Partnership with Block for mining chips and paradigm shift in Bitcoin mining

Checked on September 23, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.

The article reports these as the views of Core Scientific executive Russell Cann, not as established outcomes. The claim presents them as fact without that attribution.

Confirmed in the source:

• Core Scientific has a partnership with Block for Bitcoin mining chips
• Russell Cann, Core Scientific's Chief Development Officer, said the partnership will 'define a new paradigm for scaled Bitcoin mining'
• Russell Cann said he believes the partnership will benefit Core Scientific's operations

We could not confirm this from the cited source:

• That the partnership will in fact define a new paradigm for scaled Bitcoin mining, as opposed to an executive's prediction
• That the partnership will in fact benefit Core Scientific's operations, as opposed to an executive's expectation

That does not mean it is false — only that this source does not establish it, as of the date above. If we find a source that settles it, we will re-check and update this page.
