MARA Hits 50K BTC, Aims for 75 EH/s by Year‑End
MARA reaches 50,000 BTC treasury and will scale hash rate to 75 EH/s by year‑end, backed by low‑cost power and miner orders.
- MARA now holds ~50,000 BTC, boosted by mining and strategic buys
- June production dipped 25% due to weather and equipment issues
- Company targets 75 EH/s hash power by December
MARA, one of the largest Bitcoin mining firms, has reached a major milestone—its Bitcoin holdings now total 50,000. This vaults the company into second place among public firms in terms of BTC reserves, trailing only MicroStrategy. The accumulation strategy combines consistent mining rewards and periodic strategic purchases, reflecting MARA’s commitment to being both a miner and a long-term BTC holder.
The company’s leadership called the milestone a validation of its growth model, which relies on both expanding mining capacity and capitalizing on favorable market conditions.
June Slowdown Was Temporary
In June, MARA produced 713 BTC—a 25% drop from May. The decline was mainly due to curtailments in power usage during extreme weather and the temporary deployment of older-generation mining rigs. However, despite this downturn, MARA held onto all of its June production, underscoring its long-term accumulation approach.
Operational slowdowns are not uncommon in the mining sector, especially when infrastructure upgrades or energy management strategies are in play. This minor dip is unlikely to affect the company’s year-end outlook.
Scaling Up to 75 EH/s by Year-End
MARA currently operates around 57 EH/s of hash power and has set an ambitious target of reaching 75 EH/s by the end of 2025. This would mark a roughly 40% increase in computing power, positioning the company as an even more dominant force in the mining landscape.
The path to this target is already underway. MARA has secured low-cost power capacity and placed orders for next-generation mining machines. With over 1.1 GW of live power and more in development, the company is confident in hitting its hash rate goal, ensuring it remains competitive and profitable in a post-halving environment.
