VanEck predicts that Bitcoin miners could increase their profits by $13.9 billion per year if they shift 20% of their energy to AI and HPC (high-performance computing) by 2027.

This would improve their financial health and hedge against Bitcoin price volatility. For example, Core Scientific has signed a 12-year contract with AI company CoreWeave, which is expected to generate $3.5 billion in revenue from providing energy infrastructure.
