How we checked this

Checked on October 12, 2026. The cited source does not support this claim.

The 2024 goals slide lists its labels in the order hash rate, HPC MW and bitcoin MW, with values 21.8, 16 and ~800. That pairs about 800 MW with bitcoin infrastructure and 16 MW with HPC, the reverse of this claim.

We could not confirm this from the cited source:

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 IR page (investors.corescientific.com) (https://d1io3yog0oux5.cloudfront.net/_fda3a1f2f1890adaa7ac6c4d9d310971/corescientific/db/1066/11129/pdf/Core_Scientific_Q2_2024_Earnings_Presentation.pdf) in full (24,266 characters, retrieved September 26, 2026) and checked each assertion in the claim against it.

Record of changes

September 26, 2026 — stated
Automated extraction from the cited source. Recorded automatically from the cited source when it was published, then queued for evidence review.
September 26, 2026 — withdrawn
Evidence review against the cited source. In the flattened table the values map in label order (21.8 EH/s hash rate, 16 MW HPC, ~800 MW bitcoin), so the 2024 HPC target is 16 MW; ~800 MW is the bitcoin infrastructure target, and an 800 MW HPC figure would also exceed the 382 MW total HPC contracted.
