币界网报道:CoreWeave, a leading AI cloud computing provider, has made an unsolicited bid to acquire Bitcoin miner Core Scientific for $5.75 per share, valuing the deal at approximately $1 billion. The offer represents a 55% premium over Core Scientific's closing price on June 3. Following the announcement, Core Scientific's shares surged 33% in premarket trading. CoreWeave, which recently raised $7.5 billion in debt financing, has been expanding its infrastructure to support AI workloads and currently operates five data centers in the U.S. The proposed acquisition would allow CoreWeave to utilize Core Scientific's existing infrastructure for AI operations while maintaining the company's Bitcoin mining business. Core Scientific, which emerged from bankruptcy in January 2024, has been exploring strategic alternatives including potential sales. The company currently operates seven data centers across five U.S. states with a total power capacity of 724 megawatts.
