About MARA Holdings

MARA, formerly Marathon Digital, is one of the biggest bitcoin miners in the world and for several years ran a full hold policy: it kept the coins it produced and bought more on the open market rather than selling production to cover costs. That made its balance sheet look more like a treasury company than a mining operation.

That policy ended in 2026. The company sold 23,093 bitcoin, roughly 1.6 billion dollars worth, in the first half of the year to pay down debt and fund a pivot into artificial intelligence and data centre infrastructure. Mining economics after the 2024 halving, combined with the bitcoin drawdown, made a leveraged hold position harder to justify.

The remaining stack is also less unencumbered than the headline number suggests. Around 4,742 coins are lent out and a further 4,528 are pledged as collateral, so a meaningful share of the position is already committed elsewhere.

Frequently asked questions

Does MARA still hold all the bitcoin it mines?

No. After years of holding production and buying more, it sold more than 23,000 coins in the first half of 2026 to reduce debt and fund its data centre business. Some of what remains is lent out or pledged as loan collateral.
