The new agreement provides TeraWulf with up to $1.4 billion in additional funding from Google, bringing the total investment to about $3.2 billion. This deal increases Google\u2019s stake in the company to 14% from 8% and includes an option to purchase an additional 32.5 million shares.<\/p>\n

Google Looks to Support Fluidstack Deal<\/p>\n

This announcement comes after WULF stock skyrocketed last week on securing two 10-year computing deals with AI cloud provider Fluidstack. The plan includes a new data center that will add 160 megawatts (MW) of IT capacity at the Lake Mariner campus.<\/p>\n

TeraWulf also stated that the deal is expected to generate $6.7 billion in contracted revenue, with potential to reach $16 billion through lease extensions. Operations at the expanded facility are anticipated to begin in the second half of 2026.<\/p>\n

Separately, WULF also launched a $400 million convertible notes<\/a> offering to fund expansion, signaling confidence in its long-term growth strategy.<\/p>\n

Backed by Google, the deal helps reduce financial risk and reflects that TeraWulf\u2019s shift from crypto<\/a> to AI is gaining support. As demand for powerful AI hosting grows, this move could be a big step forward for TeraWulf.<\/p>\n

Is WULF a Good Stock to Buy?<\/p>\n

Turning to Wall Street, WULF stock has a Strong Buy consensus rating based on\u00a010 Buys and two Holds assigned in the last three months. At $11.08, the\u00a0average TeraWulf stock price target<\/a>\u00a0implies a 17.25% upside potential.<\/p>\n
