(NASDAQ:CLSK) shares are climbing Monday as **Bitcoin** (CRYPTO: BTC) pushes to a two-month high and a wave of positive momentum sweeps through crypto-linked and AI infrastructure names alike. - CleanSpark stock is charging ahead with explosive momentum. Why is CLSK stock up today? ## Bitcoin Clears a Key Technical Level as ETF Flows Turn Positive The session’s catalyst begins with digital assets. Bitcoin has crossed back above its 200-week moving average, a threshold near $63,300 that market participants treat as the boundary between a structurally bearish and structurally bullish regime and briefly touched $65,000 during early Asian hours despite a fresh round of U.S. military strikes against Iran, according to Bloomberg. Spot Bitcoin ETFs pulled in $75.7 million in net inflows last week, building on $197.4 million the prior week and marking the first back-to-back positive weeks after eight straight weeks of withdrawals. ## A Wave of Data Center Deals is Rewarding the AI Infrastructure Trade CleanSpark is drawing an additional lift from momentum building across the group. **Strategy Inc**. (NASDAQ:MSTR) is higher after disclosing it raised $263.5 million through a common stock sale last week without purchasing or selling any Bitcoin, instead directing the proceeds toward building its dollar reserve, a shift that investors are reading as a sign of improving financial discipline. **IREN Ltd**. (NASDAQ:IREN) is also advancing after the company lifted its year-end AI Cloud annualized run-rate revenue target, reinforcing confidence that demand for AI infrastructure is holding up across the group. ## Hut 8 Expands Long‑Term AI Data Center Commitments In Texas CleanSpark is drawing an additional lift from momentum building across former Bitcoin miners that have repositioned as AI infrastructure providers. **Hut 8 Corp.** (NASDAQ:HUT) disclosed that it expanded its relationship with an existing investment-grade tenant at its Beacon Point campus in Texas, signing a second 15-year lease valued at $9.8 billion. The new commitment covers 352 megawatts of IT load and doubles the tenant’s total contracted footprint at the one-gigawatt site. Hut 8’s aggregate base-term contract value across its entire portfolio has now reached $26.6 billion, backed by 949 megawatts of contracted AI data center capacity. ## CleanSpark’s Sandersville Lease Draws Fresh Investor Attention CleanSpark itself announced last week that it struck a 20-year infrastructure lease with a high-investment-grade global technology company at its Sandersville, Georgia campus. The agreement is structured to generate roughly $6.6 billion in contracted revenue over its base term with the potential to reach $11.6 billion if both five-year renewal options are exercised. The deal also grants the tenant exclusivity across nearly 900 megawatts of additional capacity in Texas. CEO **Matt Schultz** described the transaction as a defining moment for CleanSpark, marking the company’s transition into a diversified digital infrastructure platform and validating its strategy of acquiring land and power assets ahead of demand. With Hut 8’s latest commitment confirming that appetite for power-ready data center sites remains intense at the institutional level, CleanSpark’s own agreement is drawing renewed investor interest today. ## CLSK Shares Are Trending Higher **CLSK Price Action:** CleanSpark shares were up 13.43% at $14.78 at the time of publication on Monday, according to Benzinga Pro. **Read Also: Bitmine Slows ETH Buys to 7,430 Tokens as Tom Lee Redirects $86M to Stock Buybacks: What Changed?** *Image: PJ McDonnell/Shutterstock.com* ### Related Stocks - [CLSK.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CLSK.US.md) - [GBTC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GBTC.US.md) - [HUT.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HUT.US.md) - [BITB.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BITB.US.md) - [ARKB.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ARKB.US.md) - [CLSX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CLSX.US.md) - [IBIT.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/IBIT.US.md) - [FBTC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/FBTC.US.md) - [BITO.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BITO.US.md) - [BRRR.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BRRR.US.md) - [BTCO.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BTCO.US.md) - [BTCW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BTCW.US.md) - [HODL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HODL.US.md) - [EZBC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/EZBC.US.md) - [BTCE.DE](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BTCE.DE.md) - [03008.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03008.HK.md) - [03042.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03042.HK.md) - [03430.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03430.HK.md) - [CLSZ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CLSZ.US.md) - [MSTR.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MSTR.US.md) - [IREN.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/IREN.US.md) - [CLSKW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CLSKW.US.md) - [STRF.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/STRF.US.md) - [STRC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/STRC.US.md) - [STRK.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/STRK.US.md) - [STRD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/STRD.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Crypto slump, AI boom overshadow CZ’s bullish pitch at Hong Kong’s Bitcoin Asia](https://longbridge.com/en/news/297191248.md) - [OranjeBTC completes settlement of R$ 210 million secured debenture offering](https://longbridge.com/en/news/297578767.md) - [Hut 8 Corp Stock (HUT) Moved Up by 7.04% on Aug 25: A Full Analysis](https://longbridge.com/en/news/296948971.md) - [Sixty-Six Capital borrows USDC 2 million from K33 Holding in short-term financing deal](https://longbridge.com/en/news/297045058.md) - [Bitdeer buys 200 acres near Rockdale, Texas facility for USD 100 million](https://longbridge.com/en/news/297692101.md) --- > **Disclaimer: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.**
