Bitcoin Miner Core Scientific Should Weather Crypto Storm, Analyst Says
Compass Point gave Core a buy rating and $4 price target.Read MoreCoinDesk
Crypto hosting and mining company Core Scientific (CORZ) has the scale and experience to make it through the bitcoin (BTC) market downturn, Compass Point analyst Chase White told clients in a note Tuesday.
White also wrote that Core has sufficient access to capital with its monthly production of bitcoin and its equity line of credit to fund its operations and debt through the end of next year.

Compass Point initiated research coverage on Core with a buy recommendation and $4 price target. The shares were trading at about $1.42, up 3 cents, on Tuesday morning.
