Million

<a href="https://ultramining.com/news/en/bitcoin-mining-giant-core-scientific-prepares-for-post-bankruptcy-comeback/">Core Scientific</a>, a leading Bitcoin mining company, has significantly reduced its debt by repaying $267 million using proceeds from a recently closed convertible senior notes offering. This strategic move includes settling $150 million in secured notes, $61 million from an exit facility, and $56 million in miner equipment loans, resulting in a substantial decrease in interest expenses from 12.5% to 3%, according to <a href="https://www.financemagnates.com/cryptocurrency/bitcoin-miner-core-scientific-pays-down-267-million-debt-boosts-cash/">Financemagnates</a>. 
Following the debt repayment, Core Scientific bolstered its financial position by adding $172.8 million in cash to its balance sheet. The company plans to leverage this financial flexibility to expand its high-performance computing (HPC) <a href="https://ultramining.com/news/en/bitcoin-mining-reshaping-landscape-amid-global-interest-surge/">hosting</a> capacity while strengthening its Bitcoin mining operations. 
This move aligns with a broader industry trend, as more <a href="https://ultramining.com/news/en/cryptocurrency-miners-strike-gold-with-record-13-9b-net-profit/">cryptocurrency miners</a>, like HIVE Blockchain and <a href="https://af.bitfufu.com/QRdO/cwhbatz1">BitFuFu</a>, are diversifying into AI and HPC to capitalize on growing demand and stabilize revenue streams amid Bitcoin market volatility. Core Scientific's CEO, Adam Sullivan, highlighted the importance of this shift, noting the potential for increased profitability and the company's strengthened position in the competitive mining landscape. 
The transition towards HPC is expected to unlock significant value for Core Scientific, positioning the company for long-term growth and resilience in the evolving digital asset ecosystem.
