LAS VEGAS, July 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hyperscale Data, Inc. (NYSE American: GPUS), a diversified holding company (“ Hyperscale Data ” or the “ Company ”), today announced that its indirect, wholly owned subsidiary, Ault Markets, Inc. (“ Ault Markets ”), plans to launch a validator node on the Solana blockchain. This initiative marks a further step in Hyperscale Data’s strategy to deepen its engagement with decentralized technologies and enhance its blockchain infrastructure services.

Ault Markets’ entry into Solana validation is a milestone in Hyperscale Data’s broader vision to integrate real-time blockchain operations across its portfolio of artificial intelligence (“ AI ”), digital assets and financial technology platforms. Ault Markets’ plan involves:

  • Validator Launch on Solana – Ault Markets plans to deploy a high-performance validator node on the Solana blockchain in the third quarter of 2025, enabling participation in transaction validation and block production.
  • Delegation and Reward Model – The validator will support delegated staking, offering rewards to internal operations and external participants through a fair and transparent distribution structure.
  • Infrastructure-Driven Vision – The validator launch aligns with Hyperscale Data’s long-term objective to build secure, high-throughput infrastructure to support next-generation blockchain and AI workloads.
  • Protocol-Level Engagement – Ault Markets is preparing an application for the Solana Foundation Delegation Program, aiming to become a key infrastructure partner within the Solana ecosystem.

“Launching a Solana validator is a strategic step in our mission to build the next generation of blockchain infrastructure and asset management,” said Milton “Todd” Ault III, Founder and Executive Chairman of Hyperscale Data. “This initiative will allow us to directly support the Solana ecosystem while expanding our role in decentralized finance.”

“Over time, Ault Markets intends to broaden its validation services to additional blockchain protocols,” Ault added. “From core infrastructure to decentralized finance, we’re committed to delivering a robust suite of tools that support the evolving needs of the global digital asset landscape.”

This validator is expected to be an important component of Ault Markets’ multi-chain infrastructure strategy, focused on building a compliant, scalable and diversified platform to support a broad array of blockchain ecosystems.

About Hyperscale Data, Inc.

Through its wholly owned subsidiary Sentinum, Inc., Hyperscale Data owns and operates a data center at which it mines digital assets and offers colocation and hosting services for the emerging AI ecosystems and other industries. Hyperscale Data’s other wholly owned subsidiary, Ault Capital Group, Inc. (“ ACG ”), is a diversified holding company pursuing growth by acquiring undervalued businesses and disruptive technologies with a global impact.

Hyperscale Data expects to divest itself of ACG on or about December 31, 2025 (the “ Divestiture ”). Upon the occurrence of the Divestiture, the Company would solely be an owner and operator of data centers to support high-performance computing services, though it may at that time continue to operate in the digital asset space as described in the Company’s filings with the SEC. Until the Divestiture occurs, the Company will continue to provide, through ACG and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries and strategic investments, mission-critical products that support a diverse range of industries, including an AI software platform, social gaming platform, equipment rental services, defense/aerospace, industrial, automotive, medical/biopharma and hotel operations. In addition, ACG is actively engaged in private credit and structured finance through a licensed lending subsidiary. Hyperscale Data’s headquarters are located at 11411 Southern Highlands Parkway, Suite 190, Las Vegas, NV 89141.

On December 23, 2024, the Company issued one million (1,000,000) shares of a newly designated Series F Exchangeable Preferred Stock (the “ Series F Preferred Stock ”) to all common stockholders and holders of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis. The Divestiture will occur through the voluntary exchange of the Series F Preferred Stock for shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock of ACG (collectively, the “ ACG Shares ”). The Company reminds its stockholders that only those holders of the Series F Preferred Stock who agree to surrender such shares, and do not properly withdraw such surrender, in the exchange offer through which the Divestiture will occur, will be entitled to receive the ACG Shares and consequently be stockholders of ACG upon the occurrence of the Divestiture.
