CleanSpark ($CLSK) CEO Matt Schultz on Building a “Token Factory” with Energy, Bitcoin Mining, & AI

Matt Schultz, CEO & Chairman of CleanSpark ($CLSK), sits down to trace his journey building CleanSpark into a leading U.S. Bitcoin mining company, and now an energy platform expanding into AI/HPC data centers. Schultz shares the story of going public via reverse merger, explains CleanSpark’s “monetize megawatts” strategy across Bitcoin and AI compute, and addresses common retail misconceptions around long-term execution and shareholder alignment. Highlights Include: • From gasifier to Bitcoin to AI: CleanSpark’s evolution has always been rooted in monetizing energy infrastructure • 2022 Bitcoin sale: Reinvesting at the peak into infrastructure while peers levered up created long-term advantage • Bitcoin + AI: A complementary model balancing grid flexibility with durable, long-term compute contracts • Long-term execution: Scalable data center strategy and disciplined contracts drive sustainable growth 🔗 Follow Marketopolis Main Site - https://www.marketopolis.com/ LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/marketopolis/ Twitter/X – https://x.com/marketopolis_ 🎧 Marketopolis ◼️ Listen on Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/2zg0uDhKwzX3Eznw0wkbpT ◼️ Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/marketopolis-from-benzinga-stakeholder-labs/id1844863398 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 💡 Sponsors / Partners Presented by SurfAir Visit https://surfair.com/marketopolis ⚠️SurfAir 17b: https://www.benzinga.com/partner-disclosure/surf-air-mobility-inc-partner-disclosure #Benzinga #Marketopolis #MattSchultz #cleanspark $CLSK
