Hyperscale Data Inc., a diversified holding company in Las Vegas, has announced that it is upgrading its fleet of Bitcoin miners as part of a broader strategic initiative to optimize its Michigan data center operations in Dowagiac (southwest of Kalamazoo, close to the Indiana border).
The company has made the strategic decision to dedicate a portion of its Michigan Facility to continue Bitcoin mining alongside its expanding artificial intelligence infrastructure.
Hyperscale Data confirmed that it is upgrading to Bitmain Antminer S21+ Bitcoin miners (“S21+”), a move expected to significantly increase Bitcoin production yield over the coming year.
The S21+ operates at 235 terahashes per second, which represents a 135 percent increase in processing speed from Hyperscale Data’s older S19J Pro Bitcoin miners (“S19J Pro”).
As a result of the increased processing speed, a S21+ produces approximately 2.35 Bitcoin for each Bitcoin produced by a S19J Pro.
The company emphasized that maintaining Bitcoin operations while deploying NVIDIA-powered AI clusters positions Hyperscale Data well among U.S. data center operators, leveraging both digital asset computing and AI growth trends from a single, strategically located facility.
The dual-focus strategy allows Hyperscale Data to capitalize on its existing Bitcoin mining infrastructure while advancing its long-term goal of building a world-class AI data center.
The Michigan Facility, situated on approximately 34.5 acres and spanning 617,000 square feet, will host both AI compute clusters and advanced Bitcoin miners operating side-by-side.
“We believe this balanced approach is the right path forward,” says William B. Horne, CEO of Hyperscale Data. “While the build-out of our AI capabilities will take time, it is important that we continue to generate value from our existing infrastructure through Bitcoin mining.
“By integrating both AI and Bitcoin operations under one roof, we are able to maximize efficiency, optimize asset utilization, and position the Michigan Facility for long-term growth. As we expand power capacity over time, we expect to maintain meaningful Bitcoin mining operations alongside our AI initiatives.”
The company stated it does not plan to sell any of its Bitcoin holdings at this time and will continue to implement its Digital Asset Treasury Strategy.
As previously stated, Hyperscale Data will continue to issue updates every Tuesday detailing its total Bitcoin holdings and the amount of cash reserved for its ongoing dollar-cost averaging program to acquire additional Bitcoin. The company believes it is in the best interest of its stockholders to pair its Bitcoin holdings with its market capitalization and intends to use all newly mined Bitcoin to strengthen and expand its corporate treasury.
Hyperscale Data is in the process of expanding its AI service capabilities in the Michigan Facility with advanced NVIDIA hardware, including the next-generation Blackwell architecture.
In Related News, Hyperscale Data recently outlined plans to increase the capacity of its artificial intelligence data center in Dowagiac to 340 megawatts (MW).
The company expects the increase in power to support AI, machine learning, and high-performance computing workloads.
It currently operates approximately 30 MW of power at the facility, and expects to increase the power capacity to 70 MW over the next 20 months. The full 340 MW buildout is anticipated within 44 months from execution of an agreement with the local utility provider and securing appropriate funding.
