Daily Report Part 3/3 — Key Companies 2026-04-29

🏢 Public Mining Companies

Bitdeer (BTDR)

Marathon (MARA)

  • Today's highlight — BTC2026 Day 3 CEO panel: Fred Thiel with CleanSpark CEO Matt Schultz on "Powering The Future Economy: How HPC + Bitcoin Mining Changes Energy Markets", moderated by BlocksBridge Consulting founder https://x.com/MARAFoundation_/status/2049208846510596153
  • Foundation grant vote enters final 24h: 256 Foundation (37%) vs Libreria de Satoshi (35%) vs SateNet (28%); margins razor-thin, lead has changed multiple times https://x.com/MARAFoundation_/status/2049283585115619452
  • Foundation positioning statement: MARA posts that Foundation is "a long-term commitment to Bitcoin's core pillars", supporting builders/educators/researchers https://x.com/MARA/status/2049209765944062176
  • Note: BTC2026 three-day full coverage — Congressional breakfast (Day 2) + AI infrastructure roundtable (Day 2) + CEO panel (Day 3) + Foundation vote; highest conference density among all miners, but no new business/financial announcements in three days

Riot (RIOT)

  • Low activity: Latest post remains March 3 (57+ days ago), FY2025 earnings release https://x.com/RiotPlatforms/status/2028848241396121980
  • Note: BTC2026 three days (Apr 27-29) with zero conference announcements or social media activity from Riot; only miner with extended silence

CleanSpark (CLSK)

Hut 8 (HUT)

  • Today's major — $3.25B investment-grade senior secured notes priced: Fully amortizing notes, maturing 2042 (16 years), financing River Bend campus 245 MW turnkey data center construction. Investment-grade rating is extremely rare among miners https://x.com/Hut8Corp/status/2049108992983486619
  • Note: From 8 consecutive days of silence to today's major financing announcement. Scale comparable to Core Scientific's $3.3B notes, forming an AI data center financing duopoly, but Hut 8's term is longer (16 years vs 5 years) and investment-grade

Core Scientific (CORZ)

Bitmain

Group Key Theme: Today's biggest news is Hut 8's $3.25B investment-grade notes (maturing 2042), forming an AI data center financing duopoly with Core Scientific's $3.3B from last week — combined ~$6.6B in debt firepower. MARA had full BTC2026 coverage but no hard announcements. CleanSpark had booth + CEO speaking. Bitdeer active on AI front but absent from BTC2026. Bitmain exhibited. Riot's 57-day silence remains abnormal.

Action Items Summary

Combined from Part 1 + Part 2 + Part 3:

🔴 Urgent

  1. stakefish Cosmos proposal vote controversy requires immediate response — Cosmos community continues criticizing stakefish for voting YES on scam proposal #1030; over 5 days with no response; sentiment is escalating. Recommend coordinating a public statement or vote change today.

  2. SSV ETH-denominated payment migration — top-up window closing soon — SSV top-ups shutting down; only path is migration to ETH payments. Confirm whether any internal SSV operations are affected.

  3. Lido DVV incentives expiring end of April — dvstETH holders must migrate to EarnETH before expiry, but EarnETH deposits are paused due to Kelp incident — operational deadlock risk.

🟡 Important

  1. Hut 8 + Core Scientific combined ~$6.6B AI data center financing — Miner-to-AI infrastructure pivot accelerating; Hut 8's $3.25B investment-grade notes (maturing 2042) are the industry's longest-term, highest-rated single financing. Monitor impact on hashrate market dynamics.

  2. Bitcoin block space spam reaches 45% all-time high — CunyRenaud data confirms; BIP-110 node coverage at ~20%; major pools still on the sidelines. f2pool as a major pool should evaluate whether to take a public stance.

  3. f2pool NAT officially live — Now the second major pool supporting NAT distribution after SpiderPool; combined ~21.9% network hashrate. Monitor community feedback and miner participation.

  4. Strategy STRC semi-monthly dividend + Strata USDat launching tomorrow — Strategy credit product ecosystem accelerating; Saturn TVL broke $100M in 20 days. Watch USDat launch market reaction.

  5. ether.fi weETH bridge contraction across 8 chains — Resource concentration strategy may impact weETH liquidity on affected chains; check for any exposure.

🟢 Positive

  1. SSV Staking launches today — Stake SSV to earn ETH validator revenue; Genesis Boost extra rewards for first 30 days; worth monitoring early participation opportunity.

  2. Jito Q1 report shows strong growth — BAM validators doubled (233→363), staking share 14%→28%, delegated SOL doubled to 119.3M. Solana staking sector continues expanding.

  3. stETH receives Staking Rewards DeFi highest rating A+ — Positive endorsement for Lido ecosystem brand and institutional trust.

  4. Anthropic ARR surpasses OpenAI for the first time — 15 months from $1B to $30B; AI sector competitive landscape shifting, Anthropic growth rate leading.
