What are the terms of the deal? Alphabet acted as a financial guarantor for a ten-year lease agreement between TeraWulf and Fluidstack, allocating $1,8 billion and receiving 41 million shares (8% of the capital). The company later added another $1,4 billion in support and warrants for 32,5 million shares, increasing its stake to 14%.

The deal protects Fluidstack’s commitments to expand the Lake Mariner campus in New York. A new data center is planned for construction there, which will begin operations in the second half of 2026.
