What happened
Crusoe has raised $3.9 billion in a new funding round, according to TechCrunch.
The round values the data center company at $30.9 billion.
The company says the money will go toward building massive data centers as well as small modular "AI factories."
Why it matters
The size of the round and the resulting valuation suggest investors remain willing to commit large sums to data center capacity tied to AI workloads.
Crusoe's plan to pursue both very large data centers and smaller modular "AI factories" points to a two-track buildout strategy, though the source does not detail how the two approaches will differ or be deployed.
