Hyperscale Data pivots Michigan facility from Bitcoin to AI

Overview

After an early‑July purchase of 67 BTC that raised its treasury to 849 BTC, Hyperscale Data kept buying on the open market, adding roughly 51.5 BTC in the week to 19 July and bringing total holdings to 1,087.4527 BTC—about two‑thirds of its reported assets. In late July, the company began monetizing part of that treasury, selling roughly 100 BTC and pledging the remaining balance as collateral for a Bitcoin‑backed credit facility with a variable 4.5%–5.0% interest rate. Proceeds are being directed to fund construction of a new AI data‑center campus in Michigan, tied to a ten‑year master services agreement for 20 MW of compute capacity, with an optional 32 MW extension that could lift contract revenue above $3 billion.

In August 2026, the company sold approximately 686 BTC for roughly $43.4 million. These proceeds were used to fund the Michigan data center expansion, manage capital structure, and fully repay all outstanding Bitcoin‑backed loans on the Morpho protocol, which released the company’s pledged Coinbase Wrapped Bitcoin (cbBTC) collateral. Executive Chairman Milton Ault III stated the sale was a matter of capital allocation and did not signal an end to the company’s Bitcoin strategy, noting plans to rebuild holdings through future mining production.

By early September, Hyperscale Data ceased all Bitcoin mining operations at its Michigan facility to repurpose the site for artificial intelligence computing, following an inspection by a California‑based neocloud provider. The company announced plans to sell its mining hardware to fund this transition. Consequently, Bitcoin holdings fell approximately 79% from late July levels to roughly 215 BTC by the end of August. Following these shifts, company shares fell 17% to a split‑adjusted record low of $0.1984.
