Company snapshot — Cipher Mining Inc

CIFR in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelook stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Cipher Digital, previously Cipher Mining, builds and runs large data centres in the United States, some for bitcoin mining and others fitted out for high-performance computing that it hosts on behalf of hyperscale tenants. It runs power at one bitcoin mining site and holds a pipeline of further locations it can develop. The company was founded in 2021 and is based in New York.
Where it sits in the stack
Cipher Digital carries no Closelook index seat. Within the diary's universe it sits in the sleeve the peer group calls neoclouds and former miners, businesses that began as bitcoin miners and are converting power and sites toward compute hosting for outside customers.
Who it is priced against
Closelook's peer group places it with IREN, CoreWeave, Nebius and Applied Digital, grouped as neoclouds and former miners because the market prices them on the same pivot from mining to hosted compute; Marathon Digital is the other name traders often set alongside it.
Why Closelook tracks it
It holds no index seat and carries no Closelook score yet, and the diary has not logged a quote or mention for it so far.
What the diary watches
Whether the sites now pitched to hyperscaler tenants for HPC hosting move from pipeline to signed capacity, and whether bitcoin mining stays the larger share of operations in the meantime.
