Dan Loeb's hedge fund Third Point bought $40.8 million worth of shares in Hut 8, a company transitioning from Bitcoin mining to AI data center operations. Hut 8's Q1 2026 revenue surged to $71 million, mostly from compute services rather than crypto mining, backed by $9.8 billion in long-term contracts. This shift reflects growing institutional interest in hybrid crypto-AI firms and could change how Hut 8 is valued, moving from crypto metrics to data center benchmarks. Despite rapid stock gains, Loeb dismisses AI bubble concerns, citing strong earnings from major tech clients.
