CoreWeave’s All-Stock Takeover Bid for Core Scientific Sparks Shareholder Skepticism—KBW Warns of Scrutiny
Cloud provider CoreWeave just lobbed a grenade into Bitcoin mining—an all-stock play for Core Scientific that’s got Wall Street analysts reaching for their pitchforks.
Why it matters: When a GPU-heavy player tries to swallow a mining giant with paper, shareholders start checking the fine print for dilution traps.
The KBW angle: Analysts flag ‘structural concerns’—because nothing says ‘confidence’ like avoiding cash in a sector where rigs depreciate faster than a trader’s patience during consolidation.
Bottom line: This isn’t your 2021 crypto M&A. With miners still licking bear market wounds, that stock-for-stock math better be bulletproof—or prepare for the ‘activist investor’ rodeo.
