One of the biggest examples is Riot&#8217;s roughly $9.1 BILLION, 20-year AI data-center agreement \u2014 averaging about $1.25 million per day in contract revenue across the initial term.<\/p>\n<p>Then we estimate how much Bitcoin hashrate could potentially leave if major public miners continue shifting toward AI. Based on the companies examined in the video, roughly 128.5 EH\/s represents about 14% of a 918 EH\/s Bitcoin network.<\/p>\n<p>Would less institutional hashrate make home Bitcoin mining more viable? Or are halving rewards, rising difficulty and AI contracts permanently changing the mining industry?<\/p>\n<p>\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<br \/>\n\ud83d\udd0e TOPICS COVERED<br \/>\n\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin mining profitability<br \/>\nBitcoin miners moving to AI<br \/>\nAI compute vs Bitcoin mining<br \/>\nBitcoin mining 2026<br \/>\nBitcoin halving 2028<br \/>\nBitcoin network hashrate<br \/>\nRiot Platforms AI deal<br \/>\nBitcoin mining difficulty<br \/>\nHome Bitcoin mining<br \/>\nAI \/ HPC data centers<\/p>\n<p>#Bitcoin #BitcoinMining #CryptoMining #AICompute #Crypto<\/p>\n<p>\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<br \/>\n\ud83d\udc40 FOLLOW RABID MINING<br \/>\n\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udc26 Twitter\/X:<br \/>\n<a class=\"twitter-timeline\" data-width=\"678\" data-height=\"1000\" data-dnt=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MiningRabid?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">Posts by MiningRabid<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcf8 Instagram:<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/rabidmining\/<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcac Discord:<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/discord.gg\/wXkMhztBDx<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udfa5 Twitch:<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/rabidmining<\/p>\n<p>\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<br \/>\n\ud83d\udd25 BEST MINING DEALS<br \/>\n\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udda5\ufe0f Best CPU For Mining<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/geni.us\/PB8Tfv (PAID LINK)<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udd25 Cheap GPUs<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/geni.us\/3BXU5g (PAID LINK)<\/p>\n<p>\u26a1 Solo Bitcoin Miners<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3V04Ahh\">Bitcoin Merch\u00ae &#8211; MARS LANDER V2 Lottery Miner<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udd0c Power Meter Boxes<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.themeterbox.com\/rabidmining<\/p>\n<p>\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<br \/>\n\ud83d\udcb0 SUPPORT THE CHANNEL<br \/>\n\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcb8 PayPal Support:<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/paypal.me\/RabidMining<\/p>\n<p>BTC:<br \/>\nbc1q9k8cqpknlztfefmq2x0seu74zp5hk4eck5rtzn<\/p>\n<p>LTC:<br \/>\nltc1qhnetz8uzek6fmf4n94f259cseuhc5tnf522hak<\/p>\n<p>ETH:<br \/>\n0x17a7FaFb3821722aB9032f1Dd1089aC432896f63<\/p>\n<p>XMR:<br \/>\n494f5WTwi18GLfTdCeqEa5f6w2LHr9Ku18HUzAak1YACMmhXD8HQE8bMVouZ913fm5FTMf3EQBRAEGWewJuyWpBB1DkrT5t<\/p>\n<p>\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<br \/>\n\ud83d\udd25 JOIN THE COMMUNITY<br \/>\n\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Like, Comment &amp; Subscribe<br \/>\n\u2705 Join The Discord<br \/>\n\u2705 Become A Member<\/p>\n<p>Become a Channel Member:<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCR4HApCTYNfOuZ0nIENAqPg\/join<\/p>\n<p>\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<br \/>\n\u26a0\ufe0f DISCLAIMER<br \/>\n\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<\/p>\n<p>Rabid Mining is not a financial advisor.
