Welcome back to the Mining Pod! For this week’s news roundup, Colin and Matt discuss how US public bitcoin miners are growing their share of Bitcoin's hashrate. Plus, Marathon is leveraging its trove of 26,000+ BTC and Cipher is going bigly with three pending mining site acquisitions for a total of 1.5 GW of capacity, some of which the miner may allocate toward AI/HPC compute. They also touch on some AI updates from Crusoe and Bit Digital, and in this week’s cry corner, why grown men are getting big mad about arbitrary data on everyone’s favorite block explorer.
