Coinbase Extends $100M Bitcoin Credit Line as Cleanspark Targets HPC Expansion

The Las Vegas-based miner, Cleanspark (Nasdaq: CLSK), said the non-dilutive financing will be deployed across strategic capital expenditures, including enlarging its energy portfolio, scaling bitcoin mining operations, and investing in high-performance computing (HPC) capabilities.

The company framed the move as part of a push to optimize assets while preparing data centers for alternative compute use cases near major metropolitan areas. Chief Executive Officer and Chairman Matt Schultz said the expanded relationship with Coinbase Prime supports adding megawatts to Cleanspark’s portfolio while advancing potential development of HPC campuses.

Schultz said the initiative aims to accelerate mining growth and improve asset efficiency as sites are adapted for diversified compute demand. Coinbase Institutional head Brett Tejpaul said Coinbase Prime’s custody and trading infrastructure is designed to provide secure support for institutions scaling digital-asset strategies.

Tejpaul called Cleanspark’s capital approach a step toward growing the crypto ecosystem through focused deployment. Cleanspark Chief Financial Officer and President Gary A. Vecchiarelli said delivering accretive growth with non-dilutive financing remains central to the company’s plan.

He said Cleanspark’s “Infrastructure First” strategy has been validated historically and is intended to enhance shareholder value as the firm expands into more diversified compute opportunities. The company, which describes itself as “America’s Bitcoin Miner,” operates data centers across the United States and says it benefits from competitive energy pricing.

It insists on operational discipline and capital stewardship as core to optimizing returns. The news comes as several public mining firms have gravitated toward providing both bitcoin mining facilities and HPC campuses. The need for HPC has grown in lockstep with the growth of artificial intelligence (AI) workloads over the last few years.

The capacity increase builds on prior financing between the companies and reflects access to collateralized credit markets using bitcoin holdings. Neither party disclosed drawdown details beyond intended uses, and terms beyond capacity were not specified in the announcement.
