Publicly traded Bitcoin mining companies need approximately $50 billion to complete their planned AI infrastructure projects, with Iren, Riot Platforms, and Hive Digital facing funding gaps of approximately $2.11 billion, $7.2 billion, and $4.6 billion, respectively.

According to CoinWorld news, Cleveland Fed President Beth Hammack (a 2026 FOMC voter) said at the National Association for Business Economics annual meeting that smaller, more frequent policy adjustments help keep inflation expectations stable, but she did not explicitly support a rate hike this month. Hammack noted that inflationary pressures are not limited to the energy sector, with rising tariffs and demand for electricity and tech components driven by AI infrastructure buildout also having an impact. She emphasized that when policymakers explain the basis for their decisions, both the public and investors benefit, but officials should not give explicit forecasts on the direction of interest rates.
