There was some kind of so-called electricity auction announcement made which is claimed to encourage the AI and data center users to pick up some of the cost differential between the tech bros and everyone else on the grid. I am skeptical about this. Which would have a large effect on both the heavy utilities bear index and the cryptocurrency markets.

The jump was just prior to the announcement. Insider trading? Maybe.
