Marc van der Chijs, an entrepreneur who co-founded then bitcoin miner Hut 8 (HUT), has become increasingly concerned about the technology to which the company has pivoted: artificial intelligence. “I’ve become more of a doomer over the past week, to be honest,” he told CoinDesk in an interview. The concern marks a shift for an investor who compares AI’s potential today with bitcoin when he entered the market in 2013.

Some chart watchers argue that a clean close above $83,000 would open the door to a bigger structural move, one that could eventually stretch toward $160,000, though that figure is framed as a projection tied to a specific pattern playing out, not a forecast of where price is headed.

The Blockchain and Digital Mining Association of Kazakhstan estimates that the country’s flared gas might produce somewhere between 1.2 and 1.3 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity.
