Riot Platforms CEO, Jason Les expressed his interest from “blue-chip” companies that are looking to partner with the Bitcoin miner on AI and High Performance Computing (HPC) initiatives. At the end of October, on a monthly earning call, CEO Les explained the company has had numerous invites from offering a secure large scale power capacity. They have been flooded with messages from top-tier, financially solid companies looking to lock in large power deals, showing serious interest in long-term partnerships.
He further exclaimed how their company was well known for their large power capacity and it is not accepting any lower power deals. In fact, they will set the deal only for hundreds of megawatts worth of power, not any small amounts. Riot’s facilities hold 750 megawatt Rockdale facility and 1 gigawatt power in Corsicana mining site and they offer strategic advantages that could help advance the company’s effort in the sector.
Despite this, Riot is at an overall loss of $154.4 million, that is $0.54 per share compared to an $80 million loss last year. Higher Bitcoin pricing and increased operational production drove a 65% increase in overall income to $80 million, which coincided with this increasing loss.
Nevertheless, even with these losses, its overall revenue has increased by 65% and it has enough energy to make profits and with the constant demands of partnership with top tier companies sooner of later it is sure to spike.
