significant stock price movements (average absolute change of 24.1%), recent similar news has had a much smaller market impact (average ~10.2%), despite the underlying business value of AI/HPC hosting contracts improving. A review of Q2 2024 earnings from five major mining firms reveals a mixed picture: * **Marathon Digital (MARA):** Reported declining revenue ($175M, down 27%) and a large net loss ($610M+). Its AI/HPC transformation remains in the building phase, contributing negligible revenue so far. * **Core Scientific:** Successfully shifted its business model, with AI/HPC hosting now dominating revenue (83% of total $164.2M). However, this came with high capital expenditure and negative shareholder equity. * **TeraWulf:** Showed early results from its pivot, with HPC leasing generating 71% of its total revenue ($44.77M). It secured major long-term contracts but also reported a significant net loss. * **Hut 8:** Achieved substantial revenue growth ($74.9M, up 81.4%) driven by computing operations and completed commercialization of its first major AI data center campus. It remains unprofitable on a net income basis. * **CleanSpark:** Revenue still relies entirely on Bitcoin mining ($138M, down 30.5%). Its main AI highlight was signing a $6.6 billion, 20-year data center lease, but revenue from it is not expected until late 2027. The key takeaway is that the market's focus has shifted from the "AI story" to tangible execution, project delivery capabilities, customer quality, and the ability to generate future cash flow.

All Metrics Smashing Records, Yet Stock Prices Plunge Across the Board

Memory giants like Western Digital (WDC) and SanDisk (SNDK) reported blockbuster earnings in the summer of 2026, featuring毛利率 exceeding 80%, massive customer prepayments, and long-term supply agreements. Despite this seemingly perfect performance, their stocks plummeted post-earnings (WDC down 13%, SNDK down 7%), along with peers like Micron. The collapse highlights a core market rule: "good" isn't enough; results must beat already sky-high expectations. With valuations at peak "perfect asset" levels, even slightly conservative forward guidance triggered a sell-off. The market saw "peak performance" as a signal to exit. Beneath the stellar numbers, four反常 trends emerged: 1. **Financialized Pricing:** Customers provide百亿级 in upfront "interest-free deposits" to secure future capacity. 2. **Reversed Cost Curve:** Advanced DRAM (HBM4, DDR6) costs are rising per bit due to complex packaging, breaking Moore's Law. 3. **AI vs. Consumer Split:** Data center storage demand soars (+103% for SanDisk), while consumer electronics demand weakens under high costs. 4. **HDD Revival:** Hard drives, now used for AI agent context caching, see毛利率 near 55-57%. Underlying隐忧 persist. Soaring capital expenditure (CapEx) by SK Hynix and Micron risks future oversupply. Revenue growth is increasingly driven by price hikes, not surging shipment volumes (bit growth), making profits vulnerable to any price correction. In conclusion, while AI has created a long-term growth narrative, transforming storage into "strategic infrastructure," the market's violent reaction signals that peak valuations and expectations have left no safety margin. The周期 hasn't disappeared; it's merely wearing an AI disguise.

Footage of the detention of employees of fraudulent crypto exchanges in Moscow published

Russian security services (FSB) have detained over 20 employees of cryptocurrency exchange offices in Moscow City. These offices were allegedly used by Ukrainian call centers to launder money stolen from Russian citizens. The detainees were forced to work as freelance employees after being deceived. In one case, a victim was falsely informed by fraudsters posing as Russian authorities that a power of attorney was issued in his name. To cancel it, he was told to withdraw all his money and then work as an "external employee" to help detain other fraudsters. The man admitted to acting on instructions from individuals claiming to be from Rosfinmonitoring and the FSB. Other detainees described meeting clients, accepting and counting cash, converting it to cryptocurrency, and transferring it to specified crypto wallets. One claimed the exchange handled about 30 clients daily with a turnover reaching $1-2 million, while another estimated the average money turnover could reach $30 million. The FSB reported shutting down nine channels for transferring funds abroad via cryptocurrency. The victims, including pensioners, were constantly in contact with the call center, followed step-by-step instructions, and were unaware of the illicit nature of their actions. Young people from Russian regions with low financial literacy, seeking easy money, were recruited remotely to work in these crypto exchanges.
