Interhash has brought its first GPU-powered AI mining servers online, marking a strategic expansion of its infrastructure beyond traditional Bitcoin mining. Announced by CEO Alexander Lozben at the Bitcoin 2026 conference in Las Vegas, the pilot is not a pivot away from Bitcoin but a complementary service layer that leverages the company’s existing power, cooling, and facility assets.
Bitcoin mining and AI compute share the same physical foundation—differing only in the hardware layer (ASICs vs. GPUs) and economic logic. With nearly a decade of experience in mining infrastructure, Interhash now sees AI compute as a natural next step. “This hybrid model improves asset utilization by ensuring our infrastructure generates value across different market conditions. The flexibility to allocate capacity between mining and AI compute lets us prioritize the highest-margin workload at any given time,” Lozben stated.
The company will continue to operate traditional Bitcoin mining as its core, with AI workloads absorbing capacity when mining margins are compressed and hashrate ramping up during Bitcoin rallies. Performance metrics are already being monitored. Interhash, an international digital asset and blockchain firm, serves as the official ViaBTC mining pool representative for Europe and the CIS and operates across the Middle East, Europe, and Central Asia.
