How we checked this
Checked on September 16, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.
The $9.1 billion figure and the base-term end date are stated in the article; the Anthropic attribution is reported but unconfirmed.
Confirmed in the source:
- The lease is expected to produce $9.1 billion of revenue over its initial term
- The initial term is a 20-year base term running through June 2048
We could not confirm this from the cited source:
- That the tenant on this lease is Anthropic as a confirmed fact — the article says neither company has publicly confirmed the counterparty
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 the publisher (https://financefeeds.com/riot-platforms-just-signed-a-9-1-billion-ai-lease-reportedly-with-anthropic-and-shares-jumped-25/) in full (12,592 characters, retrieved September 2, 2026) and checked each assertion in the claim against it.
