Company Description
SOLAI Limited (NYSE: SLAI), previously known as BIT Mining Limited and formerly trading under the ticker BTCM, is described by the company as a technology-driven cryptocurrency infrastructure business. According to its public statements, SOLAI is expanding from a foundation in crypto mining to build a broader blockchain-based ecosystem that spans artificial intelligence (AI), stablecoins, payment infrastructure, and Solana-focused treasury and staking operations.
The company states that its ecosystem strategy is intended to support use cases across institutional settlement, commerce, consumer payments, and AI-native agent transactions. By applying its blockchain and data infrastructure expertise, SOLAI reports that it aims to enhance on-chain efficiency and increase participation across the Solana network and other blockchain ecosystems.
Business focus and evolution
SOLAI describes its origins as a pure-play cryptocurrency mining company. Over time, it has communicated a transition toward a broader cryptocurrency infrastructure model. This transition includes:
- Maintaining a self-mining business that generates revenue from mining cryptocurrencies such as BTC, DOGE, LTC and other digital assets.
- Operating a data center business, including an 82.5 megawatt space at an Ohio mining site that generates service fee revenue.
- Developing a Solana treasury and staking strategy, which the company reports is actively generating yield and includes an independent validator node on the Solana network.
- Working on a stablecoin initiative referred to as DOLAI, where the company has stated it has validated core technology and is exploring cross-border payment use cases.
Through these activities, SOLAI presents itself as moving beyond mining to support a wider set of digital asset and blockchain applications, particularly within the Solana ecosystem.
Solana ecosystem and AI-related initiatives
The company highlights the Solana ecosystem as a strategic focus area. It reports that it has launched a validator node on Solana and begun staking SOL purchased as part of a broader ecosystem strategy. SOLAI links this activity to its goal of building on-chain intelligent financial infrastructure and supporting AI-native agent transactions.
In its public communications, SOLAI connects AI with blockchain infrastructure, describing an ambition to support AI-related transaction flows and to integrate AI with payment and settlement mechanisms on-chain. The company characterizes its rebrand from BIT Mining Limited to SOLAI Limited as reflecting this strategic shift toward AI and the Solana ecosystem.
Stablecoins and payment infrastructure
SOLAI states that it is developing stablecoin and payment infrastructure capabilities. It has disclosed work on DOLAI, a stablecoin-related technology that it associates with cross-border payment use cases. The company describes this as part of a broader effort to support institutional settlement, commerce, and consumer payments on blockchain networks.
According to its statements, SOLAI intends for its stablecoin and payment infrastructure work to lower barriers for participation in blockchain-based financial applications and to improve capital efficiency in digital asset transactions.
Data center and mining operations
Alongside its newer initiatives, SOLAI continues to report detailed results from its mining and data center operations. The company has disclosed that:
- Its self-mining business produces multiple cryptocurrencies, including BTC and DOGE/LTC, and generates related revenue.
- Its data center operations include an 82.5 megawatt space at an Ohio mining site, which earns service fees from data center customers.
- Its cost structure is influenced by electricity costs, depreciation and amortization, and other operating items tied to data center and mining assets.
These operations form a significant part of the company’s reported revenue and expenses, and they provide the infrastructure base that SOLAI references in connection with its broader digital asset and blockchain ambitions.

SOLAI has reported a number of corporate actions and governance developments. The company has communicated:
- A change of its English name from BIT Mining Limited to SOLAI Limited and a ticker symbol change from BTCM to SLAI on the New York Stock Exchange.
