Mining Transformation Trend: Bitcoin fell approximately 17% in early 2026, while Bitcoin mining stocks surged over 50%, indicating miners are abandoning Bitcoin in favor of AI data centers, reflecting a significant industry transformation.
Contract Revenue Surge: The public mining sector has announced over $70 billion in AI and high-performance computing contracts, with Hut 8 signing a $9.8 billion 15-year lease with NVIDIA, indicating miners are replacing volatile Bitcoin revenues with stable AI income streams.
Market Valuation Shift: Miners are now valued based on their AI computing capacity rather than Bitcoin production, leading to projections that TeraWulf's AI revenue will account for 70% of total revenue by the end of 2026.
Bitcoin Market Pressure: Miners have sold over 15,000 Bitcoins to fund their transition, increasing market selling pressure and altering the supply-demand dynamics of Bitcoin, potentially leading to further price declines.

About BTC

Bitcoin is a decentralized cryptocurrency originally described in a 2008 whitepaper by a person, or group of people, using the alias Satoshi Nakamoto. It was launched soon after, in January 2009.Bitcoin is a peer-to-peer online currency, meaning that all transactions happen directly between equal, independent network participants, without the need for any intermediary to permit or facilitate them. Bitcoin was created, according to Nakamoto’s own words, to allow “online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution.”Some concepts for a similar type of a decentralized electronic currency precede BTC, but Bitcoin holds the distinction of being the first-ever cryptocurrency to come into actual use.
