Revenue from Bitcoin miner TeraWulf Inc.’s high-performance computing, or HPC, business exceeded its Bitcoin mining revenue for the first time in the first quarter, underscoring miners’ broader push to diversify their operations.

The Block reported on May 8 that TeraWulf posted $21 million in first-quarter HPC hosting revenue.

Bitcoin mining revenue was $13 million in the same period.

Total first-quarter revenue was $34 million, little changed from $34.4 million a year earlier.

“This quarter marks the first time the HPC hosting business has made a meaningful contribution to our financial statements,” Chief Executive Officer Paul Prager said on the company’s earnings conference call.

The market is focused on miners increasing their exposure to HPC businesses as demand for artificial intelligence and data centers grows. Whether HPC profitability expands further will be a key variable.
