#数字资产市场动态 Mining industry leader makes a big move again. Riot has just liquidated 1,080 BTC and turned around to invest in land purchases in Texas, planning to jointly build a data center with AMD. Once this move was announced, the stock price rose by 16.02%—it seems the market still recognizes their shift from pure mining to infrastructure development. This reflects a broader transformation in the entire mining sector: upgrading computing power infrastructure, expanding geographically, and deepening cooperation with chip manufacturers—it's no longer just about burning electricity.

Riot is really clever this time, bottoming out in real estate + collaborating with AMD, directly avoiding regulatory risks. A 16% increase is not excessive.

Riot's move is truly clever, focusing on BTC infrastructure—I've always said mining should be played this way. Selling coins to build data centers? That's quite bold, betting on the long-term value of infrastructure. A 16% increase isn't much, but the key is the signal, the market is buying into this transformation narrative. Partnering with AMD to build DC feels much more resilient than just mining alone. This is called survival; you can't just rely on electricity costs to choke you. If this approach really works, other mining companies will have to follow suit, or they'll fall behind.

Throwing away 1080 BTC? This guy is really going all-in on infrastructure, his guts are not ordinary.

Riot's approach is pretty good—selling coins to buy land and build data centers, definitely better than just holding onto mining rigs. But throwing away 1080 BTC like that, how confident are they? --- The infrastructure track is the way out; pure mining will eventually be squeezed out. The AMD partnership was a good move. --- Texas land + AMD collaboration—this is laying out the next-generation computing power ecosystem. The mining industry really needs to upgrade. --- A 16% increase isn't much; let's see if the long-term can be supported by infrastructure. Simply hyping concepts can easily lead to a crash. --- Selling coins to build data centers is a gamble on the stability of US policy environment. Truly bold. --- From electricity consumption to selling infrastructure services, the story of mining is starting to be told differently. Quite interesting. --- 1080 BTC just gone like that, must be pretty dismissive, haha. But strategically, it's definitely smarter. --- The shift of mining to infrastructure has actually been happening for a while; Riot is just more noticeable because of its size.

Selling 1,080 Bitcoins to buy land? This guy really wants to hold infrastructure long-term, smart move. The recent shift in the mining industry is indeed interesting, but I always feel there's a bit of a strategy behind this liquidation... Riot's move is well-played, more risk-resistant than just mining alone. Texas land combined with AMD partnership feels like playing a big game. Basically, mining can't keep up anymore, so they have to move upstream. A 16% increase shows the market still buys into this, but how long it can last is hard to say.

Selling coins to buy land? Riot's move is quite interesting, but really willing to throw away 1080 BTC? --- Partnering with AMD to build data centers is definitely more imaginative than just mining alone, no wonder the stock price is soaring. --- The mining industry is shifting towards infrastructure, this trend was long overdue, the era of burning electricity should end. --- Clearing out BTC to invest in real estate, I’d like to see how much profit this gamble can make. --- Texas is about to become even more lively, with data centers popping up one after another. --- Transforming from a mining operator to an infrastructure provider, this logical chain is quite clear.

Riot cashes out 1080 BTC to build infrastructure. It seems that the mining industry is truly self-redemptive. The 16% increase indicates that the market is buying into this transformation narrative, but I just want to know—Is clearing BTC a bearish signal, or do they really have more confidence in data centers?
