- Anthropic is negotiating a $45 billion computing power agreement with Nscale for a new West Virginia facility.

Anthropic is in advanced discussions to acquire roughly $45 billion in computing power from Nvidia-backed cloud infrastructure firm Nscale, according to reports. The prospective agreement centers on a second facility at Nscale‘s Monarch data center campus in West Virginia.
The new building is slated to generate 460 megawatts of computing capacity powered by Nvidia‘s next-generation Vera Rubin chips. An agreement could materialize in the coming days.
The West Virginia campus was initially slated to house infrastructure for Microsoft, which signed a preliminary letter of intent in March. However, Microsoft withdrew from the site, clearing the way for Anthropic.
Anthropic already has existing infrastructure commitments with Nscale valued at approximately $44.6 billion, according to regulatory filings. The creator of the Claude AI model has rapidly emerged as a dominant consumer of global data center capacity.
Nscale recently closed a $3.36 billion pre-IPO financing round led by Dan Loeb’s Third Point with participation from Nvidia, Apollo Global Management, Citadel, Hudson Bay Capital, and the Abu Dhabi Investment Council. The company is targeting a $30 billion valuation for its public debut.
Anthropic is also weighing its own public offering as it scales its computational infrastructure to meet surging enterprise demand. Retail sentiment on Stocktwits was ‘bullish’ with ‘high’ message volumes for Anthropic.
