 <li>Bitcoin mining firm Core Scientific is diversifying its revenue streams by partnering with AI startup CoreWeave.</li>
 <li>The partnership could generate over $100 million in revenue as Core Scientific expands into high-performance computing.</li>
</ul>
<p>Bitcoin mining company, Core Scientific, is taking strides to diversify its revenue streams ahead of the upcoming halving event.</p>
<p>In a significant move, the firm has partnered with artificial intelligence startup, CoreWeave, to provide data center services. This collaboration has the potential to generate revenue exceeding $100 million.</p>
<h2 id="expanding-business-horizons">Expanding Business Horizons</h2>
<p>Core Scientific has taken on the lease of a tier 3 data center in Austin, Texas, previously occupied by Hewlett Packard, to host CoreWeave’s infrastructure.</p>
<p>As per the agreement, Core Scientific will supply up to 16 MW of capacity at its new Austin data center, thereby broadening its business scope to include high-performance computing (HPC).</p>
<p>Backed by major Wall Street financial firms, including Jane Street, J.P. Morgan Asset Management, and Fidelity, CoreWeave is an AI cloud computing company.</p>
<p>It provides infrastructure for compute-intensive applications, such as machine learning, and was valued at $7 billion as of December 2023.</p>
<h2 id="impact-of-the-bitcoin-halving">Impact of the Bitcoin Halving</h2>
<p>Core Scientific’s expansion into new service areas comes just weeks before the <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/cryptocurrencies/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a> halving event, which will cut BTC’s block reward revenue by half.</p>
<p>The 2024 halving for Bitcoin, succeeding the previous ones in 2020, 2016, and 2012, will reduce the block reward for miners from the current 6.25 BTC per block to 3.125 BTC per block.</p>
<p>This halving aims to control Bitcoin’s inflation by gradually decreasing the supply of new coins.</p>
<p>While this will significantly reduce miners’ revenue, the costs associated with mining are expected to rise.</p>
<p>According to a CoinShares analysis, electricity costs per Bitcoin before and after the halving constitute about 68% and 71% of miners’ total cost structure, respectively.</p>
<p>Post-halving, the average production cost for crypto miners is estimated to be $37,856.</p>
<p>In 2023, Core Scientific became North America’s largest publicly listed crypto mining company after mining 19,274 Bitcoin (BTC) worth $812 million.</p>
<p>The company recently emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the United States after a 13-month restructuring process to address $400 million in debt caused by falling BTC prices, rising energy costs, and debt linked to the bankrupt Celsius Network.</p>
