AWS Deal Sparks Buzz: Cipher Mining has ignited intense discussions on X following a recent $5.5 billion, 15-year lease agreement with Amazon Web Services for AI infrastructure. Many are intrigued by the company’s shift from traditional Bitcoin mining to AI and high-performance computing. This pivot is seen as a bold step into a high-growth sector.
Financial Reactions Mixed: Posts on X highlight a split in opinions after Cipher Mining reported Q3 2025 revenue of $72 million, alongside a recent insider stock sale worth $3.9 million. While some view the revenue as a strong positive signal, others question the insider sale as a potential red flag. The stock’s volatility, with recent ups and downs, keeps the conversation lively.
Future Growth Potential: Discussions also focus on Cipher Mining’s low-cost power advantage in Texas and additional deals like a 10-year HPC contract with Fluidstack and Google. Enthusiasm is high for the company’s 3.2 GW power pipeline, with some on X predicting exponential growth in AI compute capacity by late 2025.
