Bitcoin Reclaims $63K as Iran Deal Optimism Revives Risk Appetite

The post AI Contracts, Not Bitcoin, Now Drive Miner Valuations—and Cipher, TeraWulf Look Cheap appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin miner equity valuations used to move almost lockstep with the price of BTC. That story is now changing fast. According to a market note from CoinDesk, Compass Point analysts Michael Donovan and Ed Engel argue that AI compute contracts—not bitcoin mining economics—are becoming the primary valuation driver for publicly traded miners. The analysts name Cipher Mining and TeraWulf as standout examples. Both stocks, they say, trade below the implied value of their signed AI hosting leases.

The post New Hampshire snuffs out trailblazing bitcoin bond effort appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. At the last moment, New Hampshire has turned its back on a groundbreaking effort to establish what was expected to be the first rated, bitcoin-backed bond issued under a state’s authority, with a governmental body there canceling the project. Just a few months after Moody’s Ratings gave the bond a Ba2 rating, the New Hampshire Executive Council, which reviews major state financial actions, slammed the door with a 3-2 decision that sided with those concerned about the state’s financial reputation. The financial instrument was to be issued by the Business Finance Authority of the State of New Hampshire, backing a private-sector bond of up to $100 million tied to Bitcoin mining and datacenter firm CleanSpark.
