Bitcoin miners face a window of data center and high-performance computing (HPC) service contracts with hyperscale computing and AI startups in the next nine months, but the chances of securing HPC/AI data center deals are dwindling, according to analysts at JPMorgan. Due to delays in data center approvals and grid connectivity, bitcoin miners can leverage their existing infrastructure to meet AI computing needs. The report states that with limited grid capacity in the United States, demand for AI and HPC will continue to grow until 2026.
