How we checked this
Checked on September 17, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.
The filing confirms the buyer, the $85 million cash price and the working capital adjustment. However, TeraWulf's subsidiary sold only its own stake in Nautilus, not all of Nautilus's equity, because the buyer was already a member.
Confirmed in the source:
- A TeraWulf subsidiary, TeraWulf (Thales) LLC, agreed to sell its equity interests in Nautilus Cryptomine LLC and the Nautilus Cryptomine facility
- The buyer was Cumulus Coin LLC, an affiliate of Talen Energy Corporation
- The price was $85,000,000 in cash paid at closing
- The price is subject to a customary working capital adjustment
- The sale closed on October 2, 2024, at signing
We could not confirm this from the cited source:
- That TeraWulf sold all equity interests in Nautilus Cryptomine LLC; the filing says the subsidiary sold all of its own interest, and Cumulus Coin LLC was already a member of Nautilus
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 (https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1083301/000095014224002511/eh240539927_8k.htm) in full (10,383 characters, retrieved August 31, 2026) and checked each assertion in the claim against it.
