They Raised $153M?! Blockchain and AI Just Got a Mel Brooks Makeover!

Hold onto your hats, folks, because Auradine – yes, that U.S. outfit dabbling in energy-saving blockchain wizardry and artificial intelligence mojo – just hauled in a whopping $153 million in Series C funding! That’s enough dough to make Scrooge McDuck do a double-take. 💰🦆

Auradine’s Piggy Bank Hits $300M, and They’re Just Getting Started!

The oversubscribed round was the hottest ticket in town, starring Stepstone Group as the headliner, backed by a star-studded cast: Maverick Silicon, Premji Invest, Samsung Catalyst Fund, Qualcomm Ventures, and a few other financial wizards who clearly love shiny toys. All in all, Auradine’s total treasure chest now sits pretty at over $300 million, set to turbocharge their plan to serve up scalable, green, and downright sexy tech for bitcoin (BTC) miners and AI brainiacs’ data dens.

And wait—there’s more! Auradine just birthed Auralinks AI, a brand-new squad of smartypants from Cisco, Google, and Microsoft fame, who’ve come together to tackle AI data center headaches like bandwidth bottlenecks and the age-old nightmare of overheating. If you think this sounds like a superhero team-up, you’re not wrong. Auradine dropped the news about Auralinks back in December, but hey, it’s never old news when you’ve got cool stuff cooking.

Oh, and if you thought the excitement stops there, think again! They unleashed the Teraflux 3nm bitcoin miners—fancy gadgets like the AH3880 model, a U.S.-born, hydro-cooled beast pumping out a mind-blowing 600 terahashes per second. That’s like some kind of crypto espresso machine firing on all cylinders! Over 40 bitcoin (BTC) data centers have already invited Auradine’s cooling tech to the party, leaving the competition—Bitmain, Microbt, and the usual suspects—in the dust.

Born in 2022, Auradine is the scrappy new kid on the blockchain block, scooping up nods from the Global Semiconductor Alliance and hobnobbing with top-secret clubs like Ultra Accelerator Link (sounds spy-worthy, doesn’t it?).

Silicon Valley is their playground, and with the U.S. spotlight on them, Auradine’s pulling all sorts of tech rabbits out of their hat. Meanwhile, industry rivals like Bitmain, Bitdeer, Microbt, and Canaan are scrambling to set up shop stateside, probably because the Trump administration’s tariff policies have turned the production game into a high-stakes reality show. Grab your popcorn! 🍿
