🟢 IREN is trading 7.88% up today on AI data-center transition optimism

IREN is trading 7.88% up at $47.11, driven by sector-wide optimism that bitcoin-mining facilities can transition into AI data-center infrastructure.

• The move extends IREN’s 9.86% advance on August 12, 2026, and follows Riot Platforms’ reported $9.1 billion Anthropic agreement covering 191 megawatts.
• Bitcoin is up 0.21% and Ethereum 0.41% since the last close, so cryptocurrency moves do not explain IREN’s outsized gain; broader tech strength also supports the move.
