What was said
"It's so economical to sell your power to AI companies now. You get a 10-year deal for billions of dollars instead of mining Bitcoin at a paltry sum at this price."
Tyler described how Bitcoin miners are abandoning mining operations in favor of long-term power contracts with AI companies due to rising electricity costs from data center demand. He characterized this as an arbitrage between centralization and decentralization that will continue cycling as AI infrastructure is overbuilt then capacity becomes advantageous for Bitcoin mining again.
