An interesting point with Core Scientific. The company released quarterly results, and a curious situation emerges. On one hand, total revenue dropped to $79.8 million compared to $94.9 million a year earlier. Sounds like a decline, right? But if you dig deeper, the picture isn't entirely clear-cut. Here's what’s happening: income from Bitcoin mining itself plummeted from $79.9 million to $42.2 million. That's a significant drop, no doubt. It seems mining is becoming less profitable or volumes have decreased. However, the second part of the business shows a completely different dynamic. Data center hosting services increased from $8.5 million to $31.3 million. That's a substantial growth. It turns out the company is shifting toward renting out computing power instead of mining itself. It's a kind of diversification of revenue streams, if you can call it that. It'll be interesting to see whether this strategy works in the long run or if it's just a temporary maneuver.
