Core Scientific Inc (NASDAQ:CORZ) shares are seeing increased attention in early trading. The company on Monday announced a production and operations update for September.

What Happened: Core Scientific said it mined 345 Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) in September, bringing its total Bitcoin mined year-to-date up to 5,621. The company also noted that clients mined an estimated 66 Bitcoin in its data centers last month.

"In September, we completed the migration of all ASIC miners from two of our bitcoin mining data centers designated for HPC conversion. Our team is now diligently removing the associated cabling, power distribution units, racks and other mining infrastructure to facilitate this transformation," said Adam Sullivan, CEO of Core Scientific.

"We remain committed to delivering powered infrastructure equipped with advanced liquid cooling systems, specifically optimized for AI GPU cloud workloads, for our HPC customer beginning in the first half of 2025."

Core Scientific noted that it reduced the consumption of power at its data centers on multiple occasions during the month, delivering 45,262 megawatt hours to local electrical grids. The company said it resumed work in Muskogee, Oklahoma in September to support a 100MW data center planned for construction on the site.
