AI increased revenues

The company currently holds $400 million in cash and cash equivalent assets.

The number of Bitcoin issued also increased

The number of Bitcoins mined by the company has also increased significantly. Despite the increasing difficulty of mining, the number of BTC obtained by IREN has increased from 3259 to 4191 in the last 1 year.

Bernstein had taken it to the watch list

The company, formerly known as Iris Energy, came back from the brink of bankruptcy in the crypto crisis in 2022.

Finally, Bernstein analysts stated that they closely follow the developments in IREN and Core Scientific companies and expect a good performance from both companies in the coming period. Bernstein analysts stated that they expect serious rises in the shares of the two Bitcoin miner companies.
