Hyperscale Data exits Michigan Bitcoin mining, BTC stack down 79% in weeks
Hyperscale burned through most of its Bitcoin reserves · from roughly 1,000 BTC to 215 · in a matter of weeks, effectively liquidating its mining operation to fund AI data center buildout in Michigan. This is a textbook capital rotation: mining hardware and BTC are being traded for GPU compute infrastructure, betting AI revenue beats mining margins. Worth watching whether this becomes a wider trend among smaller miners caught between rising hashrate difficulty and AI infrastructure demand.
