On the other hand, a market performance rating is a neutral evaluation expressing the predicted average performance.<\/p>\n<p>Five main criteria form the foundation of the assessments: production and hash rate, operational and energy efficiency, power, hash costs, and the artificial intelligence strategy of every organization.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bernstein<\/strong> claims that <strong>Marathon<\/strong>, Core Scientific, and CleanSpark are the three biggest bitcoin generators; the latter two particularly stand out with their realized hash rates. Riot is trailing in output and efficiency at the same time; last month, power credits helped to mitigate this.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding operational and energy efficiency, <strong>Bernstein<\/strong> asserts CleanSpark and IREN &#8220;<em>are in the sweet spots of energy efficiency and realized hash rate\/uptime<\/em>.&#8221; By switching to a self-mining approach, <strong>Marathon<\/strong> is also seen by the analysts as enhancing its uptime efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding operating power capacity, <strong>Bernstein<\/strong> pointed out Riot and Core Scientific. IREN may, however, catch up going forward since it apparently &#8220;<em>has two mega sites in the works<\/em>&#8221; in Texas.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks mostly to low power costs and good uptime, Core Scientific is also the &#8220;best in class&#8221; when it comes to hash cost. While <strong>Marathon<\/strong> keeps striving to lower its hash cost, Riot and CleanSpark lead Core Scientific in this measure.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, having committed large funds to data centers, Core Scientific is &#8220;<em>a clear leader on AI strategy<\/em>,&#8221; <strong>Bernstein<\/strong> notes. Thanks to its Texas mega sites being open for agreements with AI hyperscalers and the hire of Morgan Stanley to investigate AI deals for these sites, the analysts found IREN to be &#8220;a promising&#8221; narrative regarding AI\/HPC.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em class=\"darkmysite_style_txt_border darkmysite_processed\" data-darkmysite_alpha_bg=\"rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\">You can also freely share your thoughts and comments about the topic in the comment section.
