It closed the day below the level we saw in the video below, despite that, the contract expiration I sold in the video came to an end, leaving a nice premium. The contract expired invalidly, bringing in $780 premium from this trade. Thus, the freed-up cash collateral +"

> "Cipher Mining (How Significant is the Demand for Energy?)

Suppose Amazon or Google try to buy them out for total ownership of their power. Would Cipher likely agree to this? Cipher has long-term 15-year leases with Amazon AWS, Google and Fluidstack. What would prevent these giants in say, 2-years, canceling their agreements with Cipher and simply developing their own power resources? I'm trying to see this from Amazon, Google, etc. perspective. Is Cipher (and other companies such as IREN, etc.) simply bridges to their own power sources 2 years or so down the road? Will Cipher and IREN and others be left at the altar once hyperscalers get their stuff together and power their own AI applications? Or, are they really at the mercy of what Cipher and others (IREN, etc.) have to offer?"
