BTCCSquare news:

Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, xAI, Oracle, and OpenAI will sign the AI Data Centers Energy Pledge with the TRUMP administration, committing to self-supply power for new data centers. The move aims to alleviate pressure on public grids as AI-related electricity demand triples globally by 2026.

The initiative, branded as the Ratepayer Protection Pledge, responds to projections that U.S. data centers could consume 12% of national power by 2030. Tech firms will build or procure dedicated energy infrastructure, sidestepping traditional utility dependencies.

Cryptocurrencies like BTC, ETH, and SOL—often mined in energy-intensive operations—may face renewed scrutiny as power allocation shifts toward AI. Exchanges such as Binance and Coinbase could see volatility if industrial energy deals impact mining profitability.

President Trump framed the March 2026 signing as a safeguard for both technological growth and household utility bills. The pact underscores a looming reality: every watt diverted to AI is one withheld from other digital asset sectors.

Risk warning: Digital asset trading is an emerging industry with bright prospects, but it also comes with huge risks as it is a new market. The risk is especially high in leveraged trading since leverage magnifies profits and amplifies risks at the same time. Please make sure you have a thorough understanding of the industry, the leveraged trading models, and the rules of trading before opening a position. Additionally, we strongly recommend that you identify your risk tolerance and only accept the risks you are willing to take. All trading involves risks, so you must be cautious when entering the market.
