CIFR--
Among Bitcoin mining peers, Cipher Mining (NASDAQ: CIFR) closed at $11.64, down 17.7%. Trading volume surged to about 153 million shares, roughly 4.1 times its three-month average. The company's loss came despite announcing a 10-year artificial intelligence (AI) hosting agreement with Fluidstack, valued at about $3 billion, with extensions that could bring the total near $7 billion. Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL) will guarantee $1.4 billion of lease obligations under the deal and receive warrants representing roughly 5.4% equity in Cipher. Cipher's loss reflects the continued sensitivity of the stock to swings in Bitcoin, which fell 3.4% to $109,534.50, pulling down crypto-related equities across the sector.
Riot Platforms (NASDAQ: RIOT) dropped 7% to $16.74, and Hut 8 Corp (NASDAQ: HUT) slid 7.9% to $34.88, further illustrating the sector's vulnerability to Bitcoin's performance.
Investors should consider the broader market trends and the specific risks associated with Cipher Mining before making investment decisions. While the AI hosting agreement indicates expansion into high-performance computing, the stock's volatility highlights the importance of thorough analysis and risk management.
