(NASDAQ: RIOT) is a vertically integrated Bitcoin mining company that designs, builds and operates specialized data centers for large-scale cryptocurrency mining. The company’s core business revolves around deploying proprietary mining hardware and infrastructure to secure the Bitcoin network while optimizing for energy efficiency. Riot Platforms focuses on both asset development and hosting services through its wholly owned subsidiaries, enabling it to expand capacity and leverage economies of scale in its mining operations. Originally founded in 2000 as BiOptix, a medical imaging equipment company, the organization pivoted to blockchain technology in 2017 and adopted the name Riot Blockchain. In 2022, it rebranded to Riot Platforms to better reflect its emphasis on scalable infrastructure solutions. Today, the company’s operations are concentrated in the United States, with data centers located in Texas, Oklahoma and other strategic regions that offer competitive electricity rates and access to reliable power grids. These facilities are designed to support high-density server configurations and incorporate advanced cooling techniques to maintain optimal performance. Under the leadership of CEO Jason Les, Riot Platforms aims to expand its hash rate capacity by acquiring additional mining rigs, securing land for new facilities and forging partnerships with energy providers. The company places particular emphasis on sustainable power sourcing and grid resiliency, seeking to reduce its carbon footprint through the use of low-cost renewable and flared natural gas energy. By integrating mining operations with infrastructure development, Riot Platforms targets long-term value creation for shareholders while contributing to the decentralization and security of the Bitcoin ecosystem.AI Generated.
