forklog.media When intelligence isn’t enough

The artificial-intelligence industry has hit a barrier that money or new generations of chips cannot clear. A global grid crunch, component shortages and community resistance have turned the construction of data centres into one of tech’s hardest logistical and political problems. How AI data centres differ from classical facilities, why the industry has grown more dependent on China, and how residents are voting out local officials to shield themselves from noise and environmental risks — all in ForkLog’s new report. An architectural shift Traditional data centres that powered the internet economy over the past two decades are fundamentally different from the architecture required for large language models. The classic data centre is built around the CPU and draws on average 5–10 kW per rack, whereas GPU-first AI racks consume roughly ten times more. Machine-learning racks with accelerators such as Nvidia’s H100 or B200 require 40–120 kW each. The power-density gap changes the underlying physics of these sites. A cluster of tens of thousands of GPUs under peak load consumes as much electricity as a small industrial city. The snag is that distribution networks and substations are rarely designed for such abrupt, localised surges in demand. The appetites of AI’s leaders have drained stocks of critical power-delivery gear: high‑voltage transformers, generators and batteries for uninterruptible power supplies. Manufacturing capacity in the US and Europe cannot keep up. As a result, lead times for industrial transformers, mostly sourced from China, have stretched from one–two years to three–five. America’s growing reliance on Chinese components runs counter to its political rhetoric. Source: Bloomberg. Another challenge is heat rejection. Air cooling cannot cope with AI-server density. The industry is being pushed toward liquid systems such as Direct-to-Chip and immersion baths. They require millions of litres of treated water and threaten regions, especially in arid climates. According to data cited by Dutch researcher Alex de Vries-Gao, AI systems worldwide used about 765bn litres of water in 2025. To conserve resources, developers are refining designs. Instead of traditional cooling towers, where water evaporates into the atmosphere, new data centres are increasingly equipped with closed‑loop systems. In them, water circulates through pipes, absorbs heat, is cooled in radiators and returns to servers with virtually no loss in volume. Adoption, however, is lagging far behind the pace of new builds. Almost at the Stargate An unprecedented budget, top-level political backing and the mantle of the decade’s defining AI alliance. At launch, Stargate seemed to have it all — at least on paper. Stargate is a $500bn initiative that US president Donald Trump announced in January 2025 as part of a national push to retain technological dominance. The OpenAI–SoftBank–Oracle joint venture was meant to drive a rapid build‑out of AI data‑centre infrastructure. A year on from the White House fanfare, the JV still lacked a full team and had not signed a single major construction deal in its own name. Markets turned skittish, too. JPMorgan Chase, slated to arrange $38bn of Stargate debt, ran into investor doubts about the project’s returns. OpenAI’s Sam Altman and SoftBank founder Masayoshi Son disagreed on fundamentals: where to build and who would be in control. From September to October 2025, Stargate’s top brass shuttled to Tokyo for tough talks with Son but failed to settle who would own the platform for the flagship campus in Abilene, Texas. A flagship site in Abilene spanning eight pads with a planned capacity of 2.1 GW. Source: Bloomberg. OpenAI weighed going it alone, but lenders refused to provide funds without a clear path to profitability. Stargate scaled back its aims and vacated a 900‑MW pad, keeping core Texas capacity with an eye to 1.2 GW later on. Partners shifted focus: in April 2026, developer Related Digital and Oracle raised $16bn in debt and equity to build a new mega‑data‑centre in Michigan for OpenAI’s needs. Rivals seized the opening. In late March 2026 Microsoft snapped up the vacant 900 MW, becoming Crusoe Energy’s new partner to expand the Abilene campus. The upgrade should lift the site’s total capacity to 2.1 GW by mid‑2027, using Nvidia GPUs. People push back Data centres are no longer viewed as unambiguous economic engines — they create few jobs once built, yet strain grids, consume water and generate constant noise. In April 2026 residents of Festus, Missouri, protested a $6bn data‑centre proposal. Locals secured the removal of four of eight city‑council members and launched a petition to oust the rest, including the mayor. On April 9 residents sued the city, alleging it failed to give the public enough time to review the proposal before voting and made illegal zoning changes for the project. The suit also claims the city held private meetings about the plan instead of public ones. The approved scheme for an unnamed developer would cover 360 acres. Similar episodes have unfolded across America in