Riot Platforms, Inc.

Riot Platforms, Inc. is a publicly traded digital infrastructure company headquartered in Castle Rock, Colorado, United States, incorporated in 1998. The company develops and operates large-scale power-intensive infrastructure for Bitcoin mining and emerging high-density compute applications, with major operating campuses in Texas and Kentucky. Riot describes itself as a leader in the development of large-scale data centers and bitcoin mining applications, with a vertically integrated model spanning mining, engineering, and data center development.

Known for its large approved power portfolio, vertically integrated engineering capabilities, and growing focus on high-density digital infrastructure, Riot serves hyperscale, AI/HPC, and power-intensive compute use cases in addition to its core Bitcoin mining operations. A notable recent milestone was the company’s first data center lease with AMD at its Rockdale site, alongside the continued buildout of its Corsicana campus and broader repositioning toward large-scale data center development.

⚙️ Facility Highlights

Data Center Footprint:

1. Major operating campuses in Rockdale, Texas; Corsicana, Texas; and Kentucky
2. Rockdale represents 700 MW of developed capacity
3. Corsicana is being developed as a 1 GW campus, with an initial 400 MW phase already energized and operating
4. Kentucky includes 60 MW operational capacity, 110 MW contracted capacity, and a pipeline to over 300 MW

Facility Design & Infrastructure:

1. Large-scale digital infrastructure designed for high-density, power-intensive workloads
2. Rockdale uses a mix of immersion-cooled and air-cooled buildings
3. Corsicana is designed around immersion-cooling and large-scale campus development on a site that began at 265 acres and later expanded through additional land acquisition
4. Riot’s portfolio is increasingly positioned for AI/HPC and hyperscale data center development in addition to mining operations

Service Portfolio Overview:

1. Large-scale data center development
2. Bitcoin mining infrastructure and hosting capacity
3. Engineering and fabrication capabilities supporting infrastructure deployment
4. Emerging support for AI/HPC deployments through leased and planned high-density capacity

🔐 Security & Compliance

Infrastructure Resilience:

1. Campus-scale infrastructure designed for continuous, power-intensive operations
2. Facilities built around large approved power capacity and phased development for long-term expansion
3. Riot’s strategy emphasizes rapid deployment of infrastructure capable of supporting high-density compute loads

Physical & Logical Security:

1. Controlled industrial operating environments are implied by Riot’s owned and operated campuses, though detailed physical security specifications are not broadly published on the public site.
2. Customer-specific security, segregation, and service controls may vary by deployment model and agreement.

Compliance & Standards:

1. Riot is a U.S. public company reporting through the SEC and operating under applicable corporate governance and regulatory disclosure requirements.
2. Detailed facility certifications are not prominently disclosed in the public materials reviewed.

🌐 Connectivity & Carrier Access

Carrier Neutrality:

1. Riot publicly emphasizes power availability and large-scale infrastructure development more than traditional retail carrier-neutral colocation positioning.
2. Its campuses are being developed for hyperscale and high-density compute use cases, including leased capacity arrangements.

Network Capabilities:

1. Infrastructure positioned to support large-scale digital infrastructure and high-density computing
2. Campuses in major Texas markets are being advanced for data center leasing and AI/HPC development

Connectivity Use Cases:

1. Hyperscale and AI/HPC infrastructure deployments
2. Bitcoin mining and other power-intensive digital workloads
3. Enterprise or strategic counterparties requiring large blocks of power-backed capacity

💼 Who It Serves
