Riot reports $33 million in first data center revenue as AMD doubles contracted capacity
Summary
Riot Platforms reported $33.2 million in maiden data center revenue for the first quarter, marking a strategic shift toward AI and hyperscale infrastructure. A significant portion of this growth stems from an expanded agreement with AMD, which has doubled its contracted capacity to 50 megawatts. While Bitcoin mining remains Riot's core operation, contributing $111.9 million in revenue, the company is actively diversifying its portfolio and expanding its Rockdale and Corsicana sites to accommodate new data center clients.