recent months: in February 2026 the New Brunswick (New Jersey) city council, under public pressure, rejected a data‑centre deal and opted instead to use 27,000 square feet for a public park; that same month, a proposal to annex land into Foristell (Missouri) met resistance over fears it would host a data centre. The decision was revised and the area kept its agricultural zoning; in September 2025 Prince George’s County (Maryland) paused data‑centre projects after local protests and set up a task force to study risks; in St. Charles (Missouri), less than an hour from Festus, officials are moving to ban data centres permanently after imposing a moratorium in August 2025. A data center in New Brunswick was canceled tonight when hundreds of residents showed up. When fight big tech and private equity we win. pic.twitter.com/doZ63Pdwue— Ben Dziobek (@BenDziobek) February 19, 2026 The growing backlash has increased demand for transparency and real‑time data. The team behind the “US Data‑Center Moratorium Tracker” is trying to unmask companies behind unnamed deal participants and is mapping all jurisdictions that have formally imposed temporary bans on new builds. According to the dashboard, as of April 14, 2026, there are 58 moratoria in force in the US. Source: “US Data‑Center Moratorium Tracker”. Fine, then: to space Energy shortages, delayed components and public protests have stalled the sector. Per Bloomberg, construction of about half of all planned US data centres has been postponed indefinitely or scrapped. Less than a third of projected capacity is actively being built. Expected delivery timelines for data centres as of March 9, 2026. Source: Bloomberg. Tech giants and independents are searching for alternatives — from the seabed to orbit. Between 2014 and 2024 Microsoft explored submerging sealed server capsules. The last large test of Project Natick took place off Scotland’s Orkney Islands from 2018 to 2020. A capsule housing two racks with 864 servers was lowered to about 35 metres. Only six compute units failed over two years underwater. By contrast, the on‑land control group saw eight times more failures. Researchers attributed this to inert nitrogen inside the capsule, the lack of temperature swings and the absence of the human factor — a frequent cause of breakdowns. A server capsule off the Orkney Islands, Scotland. Source: Microsoft. The ocean provided a free, effectively limitless heat sink and, contrary to fears, the data centre “did not harm the ecosystem”. An artificial reef even formed around the capsule, attracting fish. Despite the success, the project was shelved as ill‑suited to AI and hampered by logistics. Any physical intervention required ships, lifting the multi‑tonne capsule from the seabed and then resealing it. How might space fare? In late 2025, researchers at the 33FG group estimated that by 2030 AI compute in orbit would be cheaper than on Earth. In February SpaceX filed a request with America’s Federal Communications Commission to launch a constellation of 1m satellites for data centres — a network of orbital facilities linked by laser backhaul. The logic of space data centres rests on two factors: access to round‑the‑clock solar power and low temperatures for near‑ideal passive cooling. But the concept faces tough commercial and physical constraints. SpaceX’s leadership has warned of the risk that such projects are not viable at this stage. Main hurdles: launch costs. Even as the price per kilogram falls, sending heavy racks with tungsten radiation shielding remains extremely expensive; latency. Real‑time inference needs milliseconds. Shipping massive datasets to and from orbit adds delays that make the setup unsuitable for many tasks. Such facilities may fit only asynchronous model training; servicing. You cannot swap a failed GPU in space. Equipment lifetimes are strictly bounded by radiation tolerance. Others are joining the orbital push: Google said it aims to build a low‑Earth‑orbit satellite system to harvest solar power for data centres, while Nvidia has announced a compute platform for space‑based facilities. In 2026 California startup Aetherflux plans to launch orbital solar mini‑farms in satellite form to beam energy down to Earth with lasers. On April 27, 2026, Meta agreed to procure 1 GW of space‑derived power for its data centres from another startup. According to orbital power‑station developer Overview Energy, the first in‑orbit demo is due in 2028, with commercial deliveries in 2030. The build‑out of AI infrastructure has run into physical and administrative limits. The voracious power draw of new GPU clusters, their need for cooling water and the strain on local grids have changed how residents and municipalities view data centres. Scaling terrestrial compute has become not a matter of capital alone but a knotty logistical and social challenge. Orbital data‑centre ventures, despite today’s high costs and maintenance barriers, are emerging as a pragmatic response to the ground‑level crunch. In the coming years, firms’ ability to solve the placement problem will determine the pace of progress in computing.

