BTC Investors may have seriously underestimated the value of Bitcoin miners that have turned to AI data centers
According to Compass Point analysts Michael Donovan and Ed Engel, those Bitcoin miners that have turned to AI data centers are being significantly undervalued by the market. These mining companies should be more accurately assessed as \"landlords\"-obtaining stable rental income through long-term AI leasing.
To test this view, Compass Point estimated future rental income (net of remaining construction costs) corresponding to signed contracts, and then compared this figure to the corporate value of each company. The purpose is to clarify how much of the company\'s valuation comes from contracted business and how much comes from speculative future development projects with undetermined tenants.
The value that the market may miss
The report shows that Bitcoin miners such as Applied Digital, TeraWulf and Cipher Digital have the largest gap between their contracted business and their current valuations. This suggests that the market has given extremely low value to the additional AI computing power that these companies have not yet rented.
Core Scientific and Riot Platforms stand out for different reasons. Core Scientific\'s existing contracts are basically reflected in pricing, which means that further upside depends on the signing of new customers. Riot\'s valuation is based more on the prospects of its Corsicana campus and broader projects than on current contract revenue.
Compass Point said the next two years will be a turning point-as these companies move from previously announcing AI infrastructure deals to actually delivering them. As data centers become operational and tenants start paying rent, investors will have a clearer view of the recurring cash flow these venues can generate-a stark contrast to bitcoin mining revenue that fluctuates with cryptocurrency prices.
Over the past year,\"transforming from miner to AI data center\" has become one of the strongest AI-related narratives in the market. However, returns have been mixed as investors weigh construction cycles, financing needs and leasing schedules. The agency pointed out that after the recent overall correction in the sector, the market may be entering a new phase-the factor determining the valuation of these stocks will no longer be \"announcements\" but \"actual execution.\"
