HOW SCRAPPY CRYPTOMINER COREWEAVE TRANSFORMED INTO THE MULTIBILLION

by Umea University

Brian Venturo and a couple of fellow hedge fund buddies bought their first GPUs
as part of an elaborate joke. It was late 2016, and for the fun of playing with
something volatile that could be either trash or treasure, they had been staking
their pool and fantasy football games with bitcoin instead of cash. When bitcoin
prices surged, Venturo says, the group realized, “Maybe we should take this
seriously.”

The friends rush-ordered GPUs, also known as graphics chips, for same-day
delivery from Amazon to start mining bitcoin while their enthusiasm ran hot. The
powerful processors are prized for their ability to crunch the math of
crypto-mining at high speeds. Over time, the hobby turned into a business called
Atlantic Crypto, which filled a garage and later warehouses with GPUs. Some of
the beefy chips were rented out via the cloud to armchair cryptocurrency miners.
As coin prices climbed, time was money, so the company’s technicians grew
skilled at speedily installing GPUs and pushing their performance to the brink.



When crypto prices cratered heading into 2019, Venturo and team pivoted. They
raised money to buy cut-price GPUs from struggling crypto miners, rebranded as
CoreWeave, and offered up their tens of thousands GPUs as a specialist cloud
service for companies in need of the powerful chips, like visual effects studios
and AI startups. GPUs are essential to machine learning projects like training
algorithms to process images or text. CoreWeave was unknown in those spheres,
but won over clients by dropping everything to address support queries. “We
would resolve things in 15 minutes,” a manager from that era says. “The
dedication to customers was phenomenal.”



Everything changed after OpenAI debuted ChatGPT late in 2022. A rush of interest
and investment in all things generative AI caused a GPU shortage—especially of
Nvidia’s prized chips. With its couple of data centers packed with GPUs and a
long-standing relationship with Nvidia, CoreWeave quickly became vital to the
accelerating AI hype train. The company picked up clients including Microsoft,
OpenAI’s crucial sponsor, and image-generation startup Stability AI, according
to former CoreWeave employees. Venturo’s biggest regret is not ordering more
Nvidia chips back when he could. “If I had unlimited amounts, I could have it
all sold in two weeks,” he says.



Things still worked out. As demand for CoreWeave’s GPUs surged through 2023, the
company piled its new revenue into buying more of the chips and building out new
data centers. A company that began as a beer-money side project now doesn’t
touch crypto, and is all in on cloud computing. Over the past year the startup
has picked up a $2.3 billion loan—using GPUs as collateral—and nearly $2.2
billion in investment funding, including $1.1 billion announced this week, from
investors including Nvidia. With its latest infusion of cash, the startup’s
valuation jumped to $19 billion.

By the end of this year, CoreWeave expects to have 28 data center campuses
spread across a dozen or more US states, Europe, and potentially Asia—overall
more than nine times its footprint at the beginning of 2023. Venturo, who is now
CoreWeave’s chief strategy officer, says long-term contracts to supply AI giants
justify the buildout. “It’s transformed this small cloud startup into one of the
biggest juggernauts,” he says. “We’re lucky enough to be in this position
because of this crazy origin story where we had so much expertise building at
this rapid, frenetic pace.”
