Alpha T on Capital closes $46 million AI infrastructure expansion to address demands for confidential compute by BTC Wire. January 12, 2026 New York, New York, Alpha T on Capital Corp, NASDAQ, Aton, the world's leading public technology company scaling the Telegram Super app, with an addressable market of 1 billion monthly active users, today reports the signing and closing of a strategic $46 million AI compute infrastructure deal, adding 576 Nvidia B-300 chips, a half-cluster, to its books. This deployment, scheduled for delivery next month in February, is projected to deliver a 27% IRR, 282% ROI, and a net present value of $11 million,

building on Alphaton's existing $20 million in assets on its balance sheet. Alpha T-on is pioneering a new category in artificial intelligence, providing privacy-preserving, decentralized AI infrastructure deployed at scale through its integration with Telegrams ecosystem and cocoon AI's groundbreaking confidential compute network. Alpha T-on is providing a full stack, vertically integrated approach to data sovereignty and privacy-centric AI technologies, positioning itself at the intersection of three major trends. One, $7 trillion AI infrastructure market build out. Two, global shift toward privacy and data ownership rights and three the rise of decentralized computing networks 46 million dollars sovereign GPU cluster the iinfra shtr uc t u r e opportunity alphaton's

Alpha T. On aims to pro-Veed accessibility to privacy-centric market alternatives. The project is structured with $4 million already paid by Alpha T on to close the deal with cash from its balance sheet, $32, $7 million of closed non-recourse debt financing, and an additional $9. 3M in equity across small installments paid by Alpha T-O-N ahead of delivery in February and full deployment in March. The structure provides conservative financial leverage.

with manageable risk, with at-well-month grace period for installation, meaning no debt or interest payments are due until after the B-300s are installed and revenue-producing from Marsh onward.

Managed services will be provided by Kudo- Computin-S-N-E Energy Limited, with financing arranged by vertical data and leap. The Privacy First I-I-N-F-R-A-S-T-U-R-E thesis Big Tech's dominance of AI infrastructure creates

in existential conflict, all big tech companies control the data input by clients and the usage and monetization of that data. For enterprises, governments, and individuals that require data sovereignty, whether for regulatory compliance, competitive protection, or ethical principles, there has been no large-scale alternative in the market. Alpha T-on solves this through vertical integration. 1. Hardware layer sovereign GPU clusters owned and controlled outside Big Tech's ecosystem. 2. Network layer. Cocoon AI's decentralized, privacy preserving, confidential compute network delivering AI inference services without data collection.

3. Distribution layer. Telegrams 1 plus billion users providing unprecedented reach for privacy first AI applications. Greater than, we are contributing confidential compute power to the world's largest greater than privacy preserving AI network. Brittany Kaiser, CEO of Alpha T on, stated. greater than, cocoon provides compute that isn't owned or monitored by big tech, a greater than privacy first network where users maintain sovereignty over their data. This greater than is not a philosophical position, it's a trillion dollar market requirement greater than that Alpha T-Eon is uniquely

positioned to capture. Greater than, while the broader market remains volatile, Alpha T-on has systematically greater than de-risked our capital structure by adding physical compute assets, strategic greater than partnerships, and revenue-generating infrastructure, said Enzo Villani, CIO greater than of alpha-t on capital. Our balance sheet today represents not just capital greater than preservation, but offensive positioning for the AI infrastructure supercycle greater than ahead. One of the largest growing markets' recent market dynamics have transformed AI infrastructure from a speculative sector into a systemic economic necessity. Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, Alphabet, Oracle, and other hyperscalers spent over $400 billion on AI

infrastructure in 2025 and are projected to spend over $600 billion in cumulative AI capital expenditures in 26. The U.S. government views this as a national priority, taking a 10% stake in Intel to ensure domestic semiconductor supremacy and to send a clear message. AI infrastructure has become critical national infrastructure. Analysis agree that global data center capacity must nearly triple by 2030, requiring up to $7 trillion in investment, with 70% of new demand driven by AI workloads. Alpha Tion is building for the future by securing advanced chip locations and data center agreements in a variety of jurisdictions to ensure continued scaled deployments of infrastructure investments

that benefit from this macro tailwind while simultaneously offering differentiation through ITS privacy first positioning. Update from former market announcements on November 26th, 2025, Alpha T on announced it had entered into agreements to acquire a cluster of 1,000 plus Nvidia B-200 GPUs. This set of agreements to purchase a half cluster of 576 Nvidia B-300 GPS supersedes the prior agreements. 576 NV-N-V-I-D-A-B-300 will be Alpha T on Capital's first larger-scale deployment, in partnership with at North, S-N-E-T Energy Limited. Kudo-compute, vertical data and L-EAP. This builds upon Al-Faton's current pilot deployments of 8-NVIDIA-B-200s,

8-N-V-I-D-I-B-200s and 16 Nvidia B-300s in process with Atlantic AI. Since the launch-off telegrams Kekoon AI on November 30, 2025, Alpha T-on has started earning revenues on Kikoon for its AI inference processing and now has enough data to-scale. about ALPHA T-O-N Capital Corp, NASDAQ, A-T-A-T-on, Alpha T on Capital Corp, NASDAQ, A-T, is the world's leading technology public company scaling the Telegram Super app with an addressable market of one billion monthly active users while managing a strategic reserve of digital assets.
