The former mining heavyweight offloaded 96% of its Bitcoin stack to fund its shift toward AI and high-performance computing data centers Core Scientific sold 816 BTC during the third quarter of 2026. That left the company with 32 BTC on its balance sheet as of September 30. The sale, disclosed in its Q3 2026 earnings report, represented 96% of the Bitcoin Core Scientific held. Management also confirmed on the earnings call that it plans to stop mining Bitcoin entirely by December 31, 2026. The trajectory of Core Scientific’s (NASDAQ: CORZ) treasury tells the story better than any press release.
