Despite a difficult year for the mining sector, Hut 8’s strategy to expand into artificial intelligence and high-performance computing supported its financial stability.
Major AI Deal Positions Hut 8 for Long-Term Growth
In December 2025, Hut 8 entered into a major 15-year agreement with AI cloud platform Fluidstack. The company will provide 245 megawatts of energy for a new AI data center. The deal, valued at $7 billion, is one of the largest ever between a crypto-native company and an AI infrastructure provider.
This partnership supports Hut 8’s shift toward AI and data services. With global demand for high-performance computing rising, the agreement with Fluidstack adds a new stream of business for the firm. It also helps balance the effects of reduced mining rewards after the April 2024 Bitcoin halving.
Challenges for Bitcoin Miners in 2025
The broader Bitcoin mining industry faced multiple difficulties in 2025. The April 2024 halving reduced block rewards from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC. At the same time, rising energy costs and high inflation affected operating margins across the sector.
Many miners also dealt with hardware supply issues due to new tariffs from the United States government. Tensions between the U.S. and China created disruptions in the supply of ASIC mining equipment, which China largely produces. These conditions created a challenging environment for smaller and less diversified mining firms.
Bitcoin Treasury Strategy and Corporate Expansion
Hut 8 has focused on growing its Bitcoin reserves and expanding operations. The company currently holds 13,696 BTC in its corporate treasury, ranking 9th worldwide, according to BitcoinTreasuries.net. This holding is worth over $1.2 billion at current Bitcoin prices.
The firm also holds a majority stake in American Bitcoin, another mining and treasury-focused company. American Bitcoin owns 5,098 BTC, worth about $458 million. This shared strategy of accumulating Bitcoin and investing in infrastructure strengthens both companies’ positions in a volatile market.
