TeraWulf, a bitcoin miner, has signed a 20-year lease with Anthropic for data center infrastructure, a deal expected to generate about $19 billion in contracted revenue. The lease covers a purpose-built AI infrastructure campus at TeraWulf’s Justified Data site in Hawesville, Kentucky.

The campus will support about 401 megawatts of critical IT load, with initial capacity expected online in the second half of 2027 and full capacity by early 2028. This deal secures long-term, recurring revenue for TeraWulf from an AI customer as it shifts away from relying on bitcoin mining.
Separately, TeraWulf agreed to sell its 50.1% stake in the Abernathy joint venture to an investor group led by partner Fluidstack. The sale monetizes TeraWulf’s roughly $450 million investment at a premium to invested capital and frees up capital for wholly owned AI infrastructure projects.
