Bitcoin Mining Stocks Plunge 35% as VanEck Sees Oversold Opportunity

Bitcoin mining stocks expanding into AI data center infrastructure dropped an average of 35% in October. VanEck believes the selloff was excessive, arguing that market fears have pushed valuations below what existing business fundamentals would justify. Concerns surrounding rising borrowing costs at AI computing companies spread to Bitcoin miners, despite no reported cancellations of signed lease agreements. Limited electricity capacity and lengthy grid connection delays could give miners a competitive advantage as demand for AI computing infrastructure increases. VanEck views the recent decline as a potential buying opportunity rather than evidence that the industry’s AI expansion strategy is failing. Bitcoin mining companies that have expanded into artificial intelligence infrastructure may be facing an overly pessimistic stock market valuation, according to investment manager VanEck.
