Bitdeer Technologies Group is transitioning its business focus from Bitcoin mining toward Artificial Intelligence (AI) and High-Performance Computing (HPC) infrastructure.

In September 2026, the company implemented a ‘zero bitcoin’ treasury strategy, selling its entire weekly production of 293.2 BTC to generate liquidity. This capital is intended to fund the expansion of its AI and HPC data center business, including land acquisitions in Texas.

By October 2026, Bitdeer announced a major conversion of its Tydal, Norway, mining site into an AI computing facility. Through its subsidiary, Tydal Data Center AS, the company entered a 16-year colocation lease agreement valued at approximately $4.7 billion. The facility, which will utilize NVIDIA GPUs and renewable hydropower, is expected to serve a major AI laboratory and begin operations in two phases through early 2027.
