AI Boom Could Unlock Hidden Value in Bitcoin Miners
-

According to VanEck analyst Matthew Sigel, the AIP acquisition exposes a major arbitrage opportunity for Bitcoin miners. While the $40 billion price tag equates to $8 million per megawatt of electrical capacity, publicly traded miners like Riot Platforms, Hut 8, and IREN are valued at just $3 million per megawatt.Sigel notes that Bitcoin miners could re-rate their stock by leveraging their electrical infrastructure for AI computing contracts. Doing so could potentially lead to a 150%–500% increase in company valuations, while providing miners with stable long-term revenue streams from high-demand AI workloads.
