ChainThink report, August 4: According to Yonhap News Agency, Google has joined forces with Broadcom, Apollo, Blackstone, and other institutions to establish an AI chip infrastructure financial network with a total scale of approximately $200 billion (around KRW 286 trillion), aimed at expanding the market penetration of its proprietary AI chip, the TPU.

It is reported that Google has signed a TPU supply agreement with Anthropic and is funding the construction of data centers leased for Anthropic’s use. To mitigate direct ownership risks, all parties jointly established a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) named "Compute."

The SPV completed its first acquisition of 1 million TPU hardware units worth $35 billion last month, with financing provided jointly by Apollo and Blackstone, while Broadcom offered residual value guarantees.

In addition, Google has enlisted companies such as TerraWolf, Cipher Digital, and Hut 8—formerly cryptocurrency mining firms—to build data centers and ensure power supply stability.
