TeraWulf(NASDAQ: WULF)soared 60% on Thursday<\/a> to close at $8.71, driven by staggering volume — over 286 million shares traded, more than six times its 3-month average. The jump followed news that the company signed two 10-year AI hosting agreements with Fluidstack, establishing itself as a serious player in hyperscale digital infrastructure. The contracts, valued at $3.7 billion with potential to reach $8.7 billion, will support over 200 megawatts of liquid-cooled IT load at its Lake Mariner data center.<\/p>\n

The broader market traded flat by comparison. The S&P 500 inched up 0.03%, while the Nasdaq Composite slipped by 0.01%. Investors showed modest appetite for risk across tech and AI sectors, while TeraWulf bucked the trend with its sector-defining announcement.<\/p>\n

Crypto mining<\/a> peers posted mixed results. MARA Holdings(NASDAQ: MARA) dipped 0.7% to $15.75, while Riot Platforms(NASDAQ: RIOT) gained 5.7% to close at $12.25. Still, neither matched the intensity of TeraWulf’s rally, which reflected the company’s strategic pivot beyond mining.<\/p>\n

The game-changing news: Alphabet’s Google will backstop $1.8 billion of Fluidstack’s lease obligations in support of the project and receive warrants for roughly 8% equity in TeraWulf. With AI infrastructure demand surging, this partnership aligns WULF with a Tier 1 hyperscaler and signals major institutional confidence. The move could fundamentally reshape TeraWulf’s long-term trajectory — and investors took notice.<\/p>\n
