Bitcoin Miner Becomes AI Giant? IREN’s SHOCKING $9.7 BILLION Microsoft Deal!
Could a company known for Bitcoin mining truly become an AI infrastructure titan overnight? A staggering $9.7 billion, five-year GPU cloud contract with Microsoft is now supercharging IREN’s AI ambitions, marking a dramatic turning point for the company. Broker Canaccord Genuity has not only reiterated its buy rating but also significantly raised its price target to $70, envisioning massive upside from this monumental deal and IREN’s expanding Texas data centers. Crucially, Microsoft's 20% prepayment and credit backing dramatically reduce financial risks, fueling IREN’s ambitious $3 billion Horizon buildout where it will supply Nvidia’s cutting-edge GB300 GPUs. Analysts highlight the potential to shift investor focus squarely from crypto mining to the burgeoning AI sector, especially with IREN's upcoming two-gigawatt Sweetwater 1 site poised to capitalize on power scarcity. With impressive 355% year-on-year revenue growth, IREN is uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between crypto and AI, leveraging its scale and low-cost power. This strategic pivot promises a thrilling new chapter for IREN, potentially reshaping its market identity and value.
