Crypto Market Is Red Today

The Crypto trading volume records a $418 billion trade. The top 100 tokens went down from yesterday’s highs by market cap. All top 10 coins and above the market caps were lost today. Bitcoin (BTC) shrunk by 2.9%, equivalent to $99,145. On the other hand, Ethereum (ETH), however, is gaining 3.6% and traded at $4,027.
Aethir Launches $40M TACOM Initiative
Aethir is releasing Tactical Compute (TACOM) in collaboration with Sophon Foundation, a decentralized GPU-as-a-Service provider, Beam Foundation, and Permian Labs. This press release was supplied to Crypto News by TACOM, a $40 million plan that aims to address the increasing demand for scalable computer infrastructure on a global scale.
It accomplishes this by bridging the gap between decentralized technology and conventional computer economics and integrating tokenization with distributed solutions driven by artificial intelligence and blockchain advances. Aside from that, the statement also noted that TACOM will bundle GPU resource access into a system just like cloud credits. The decentralized system will be utilized to tokenize the framework.
This will focus on computing-based activities, including hardware financing, yield arbitrage, and network bootstrapping. “TACOM: The teams claimed that their novel combination of resources, expertise, and networks will completely alter the current paradigm for the valuation, distribution, and monetization of computing power. Instead, Aether’s strategic partner, Sophon, will have already begun establishing its infrastructure simultaneously.
Bitcoin Miners Raise $5.2B in Notes
According to the most recent Miner Weekly report by BlocksBridge Consulting, seven publicly listed Bitcoin mining and data center businesses have funded $5.2 billion through convertible notes since June. Citing TheMinerMag, it stated that $3.6 billion—or 70%- in the last four weeks—has been raised.
According to the research, convertible notes are a financial instrument that allows businesses to borrow money with the promise of future equity conversion, subject to several restrictions. In the past several weeks, the zero-coupon convertible notes have helped MARA and Core Scientific raise over $2.4 billion. All told, MARA brought in $1.85 billion.
Both firms established their conversion prices when their shares were issued, around 40% more than their typical stock prices. According to the research, forgoing interest payments (zero-coupon) is what investors do. Instead, they’re putting their money on these companies’ stock values, increasing by at least 40% from where they are now, barring any other conversion requirements from being satisfied.
