CoinWorld News reports that the data center boom driven by AI and Bitcoin mining is being financed through high-yield bonds, with related companies issuing approximately $33 billion in long-term notes over the past year. Their borrowing rates range from 7% to 9%, significantly higher than traditional energy companies. This indicates that lenders still view the AI and Bitcoin sectors as growth-oriented credit, with higher capital costs.
