Connected with the CEO of one of the leading AI data center companies and he said he finds this price action "comical" as literally nothing has changed in the business from a fundamental standpoint. We've gone through this many times over the last 3.5 years and always recovered.
I believe the reason $IREN has been aggressively adding GWs of power across the globe is for this very reason. $NVDA wants to build their own cloud and they want to do it fast. $IREN are experts at building datacenters and securing power. This is the right partnership.
I did what I said I would, aggressively sold some positions and added to $IREN below $40. Down to 2 larger positions ( $SOFI & $IREN - multi-year hold, may trim if i see valuations get truly stretched), Small bets on $ASST, $ZETA, $ONDS, $LAES 🤷♂️. Now its time to let it ride
I was thinking very deeply today. I believe the timing of this pay package is very particular. We have had a string of large announcements lately. Why all in a stretch of 1-2 weeks? Why did the board move fast to lock in the CEOs for the next 6 years. Is there another huge announcement incoming that justifies all of this? $IREN
The era of Ethereum starts now.
You will forced to buy ETH.
You will be forced to accept the flipenning.
You will be forced to respect the new king.
The opportunity cost is too large and it will be impossible for the world to ignore.
$IREN Bulls need to recover the 50 WMA here..
We are in the smart money buy zone, a recovery of the 50 WMA could be the trigger that sends this stock to +$100 prices 📈
Stock set up is looking very good here 🎯
Higher, faster, accelerate it, liquidate them all, take no fucking prisoners, no mercy, up only to infinity.
ETH is going to $5,000 in the next 22 days and there is nobody that can stop it now.
$IREN co-founders just got approved for a $1.14 billion pay package.
It lands a week after a $50 million a year Warriors jersey patch deal, and four months after a $6 billion ATM that replaced the $1 billion they’d already fully tapped.
The optics look like a management team spending someone else’s money. The mechanics say something different.
Here’s what the package actually is:
Nine million shares each, vesting in tranches through 2030. They have to hold every tranche two years before they can sell a single share. The board locked out any new grants until FY2031.
Now the number that matters. Each brother owns about 3.9% of IREN today, 14 million shares. Add the new grant and they’re each sitting on roughly 23 million shares once fully vested. Combined founder ownership pushes toward 12%.
That’s the same range Arkady Volozh holds at $NBIS, arguably the most founder-aligned name in this entire AI infrastructure trade. The Roberts brothers just bought themselves into that same tier.
Here’s the part I’m not waving away. This grant is the third major capital and spending decision from this board in four months, after the $6 billion ATM and the Warriors deal. Stack a nine-figure equity package on aggressive share issuance and a Bay Area sponsorship splash, and you get a leadership team spending like the AI Cloud ramp is already proven, when bitcoin mining still made up the majority of last quarter’s revenue.
A $1.14 billion pay packet reads like excess until you notice it’s the same bet Volozh made on Nebius: get paid in shares, get locked in for years, let the buildout do the talking.
The Roberts brothers just wagered four years of their own net worth on hitting numbers they haven’t hit yet.
I’m still long. But I also want the next earning to show results for the path forward. And based on recent activities and lack of PR I think @danroberts0101 owes retail some clarity.
