    Cipher’s Amazon Deal, IREN’s Microsoft Deal, Q3 Earnings Recap, and is China Winning the AI Race?

    Subscribe to the Blockspace newsletter for market-making news as it hits the wire! Welcome back to The Mining Pod! Today, Colin and Matt talk about two massive hyperscaler deals that have upped the expectations for AI-pivots. Cipher Mining just secured a $5.5B, 15-year lease with Amazon Web Services for 300MW at their Bear Lake facility, while IREN signed a $9.7B, 5-year deal with Microsoft for 200MW in Texas. We also cover highlights from public miner Q3 earnings that have trickled through so far, a bitcoin miner lawsuit that involves OpenAI, and why Warren Buffett's Pacific Power’s loss with Amazon is a win for bitcoin miners. Plus: Will China win the AI race? Nvidia’s CEO thinks yes. Notes:  • AI runway better than mining for miners • IREN Microsoft deal is a win for powershell model thesis • AI business lines give miners better access to capital • Miners with exposure but no deals on the table could offer interesting opportunities • Mining in the U.S. not done yet • Cipher signs $5.5B AWS deal for 300MW facility • IREN inks $9.7B Microsoft cloud compute agreement • Hash price crashes to $40 per petahash per day • Bitcoin retraced from $126K to $101K support • Cipher announces 1GW data center JV project • Pacific Power fails to deliver Amazon capacity Timestamps: 00:00 Start 02:00 Difficulty Report by Luxor 05:05 Cipher Amazon deal 08:02 IREN Microsoft deal 13:56 Cleanspark Ad 14:25 Q3 earnings update 14:38 RIOT 14:54 MARA 15:34 HUT 8 16:08 CIPHER 18:23 CORZ workers comp lawsuit 21:08 China winning AI race?26:31 Cry Corner: Buffett can’t MW 👉CleanSpark, America's Bitcoin Miner!
