We recently compiled a list of the Top 10 Trending AI News Updates That Investors Likely Missed. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Bitdeer Technologies Group (NASDAQ:BTDR) stands against the other AI stocks.
Just as the AI industry was catching up with the launch of the DeepSeek AI R1 model in January, sources divulged that the Hangzhou-based company is planning to release the R2 model as early as possible. The company was previously aiming to launch the R2 model in May.
DeepSeek expects the R2 model to exhibit better coding and reasoning capabilities in multiple languages. The R1 model, which was built cost-effectively using relatively less powerful GPUs, triggered a $1 trillion sell-off in US and European markets.
The speculation around the R2 model could potentially drive further volatility in America’s AI landscape as investors question the narrative that US-based AI companies require hundreds of billions of dollars to develop AI systems.
“The launch of DeepSeek’s R2 model could be a pivotal moment in the AI industry. DeepSeek’s success at creating cost-effective AI models would likely spur companies worldwide to accelerate their own efforts … breaking the stranglehold of the few dominant players in the field.”
-said Vijayasimha Alilughatta, COO Zensar.

On February 25th, Bitdeer Technologies Group (NASDAQ:BTDR) posted a drop in year-over-year (YoY) revenue for Q4 to $69 million from $114.8 million. The company’s loss per share in Q4 also increased YoY to $3.22 per share from $0.05. Bitdeer’s chief business officer, Matt Kong, attributed the results to limited hashrate growth as the company focused more on the development of proprietary ASIC technology.
“In terms of our energy assets, our global power capacity now exceeds 2.6 GWs, following the Foxcreek, Alberta acquisition, and over 1 GW is scheduled to be energized over the course of 2025. This puts us in an advantageous position to deploy our SEALMINER machines for self-mining and also capitalize on the significant demand for HPC and AI datacenters. We are actively working with top datacenter developers and advisors to establish long-term partnerships, which will position Bitdeer to play a significant role in addressing the shortage of reliable power for AI datacenters.”
