Bitcoin mining-focused infrastructure firm Luxor said it is expanding its hardware business into the high-growth AI and high-performance computing market, extending its sourcing, logistics, and financing capabilities beyond ASICs to GPUs and AI servers.

The move comes at a time when several Bitcoin miners have been diversifying their operations into serving the burgeoning AI sector.

While Bitcoin mining ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit) machines are not suitable for AI workloads, operators' underlying infrastructure — including lucrative power supply contracts, physical sites, and advanced cooling systems — can be adapted for GPU hosting, making AI data center diversification an attractive option for mining firms amid the boom.

In a statement shared with The Block, the company said the shift aims to address a central industry bottleneck: a physical shortage of deployed compute capacity limiting AI advancement.

Luxor said it has procured more than $750 million worth of ASICs for Bitcoin miners since its inception, a track record it now plans to apply to GPU and server procurement.

The expansion introduces end-to-end sourcing solutions, installation, and colocation build-out for new, refurbished, and used hardware through direct relationships with major manufacturers and distributors, including Dell, HPE, Lenovo, and PNY. Also, the company will offer logistics options supported by U.S. warehouses, in-house capabilities, and international partners.

Supporting miners moving into AI and HPC

The firm said the Bitcoin mining network currently represents nearly 20 GW of deployed data center capacity globally, with an additional 10 GW of potential expansion, 35% to 40% of which is in the U.S. As mining firms convert portions of that footprint to AI and HPC infrastructure hosting, Luxor is adapting its offerings to meet that shift.

Luxor added that it remains the only mining pool with integrated financing and hedging capabilities, enabling miners to leverage existing hashrate to access capital for GPU purchases. The firm said it can also arrange additional financing — including sale-leaseback structures — through its network of partners, while its cloud compute marketplace, Tenki, allows operators to monetize CPU and accelerated compute capacity immediately after deployment.

"We operate at the precise intersection of compute, energy, and infrastructure," Head of Hardware and Software Lauren Lin said, adding that Luxor understands how these sectors interact and is expanding to assist customers' multi-billion-dollar capital-deployment plans.

To support such large-scale deployments, the company said it has built a logistics network that includes tax-advantaged warehousing in Montana and Delaware, original equipment manufacturer installation, warranty management, export control compliance, and hardware liquidation services for legacy equipment.
