IREN is trading at $49.20 (+10.12%) after its 2GW Sweetwater Hub was conditionally included as a Base Load resource in ERCOT’s Batch Zero process.

  • The designation advances IREN’s Texas data-center expansion and helps clear a major grid-interconnection hurdle.
  • Further approvals remain necessary.
  • Bitcoin is down 0.95% since the last close, so crypto weakness does not explain IREN’s sharp gain.
