How we checked this
Checked on September 29, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.
The article mentions a planned $180 million 'AMD term loan' used in calculating the data center funding need, but it does not say AMD is the lender; the name may refer to the AMD project rather than the source of the funds.
Confirmed in the source:
- Riot has a planned $180 million term loan referred to as the AMD term loan
- The planned AMD term loan factors into the financing of Riot's data center build
We could not confirm this from the cited source:
- AMD itself is the lender of Riot's planned $180 million term loan
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.
