Core Scientific plans to sell over 2,500 BTC (worth ~$165 million) in Q1 2026 to transition to AI infrastructure. The company held 2,537 BTC (valued ~$222 million) at end of 2025 after accumulating in 2025, but will sell nearly all reserves in 2026. This reflects a broader trend of miners selling BTC to invest in AI.
