Insights

Financial Strategist

Hyperscale Data shifts to $100M Bitcoin-only treasury strategy, abandoning XRP holdings in a significant cryptocurrency repositioning move.

Hyperscale Data's announcement represents a significant strategic pivot in its digital asset approach, liquidating approximately $100,000 in XRP to pursue an exclusive $100 million Bitcoin treasury strategy. This is no small commitment for a company whose subsidiary currently holds just 15.0022 Bitcoin valued at approximately $1.73 million based on Bitcoin's $115,407 closing price on September 14.

The company's strategy involves two acquisition methods: open market purchases and retention of mined Bitcoin through its subsidiary Sentinum. Notably, their current Bitcoin holdings come exclusively from mining operations rather than market purchases, indicating this treasury buildup represents a substantial new capital allocation decision.

This move aligns with broader corporate treasury trends where companies seek inflation hedges and alternative stores of value. However, the scale of Hyperscale's commitment - $100 million - is particularly ambitious relative to their current $1.73 million holdings, suggesting either significant available capital or a long-term accumulation strategy.

By committing to weekly Tuesday updates on their Bitcoin holdings, management is implementing transparency measures that allow investors to track progress toward their $100 million goal. This regular disclosure approach is somewhat unusual in corporate treasury management but provides a clear accountability mechanism for their stated objectives.

The strategy reflects management's belief in Bitcoin as the "most durable and scalable digital asset," positioning the company at the intersection of AI, blockchain, and digital assets - though the specific synergies between their AI data center operations and Bitcoin treasury remain somewhat undefined in this announcement.

Company to Issue Treasury and Mining Updates Every Tuesday

LAS VEGAS, Sept. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Hyperscale Data, Inc. (NYSE American: GPUS), a diversified holding company ("Hyperscale Data" or the "Company"), today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Sentinum, Inc. ("Sentinum"), plans to liquidate its current holdings of approximately $100,000 $XRP in favor of pursuing a Bitcoin only treasury strategy. This update marks the first step in the Company's $100 million Bitcoin treasury strategy, combining open market purchases with an intention to retain Bitcoin earned from its Bitcoin mining operations.

The Company previously reported on its $XRP strategy, but after further review, has decided to align its digital asset treasury strategy exclusively with Bitcoin. While Ault Capital Group, Inc. ("ACG") may continue to hold $XRP and other digital assets for its lending operations, Hyperscale Data believes Bitcoin is the most important digital asset to pair with its artificial intelligence ("AI") data center strategy. This decision reflects the Company's involvement in Bitcoin mining since December 2017, along with management's commitment to clarity and consistency in its treasury approach.

As the Company refines its digital assets strategy, Hyperscale Data recently announced its intention to place $100 million of Bitcoin directly on its balance sheet. The Company believes Bitcoin is the most durable and scalable digital asset to anchor its treasury, supporting both stability and long-term value creation. The Company will begin making open market purchases of Bitcoin and plans to provide updates every Tuesday.

Based upon the Bitcoin closing price of $115,407 on September 14, 2025, Sentinum's holdings of approximately 15.0022 Bitcoin had a then current market value of approximately $1,731,000. Sentinum's current Bitcoin holdings come from the Bitcoin it has earned from providing hashing services to a mining pool; none of the Bitcoin currently held by Sentinum has been acquired in the open market.

"Hyperscale Data is not a newcomer to the digital asset space," stated Milton "Todd" Ault III, Executive Chairman of Hyperscale Data. "By making Bitcoin the foundation of our treasury, we are aligning the Company with what we believe is the most resilient digital asset. The decision underscores our confidence in Bitcoin and digital assets as the cornerstone of a new digital financial system. We hope to position the Company to capitalize on the convergence of AI, blockchain technology, and digital assets."

The Company reiterates to stockholders that it plans to report its Bitcoin holdings every Tuesday, providing detail on both Bitcoin it has earned through its mining operations as well as open market purchases as it builds toward its goal of putting $100 million of Bitcoin on its balance sheet.

About Hyperscale Data, Inc.

Through its wholly owned subsidiary Sentinum, Hyperscale Data owns and operates a data center at which it mines digital assets and offers colocation and hosting services for the emerging AI ecosystems and other industries. Hyperscale Data's other wholly owned subsidiary, ACG, is a diversified holding company pursuing growth by acquiring undervalued businesses and disruptive technologies with a global impact.

Hyperscale Data currently expects the divestiture of ACG (the "Divestiture") to occur in the first quarter of 2026. Upon the occurrence of the Divestiture, the Company would be an owner and operator of data centers to support high-performance computing services, as well as a holder of the digital assets. Until the Divestiture occurs, the Company will continue to provide, through ACG and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries and strategic investments, mission-critical products that support a diverse range of industries, including an AI software platform, social gaming platform, equipment rental services, defense/aerospace, industrial, automotive, medical/biopharma and hotel operations. In addition, ACG is actively engaged in private credit and structured finance through a licensed lending subsidiary. Hyperscale Data's headquarters are located at 11411 Southern Highlands Parkway, Suite 190, Las Vegas, NV 89141.

On December 23, 2024, the Company issued one million (1,000,000) shares of a newly designated Series F Exchangeable Preferred Stock (the "Series F Preferred Stock") to all common stockholders and holders of the Series C Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis. The Divestiture will occur through the voluntary exchange of the Series F Preferred Stock for shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock of ACG (collectively, the "ACG Shares"). The Company reminds its stockholders that only those holders of the Series F Preferred Stock who agree to surrender such shares, and do not properly withdraw such surrender, in the exchange offer through which the Divestiture will occur, will be entitled to receive the ACG Shares and consequently be shareholders of ACG upon the occurrence of the Divestiture.
