How we checked this
Checked on September 27, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.
The document gives 1/31/2027 as a Phase II Commencement Date, but only as a key model assumption subject to construction timeline and other factors. It names the project 'Cipher Compute', not 'Cipher Compute 2'.
Confirmed in the source:
- Cipher's financing model assumes a Phase II Commencement Date of January 31, 2027
We could not confirm this from the cited source:
- The facility is named 'Cipher Compute 2' (the document calls it 'Cipher Compute'; the '2' appears to be a page number)
- Phase II will commence operations on that date, rather than the date being a modeling assumption for a commencement date
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.
What we did: Read our cached copy of SEC EDGAR (8-K Ex) (https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1819989/000095010325015073/dp237633_ex9902.htm) in full (12,658 characters, retrieved September 25, 2026) and checked each assertion in the claim against it.
