Nvidia plans to produce its next generation of AI chips and supercomputers completely in the US for the first time, the company said in a statement on Monday.

The move reflects the rising demand for AI-Infrastructure and a wider push to locate advanced tech making, which can also benefit crypto-mining workers that reuse their facilities for AI and High-Performance Computing (HPC).

Many of these operators already have access to the large power and cooling systems needed for data center operations, making them potential players in the growing AI economy.

Crypto mine workers who were once unambiguously focused on hashing stream are increasingly looking for ways of fit in the AI ​​and HPC supply chain. Their existing access to power-tight infrastructure and logistical experience of running industrial scale operations gives them a foothold as a demand for AI calculation increases.

However, the latest tariffs from US President Donald Trump cause anxiety among miners, as political changes are expected to raise costs on ASIC miners, electrical components, network hardware and more.

Nvidia has secured over a million square meters of space over Arizona and Texas to build and test Blackwell Chips and AI systems, Nvidia said. Production has already begun at TSMC’s plant in Phoenix.

In Texas, supercomputer factories are built with Foxconn in Houston and Wistron in Dallas, with full production expected within 12 to 15 months.

This marks a shift for Nvidia, which has previously been dependent on overseas facilities. The company will also collaborate with Amkor and Games to handle packaging and testing in Arizona.

Nvidia expects these efforts to support up to half a trillion dollars’ value of AI infrastructure in the next four years. CEO Jensen Huang called the shift “The first time the engines in the world’s AI infrastructure are built in the US.”