forklog.media MARA to Invest $1.5 Billion in Energy Company Transformation

Bitcoin miner MARA Holdings has entered into an agreement to purchase the Long Ridge Energy & Power gas power plant from FTAI Infrastructure for $1.5 billion. MARA expands its AI infrastructure pipeline by entering into an agreement to acquire Long Ridge Energy & Power, which owns, among other assets, a highly efficient 505 MW nameplate CCGT power plant and over 1,600 contiguous acres in one of the world’s largest AI and data center… pic.twitter.com/YUF9WlfQzP— MARA (@MARA) April 30, 2026 The deal includes Long Ridge's debt of $785 million. The remainder will be covered by cash and a loan from Barclays Bank. According to MARA, the asset is expected to generate approximately $144 million in annual adjusted EBITDA based on the second half of 2025 figures. The company plans to build an integrated digital infrastructure campus with a capacity of over 1 GW on the site. MARA's CEO Fred Thiel described Long Ridge as a "highly efficient contracted energy platform" that combines generation, fuel supply, grid connection, land, water, and fiber optics in one location. He believes the site will become a flagship campus for AI, with the company already receiving inquiries from potential tenants in the artificial intelligence and IT sectors. In February, MARA announced its shift towards data centers, reporting a $1.7 billion loss for the fourth quarter of 2025. MARA aims to transform from a pure bitcoin miner into an energy and digital infrastructure entity. In late March, the firm sold 15,133 BTC for $1.1 billion to repurchase its own bonds. On April 30, MARA's shares closed up nearly 12% at around $12. Over the past six months, the company's stock has risen by 54%. Source: Yahoo Finance. MARA is the second-largest public miner by operational hash rate (61.7 EH/s), trailing only Bitdeer (69.5 EH/s). According to BitcoinMiningStock, the rate increased by 5.83% over the month. In terms of bitcoin production, the company remains the industry leader. In April, the firm mined 736 BTC, a 4.39% increase for the month. Riot's First AI Revenue Riot Platforms has for the first time separated its data centers into a distinct business segment. By the end of the first quarter, the division generated $33.2 million for the company. Source: Riot. The firm's total profit for the reporting period was $167.2 million, with bitcoin mining contributing $111.9 million. The shift to AI accounted for about 20% of Riot's quarterly revenues. A key factor was a long-term agreement with AMD: the chip manufacturer exercised an option to expand and doubled its contracted capacity from 25 MW to 50 MW, with the potential to increase it to 200 MW. Riot continues to expand its site in Rockdale, Texas, where AMD's infrastructure is deployed. The firm is also constructing a campus in Corsicana. According to management, it will be able to accommodate either a single large tenant or multiple clients in AI, data centers, and hyperscaling. In the first quarter, Riot sold 3,778 BTC but retained 15,679 BTC on its balance sheet, valued at approximately $1.2 billion. This makes the company the seventh-largest public holder of bitcoin. Source: BitcoinTreasuries. The company's shares traded at $17.2 at the end of the latest trading session, gaining 7.8% for the day, according to Yahoo Finance. In the first quarter, public miners sold a record 32,000 BTC—more than in all of 2025.

forklog.media AI Bot Based on Claude Outperforms S&P 500 by Mimicking Creator’s Style

Software engineer Jake Nesler developed a trading AI agent using Claude from Anthropic. The bot mimics the creator's trading style, analyzes risks, and independently determines position sizes, according to Bloomberg. During a month of testing, the agent achieved a 7% return, compared to 4.5% for the S&P; 500 over the same period. In the first week, the algorithm avoided buying Nvidia shares at their peak, saving the owner from a $10,000 loss. However, the strategy's volatility was high, with drawdowns reaching 22%. Nesler trained the model for two weeks using the Alpaca platform. Initially, Claude was overly conservative, selecting only blue-chip stocks. The developer had to manually adjust settings to encourage the AI to make riskier trades. The popularity of AI agents among retail traders continues to grow. Tools like OpenClaw allow users to manage bots via Telegram or WhatsApp. Major platforms such as OKX, Bybit, and Kraken have already implemented interfaces to simplify working with automated systems. Not So Straightforward Experts warn of the risks. According to Jay Malavia, co-founder of the Kairos terminal, profitable algorithms rarely become publicly available, and fake performance screenshots are often circulated on social media, typically to promote malicious software. Nesler himself is not yet ready to entrust the bot with real assets. In prediction market experiments, his agent quickly lost the entire deposit. He compared the state of AI trading to slot machines, where outcomes are largely determined by luck. In April, Anthropic introduced an experimental product, Claude Design, an AI-based design generation tool.

