How we checked this
Checked on October 17, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.
The article quotes TeraWulf's $4.0–4.5 billion estimate and its exclusion of customer computing investment. It does not explicitly say the estimate is for Muskie, and it states elsewhere that the campus's capital cost has not been disclosed.
Confirmed in the source:
- In an August 24, 2026 statement, TeraWulf estimated about $4.0 billion to $4.5 billion of investment in site development and initial data halls.
- That estimate excludes additional customer investment in computing equipment and related infrastructure.
We could not confirm this from the cited source:
- The $4.0 billion to $4.5 billion estimate applies specifically to the Muskie campus. The article places the quote in its Muskie coverage but never names the site, and it also says the company has not disclosed the campus's capital cost.
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.
