CleanSpark Sells 589 Bitcoin to Lock In 285 MW Texas Site for AI Data Center

The miner is redirecting current crypto cash flows to fund an AI computing push without issuing new shares.

Overview

  • CleanSpark said October sales of 589 BTC generated over $64 million at an average price of $110,057 per coin.
  • The proceeds are being used to secure 271 acres near Houston with 285 megawatts reserved for a dedicated AI facility.
  • The company produced 612 BTC in October and still holds about 13,033 BTC as it maintains large‑scale mining operations.
  • Industry veteran Jeffrey Thomas is leading the AI initiative, with infrastructure support from immersion cooling partner Submer.
  • CEO Matt Schultz has argued miners’ edge lies in rapid deployment and power access, citing a recent win over Microsoft for 100 MW in Cheyenne.
