Big bets like CleanSpark’s $2 billion, 20-year data center deal signal a major shift toward AI and high-performance computing, especially amid post-halving profit pressures. Others are finding success elsewhere — like Bitmine’s $45 million in Ethereum staking revenue — proving multiple revenue streams are emerging in the crypto economy.
