> **Visual Note:** This bar chart from Bernstein's Pipeline by Crypto Miner series ranks ten Bitcoin mining companies by planned power capacity in megawatts, with IREN leading at 5,800 MW, followed by CIFR (4,027 MW), HUT (3,770 MW), WULF (3,630 MW), MARA (2,829 MW), CORZ (2,555 MW), RIOT (2,000 MW), CLSK (1,835 MW), GLXY (1,704 MW), and BITF (771 MW), totaling approximately 32 GW of planned power—a massive untapped energy reserve that positions these miners, particularly IREN at the top, as key players in addressing the energy bottleneck of the AI race.

> **Visual Note:** The image, titled "The NVIDIA Playbook: Two deals. Both wins," contrasts Nvidia's investments by showing a $2B equity check to $NBIS (cash in the bank with Nvidia on the cap table) versus a $3.4B cloud contract with $IREN (Nvidia as customer, plus a $70 warrant vesting on execution). The graphic visually reinforces the post's argument that while both deals look different, they represent equally valuable wins for Nvidia and the respective companies.

> "With 
$IREN
 and 
$NVDA
 earnings coming up, I keep seeing the Nvidia-IREN deal compared unfavorably to the 
$NBIS
 deal. FinX thinks Nvidia gave 
$NBIS
 $2 billion and gave 
$IREN
 nothing.

Half right. The "nothing" is a $3.4 billion contract.

Both are wins. They're different"

> **Visual Note:** An MSX financial calendar titled '财报日历 (8/24 – 8/28)' listing upcoming US earnings reports for companies including XPEV, LI, CSIQ, MNSO, PDD, BILI, NCTY, INTU, NVDA, MRVL, ZM, CRM, IREN, CRWD, S, and ULTA.

$NVDA
 财报后连续走弱的“魔咒”， 下周三盘后又将迎来检验。

 比特币一周狂飙超20%， 横跨比特币挖矿与 AI 云的 
$IREN
 ，也将在周四盘后交卷。

 英伟达这次能不能打破财报魔咒， 让 AI 股再迎一轮惊喜？
