A report published October 31 said proposed Nvidia credit support for an Nscale data-center campus planned for Anthropic was unsigned at that point, and its terms could change. Bloomberg had reported on October 29 that Nvidia was discussing guarantees for the project, citing an unnamed person familiar with the private talks.
What the proposed guarantees would cover
Bloomberg reported that the Nscale campus in West Virginia would use Nvidia chips and that Anthropic planned to use the facility. The proposed guarantees would backstop electricity and construction costs. Bloomberg also reported that Nvidia was already an investor in Nscale.
In practical terms, the reported support would provide financial backing for those project costs. It was described as a proposed guarantee, not as a completed cash investment in the campus.
What the $45 billion figures describe
The Manila Times account carried by Newswav reported that Anthropic had agreed to spend $45 billion on computing power from Nscale. The same account separately described a possible sale of about 460 MW of AI computing power, potentially worth about $45 billion. Those figures concern reported computing arrangements, not Nvidia’s guarantee.
