AI computing power is emerging as a significant source of new electricity demand in the United States, coinciding with a pivotal moment for Bitcoin miners. According to BlockBeats, miners are now faced with the decision to either continue mining or lease their infrastructure to AI companies. This trend is becoming increasingly evident. Core Scientific has shifted much of its mining power to AI hosting services through a partnership with CoreWeave. Similarly, Iris Energy and Hut 8 have expanded their AI and high-performance computing (HPC) revenue streams. Last week, Riot Platforms, MARA Holdings, and Genius Group disclosed the sale of over 19,000 Bitcoins, indicating that relying solely on mining is becoming less viable due to current prices and network difficulties. A Bitcoin miner operating at 1 gigawatt capacity sees income fluctuate with Bitcoin prices and network challenges, whereas leasing the same capacity to AI firms offers contractually agreed returns and predictable cash flow. With Bitcoin prices at $69,000, network difficulty at an all-time high, and energy costs rising as industrial users compete for grid capacity, leasing computing power to AI companies often yields higher returns. However, this does not signal the end of Bitcoin mining. Network power continues to exceed 1 zetahash per second. Miners surviving this cycle may increasingly resemble infrastructure companies, mining Bitcoin while leasing their primary asset—large-scale, low-cost electricity—to the AI sector, which cannot rapidly build data centers.

India's central bank is expected to keep its interest rates unchanged on Wednesday, marking its first policy decision since the onset of the Iran conflict. According to Jin10, the bank is striving to balance economic growth support with addressing the significant depreciation of the rupee. All 30 economists surveyed by Bloomberg anticipate that the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) will maintain the benchmark repo rate at 5.25%. Despite a dimming economic outlook since the last meeting, the RBI had previously indicated a prolonged pause in rate changes. The Middle East crisis has placed the Monetary Policy Committee in a challenging position. The rupee's decline since the conflict began has become a major pressure point, prompting the RBI to take its most aggressive measures in over a decade to curb speculative bets against the currency. The central bank now faces a dilemma: whether to raise rates to support the rupee or keep borrowing costs low to cushion economic growth.

Jin10 reported on April 7 that recent news of the departure of Tian, a sponsor representative for Blue Arrow Aerospace's IPO project, has drawn industry attention. Concerns arose regarding whether this change might impact Blue Arrow's IPO process.

A company representative stated, 'Currently, Blue Arrow Aerospace's listing work is proceeding as planned, with all application and review preparations advancing according to the process. The overall progress is in line with expectations, and the company will continue to strictly adhere to regulatory requirements to steadily advance subsequent listing-related work.'
