North American data center supply in primary markets has nearly doubled since 2024. Yet vacancy still fell to a record low of 1.4%. Less than 1,500 MW is available across those markets today, about six months of demand at the current pace, and 80% of what’s under construction is already preleased. (Source: CBRE, 2026) Building more is necessary. However, it won’t be fast enough on its own. Meanwhile, plenty of capacity sits in blocks of a few megawatts, or a few hundred kW. too small for one AI deployment and spread across owners, grids, and networks. We think the workload distribution the overlooked part of the AI capacity shortage, and that is what we're working towards here at LōD. More details coming soon. #AIInfrastructure #DataCenters #FlexibleCompute #Capacity

We keep hearing that AI capacity shortage is a supply problem. We think part of it is a workload distribution problem. BloombergNEF projects US data centers will need 194 GW by 2035. The most ever connected to the grid in one year is 7.1 GW, so even at that record pace there’s a 19 GW shortfall. McKinsey & Company expects inference to become more than half of all AI compute by 2030, and expects a shift toward smaller, distributed data centers to serve it. AI inference doesn’t need one giant campus. It can run across distributed sites, and that is the solution we’re working on at LōD. #DataCenter #AICapacity #DistributedCompute #ComputeFlexibility

How much does mining management software cost? It depends on who you ask (per MW, per miner, or a slice of your hashrate). We pulled 2026 public pricing and found fine print that can make a “cheap” tool expensive Getting a quote? Read the guide here: lod.io/blog/bitcoin-mining-m…

We found many Bitcoin mining platforms use identical feature names but deliver different things. "Power control" vs "demand response" and "automation" (scheduled vs real-time) are often conflated. We mapped 6 common labels across LoD, Braiins, Luxor, and Foreman. Read it all here: lod.io/blog/bitcoin-mining-m… .#BitcoinMining

Every mining vendor will say they're top-tier...few will point out their flaws. We did that for you: a side-by-side comparison of LōD, Braiins, Luxor, and Foreman. Honest strengths, weaknesses, and who each suits. It’s a long-term choice. Guide’s free; get it here 👇lod.io/lp/mining-platform-gu… #BitcoinMining #ERCOT

AI’s power problem needs more than grid expansion. Compute must become flexible. ⚡ In the latest DataCentre.ca publication, our CEO @Medi_Naseri explains LōD’s millisecond inference routing, what its Dominion Energy pilot will test, and the path to “Speed to Power.” buff.ly/LKKVUcf

What if the ERCOT strategy saving you money today stops paying off under the next rules? 4CP is being rewritten. 12CP is only one possible outcome—and the final model could change which peaks matter and what flexibility is worth. We mapped 3 possible futures:buff.ly/MLh4ZVZ #ERCOT #4CP #EnergyFlexibility

Picking a mining platform is a hard call, and everyone says they're the best. So we wrote an honest comparison of LōD, Braiins, Luxor, and Foreman.

AI compute is becoming grid-responsive. Data Center Dynamics covered LōD’s selection into the 2026 Dominion Energy Innovation Center (DEIC) Accelerate program and our upcoming pilot with Dominion Energy. We’re building toward a future where inference workloads can flex with real-time grid conditions without giving up performance or SLAs. This is what compute flexibility looks like in practice.

Medi Naseri will speak at the Energy Investors Forum (EIF) 2026. In "Flexible Compute: The Grid-Aware Operating Model for AI Infrastructure in a Power-Constrained World," he'll address power supply-demand challenges and introduce an innovative approach to flexibility.

LōD was selected for the 2026 Dominion Energy Innovation Center Accelerate program. We will pilot our AI inference flexibility solution with @DominionEnergy . Our technology allows data centers to respond to grid conditions while maintaining performance, compliance, and SLAs. With Virginia holding the world’s largest concentration of data center load and PJM facing rising electricity demand, LōD helps operators unlock capacity, cut energy costs, improve utilization, and scale workloads without stressing the grid.

AI is starting to operate energy infrastructure, not just analyze it. But even the smartest AI makes bad decisions with stale or poorly structured data. If you’re exploring AI for ERCOT, Bitcoin mining, or data centers, this is worth a read. 👉 lod.io/blog/ercot-real-time-…

Bitcoin mining margins are getting squeezed. Most operators are working hard to optimize profitability. The problem? Many are optimizing the most visible costs; not necessarily the biggest ones. If you’re chasing pennies while dollars leak elsewhere, you’re solving the wrong problem. Read more: lod.io/blog/bitcoin-mining-o… #BitcoinMining #Hashrate #HashrateOptimization
