A new class of AI hardware
AI compute in a miner's form factor.
Eight NVIDIA RTX 6000 Blackwell GPUs in the footprint of two ASIC miners - engineered to drop into the mining datacenters that already have the power.

Every mining farm is racing to become an AI datacenter.
AI's real bottleneck isn't chips - it's power. Energized, cheap, grid-connected power with a building around it. Bitcoin miners spent a decade building exactly that, at gigawatt scale.
Bitdeer alone runs 3+ GW of power - and is converting it to AI as fast as it can. Core Scientific, Hut 8, Hive and dozens more are doing the same.
Rebuilding a mining datacenter for AI costs a fortune.
A full AI retrofit runs $8-10M per megawatt and takes up to three years - UPS rooms, generators, precision cooling, raised floors and 19-inch racks a mining datacenter was deliberately built without.

GPUs of real compute - in weeks, not years
Only ~7% of a single miner's portfolio runs AI today - and there are dozens of operators like it.

Don't rebuild the building. Swap the box.
VA·Forge is a full 8-GPU AI server the size of two ASIC miners. Pull two miners, slide one in - same shelves, same PDUs, same airflow. A site converts in days, not years.
2× ASIC miner1× VA·ForgeSame footprint. Same power envelope. Eight NVIDIA GPUs where two hashboards used to sit.
Run AI in the datacenter you already power.
No datacenter to build
VA·Forge runs in the powered mining datacenter you already operate. No UPS rooms, no precision cooling, no re-racking.
Saved per server
At $8-10M per MW and ~5 kW per unit, that is the facility buildout a 4U server needs and VA·Forge does not.
Datacenter capex, per server
To first AI revenue
Swap a rack group in days. A purpose-built AI datacenter takes one to three years.
Redundancy
Dual power supplies, redundant fans and dual-homed networking. The resilience is in the box, not the building.
Slide a rack from mining to AI.
Same rack, same three shelves, same power envelope. Drag the slider and watch ASIC miners become VA·Forge AI servers, slot by slot.

Illustrative rack: 3 shelves × 8 slots - one AI server fills two miner slots. Figures scale linearly with size; a real site runs dozens to hundreds of racks like this.

Audit a few rack rows: circuits, PDUs, network path. No structural work.

Miners out, VA·Forge in - same slots, same power envelope, same airflow direction.

Serve AI
Run your own workloads, rent the capacity out, or both - the mining next to it keeps hashing.
Example: a 10 MW site keeps 8 MW hashing and converts 2 MW to VA·Forge first. As AI utilization holds, more megawatts follow - at the pace the site can absorb.

Same server, same price. A form factor that fits.
VA·Forge is our VA·Vanguard server in a new shell. Identical 8-GPU compute, identical price. The difference is that the 4U Vanguard needs a built-out datacenter, while VA·Forge drops straight into the mining racks you already power.
| VA·Vanguard (4U) | VA·Forge | |
|---|---|---|
| 8-GPU compute | 8× RTX 6000 Blackwell | 8× RTX 6000 Blackwell |
| Server price | €170,000 | €170,000 |
| Form factor | 4U · 19-inch datacenter rack | ASIC-miner footprint · mining racks |
| Needs a built-out datacenter | Yes - $8-10M per MW | No - drops into the mining datacenter |
| Datacenter capex, per server | ~$40,000-50,000 | ≈ $0 |
| Time to first AI revenue | Weeks-months | Days-weeks |
| Redundancy | From the building | In the machine |
At $8-10M per MW of AI datacenter and ~5 kW per server, the 4U path carries roughly $40,000-50,000 of facility buildout per unit. VA·Forge drops into a powered mining datacenter, so that capex is ≈ $0 - same server, same price, on top of the datacenter you never build. Indicative June 2026 figures, ex. VAT.
Live in a real mining datacenter.
Two VA·Forge units are already running for testing at a Bitcoin mining datacenter in Slovakia operated by Minero.sk - exactly the kind of energized site VA·Forge is built for. Founder Maroš Kancír runs it.
