Modular Capital argues the U.S. power deficit of 50 GW through 2028 makes Bitcoin miners' converted data centers the lowest-cost path to AI infrastructure, with energized capacity priced at $30–50/MWh versus $80–150/MWh for alternatives like nuclear and fuel cells. Bitcoin miners holding 10+ GW of approved grid interconnection now command structural economics worth $5–10M per gross megawatt in HPC colocation deals, with recent transactions clearing at $1.24–$2.17 per critical IT watt annually and 80–97% EBITDA margins, while the sector at $4M equity value per approved MW implies only 50% conversion pricing, leaving asymmetric upside for operators with large approved portfolios and credible execution track records.

Sam argues Galaxy's recent 30% gain understates its potential given newly approved 830 MW at Helios (doubling approved capacity to 1.6 GW) layered onto an already-cheap valuation. The 1.6 GW scenario implies ~$80/share equity value at full build and ~$40/share present value, combined with Galaxy's Digital Assets segment (60% of base case, supported by CLARITY crypto legislation and on-chain innovations like tokenized equity and commercial paper issuance) points to total valuation above $80/share versus Friday's $31.90 close. Execution on contracting the new power tranche and visible construction progress remain critical catalysts.
