And Then You Win is Finally Out! The story of how we went all-in on Bitcoin, were ridiculed, “ate glass” to survive — and built businesses worth $12 billion and counting. More than that, it’s about what we learned about ourselves and the world along the way. Amazon: amazon.com/dp/1636805310

Cipher Begins Development of Lateral Pipelines to Facilitate Data Center Expansion via Bring-Your-Own-Generation - Lateral pipelines capable of supporting up to 2.5 GW of new generation across multiple sites - New generation expected to increase Cipher’s leasable HPC data center capacity and is a significant step toward making new power available by 2027 “Securing and delivering power is the foundation of everything we do. Bringing our own electricity generation allows us to unlock significant new capacity quickly while proactively contributing to greater grid stability in the communities in which we build our data centers,” said Tyler Page, Chief Executive Officer.

Oggi in Ucraina i missili assassini di Putin hanno ammazzato diciassette civili colpiti deliberatamente in quanto civili. Lo voglio dire a chi parla di svolta diplomatica: oggi quelle persone sono morte perché noi non diamo agli ucraini la possibilità di difendersi adeguatamente. Solo da qui può nascere una soluzione diplomatica, non abbandonando gli ucraini che lottano per la democrazia e la libertà, contro un autocrate che attacca l’Ucraina per attaccare l’Europa. L’Europa deve sostituire la spesa americana per la difesa, che non è più affidabile, con fondi europei, verso una difesa comune, anche a questo serve il SAFE. Abbandonare l’Ucraina significa abbandonare l’Europa e produrre la sua disgregazione, esattamente quello che vogliono Putin e Trump.

Real MegaWatts vs "PowerPoint" MegaWatts. Few.

Dalia Grybauskaitė, former President of Lithuania: I was surprised by stupidity of Russia when they invaded Ukraine. They don’t need territories, they already have a lot. Just to humiliate nation? To make Ukrainian nation an enemy forever? Forever. To create Ukrainian identity so strong that it has never been before? Now they will become enemy for centuries. I call it stupidity. There's no sense in doing it and turning your friends into enemies, your historic allies. A Slavic nation that's practically very close to you historically. Pure humiliation, pure ambition, which is absolutely silly. I was also surprised by reaction of the West. How cowardly, how afraid West has been, what lack of leadership we demonstrated.

Vladimir Putin is one of the most prolific terrorist dirtbags of the last 50 years. He has killed at least SIXTEEN THOUSAND Ukrainian civilians with his murderous bombing of schools, restaurants, hospitals and apartment buildings. Vladimir Putin has turned Russia into a terrorist caliphate so brutally murderous that it would make Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi jealous. For perspective: ISIS is estimated to have killed ~400 people throughout all of Europe since their founding. 16,000 vs 400!! Even Bin Laden’s Al-Qaeda fails to come close to Putin with their number of 280. Putin is a nuclear-armed terrorist, plain and simple. An especially cowardly one. Meanwhile, he has governed his own country so completely incompetently that, despite spanning 11 time zones, it now has an economy significantly smaller than Texas, and — despite all of Russia’s incessant, completely performative, and disingenuous Christian LARPing—now has the largest Muslim population in Europe BY FAR.   In fact, Russia is such a total basket-case of a country that Putin’s own daughter chooses to live in Paris! And quite lavishly, I might add, with money that her father has pilfered from the Russian people. Americans who knowingly and willingly spread Russian propaganda are no better than those who have collaborated with ISIS. They are sickening traitors to our country. And they should be dealt with accordingly!

Morgan Stanley updated their bull target for $CIFR to $76.50 expecting further lease signing and further power pipeline growth The bank lowered its base case from $48.50 to $47

TRUMP: Putin said, "I'd love to meet in Moscow." I don’t know if Zelenskyy would go to Moscow. Maybe he would. Would you go to Moscow? ZELENSKYY: It’s difficult. There are lot of Ukrainian drones there. (Audience laughs) It’s dangerous. TRUMP: Yeah, it’s hard to go to Moscow.

The market also needs to learn to differentiate among the business models of companies in “data centers”. If the largest companies in the world now want to sell compute, that would logically increase demand for hard-to-find megawatts in an already constrained market. If a company has a 4.2GW portfolio of development sites and builds turnkey data centers for tenants (so the tenant can manufacture and sell compute), recent headlines seem very positive for such a company. @CipherInc $CIFR

Kevin Warsh’s first FOMC meeting starts this week. He may actually surprise everyone and will either cut or signal cutting rates: 1) The labor market is cracking beneath the surface. Americans who want a job but can’t find one have risen to 6.2 million, near post-2021 highs. 2) Actual reopening of Hormuz will send oil prices sharply lower, neutralizing one of the Fed’s biggest inflation risks. 3) AI is the most powerful deflationary force in decades, driving down the cost of labor, software, research, and services. Its happening in real time. 4) Midterms are coming up 😉

When Notre-Dame burned in 2019, the world stopped. Today, Russia damages Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, a monastery nearly 1,000 years old and older than Notre-Dame itself. A thousand years of history deserves the same attention, the same sympathy, and the same protection.

Know what you own. AI demand just started moving in a meaningful way. Stay patient. We are still early.

$CIFR CEO Tyler Page says the company may generate its own power on-site to move faster on AI data center demand. Hyperscalers need power faster and Cipher may be able to “tap the pipeline” instead of waiting years on the grid.