forklog.media CryptoQuant Labels April Bitcoin Surge as Speculative

According to CryptoQuant analysts, April's rally of the leading cryptocurrency from $66,000 to $79,000 was driven by perpetual futures, while spot demand remained negative. Perp demand is rising. Spot demand is still contracting.That exact setup appeared in 2022 and preceded the next leg down.It doesn’t guarantee the same outcome, but structurally, this is a bearish demand signal. pic.twitter.com/jE1Ld6koaZ— CryptoQuant.com (@cryptoquant_com) April 30, 2026 They noted that the divergence between price growth and declining spot interest indicates a speculative nature of the movement. The Apparent Demand metric remained below zero throughout the month, indicating a lack of organic buyer support. Experts compared the current demand structure to the beginning of the 2022 bear phase: back then, growth in derivatives volumes was also accompanied by a contraction in spot activity, after which Bitcoin entered a multi-month correction. The digital gold's price has already retreated from a local high of around $79,000 to approximately $77,000. By the end of April, the asset had risen nearly 12%—the best performance since the start of the year, according to CoinGlass. Hourly chart of BTC/USDT on Binance. Source: TradingView.  Specialists called this a predictable outcome of a rally primarily based on futures. An additional signal was CryptoQuant's Bull Score, which dropped from 50 to 40, falling back below the neutral mark into the "bearish zone." Key Level for Short-Term Holders CryptoQuant analyst Ignacio Moreno de Vicente specifically pointed to the STH MVRV indicator, which reflects the position of short-term Bitcoin holders. Bitcoin Is Close to Flipping the Market Structure“A sustained reclaim of the Realized Price, paired with the MVRV stabilizing and trending above 1.0, would signal a structural regime change.” – By @MorenoDV_ pic.twitter.com/AsxsyFEyzi— CryptoQuant.com (@cryptoquant_com) May 1, 2026 According to him, in the current cycle, the indicator forms a descending resistance line connecting three peaks: March 2024 — Bitcoin reached $72,000; November 2024 — price rose to $106,000; July 2025 — the asset hit a new high of around $120,000. In all these cases, the price reached historical highs, but STH MVRV showed lower peaks. This is a sign of weakening momentum among short-term holders, despite rising prices. The market is now approaching a crucial test of this structure, the expert noted. If Bitcoin consolidates above the realized price of short-term holders, this group will move from loss to profit. According to Moreno de Vicente, a sustained recovery along with STH MVRV stabilizing above 1.0 could signal a market regime change—recent buyers would then stop pressuring the price at every rebound. Ethereum and the Risk of a Short Squeeze Similar tension in the derivatives market is observed with Ethereum, but the structure looks different. The altcoin's price has dropped 65% from its local peak. The TOTAL2 indicator has fallen by more than 51%, noted analyst Darkfost. 🗞️ Short Squeeze builds on Ethereum as Funding mirrors FTX-Era ExtremesThe altcoin market was hit hard during this downturn, with Ethereum at the forefront. ETH recorded a correction of around 65% from its last peak. TOTAL2, which represents the total market cap of altcoins… pic.twitter.com/7NkZo5XkNf— Darkfost (@Darkfost_Coc) May 1, 2026 From the February low, the asset has recovered more than 30%. However, many participants still do not believe in the recovery and continue to open short positions, the specialist emphasized. According to him, funding rates for Ethereum on Binance have remained negative for a long time. This was only observed during the FTX collapse and the bottom of the last bear market in November 2022. The average monthly funding is currently -0.0018. Darkfost believes this reflects a persistent consensus among traders betting on further decline. “This is a risky bet, and some are already paying the price—as indicated by the growing volume of short position liquidations. As ETH's upward momentum strengthens, shorts are increasingly squeezed out. This dynamic could fuel Ethereum's recovery: cascading liquidations are mounting. Markets rarely reward such unanimous opinion,” he concluded. At the time of writing, the leading altcoin is trading around $2280. Over the past day, its price has risen by 0.8%, according to CoinGecko. On April 30, Glassnode experts noted a weakening of selling pressure from Bitcoin sellers.
