MARA increases Bitcoin production by 35% amid new hashrate highs

  • Marathon Digital Holdings mined 950 Bitcoin in May 2025, setting a new monthly production record at its Ohio facility.
  • This increase followed the April 2024 halving that reduced block rewards by half, prompting MARA to expand capacity and improve efficiency.
  • MARA achieved a record 282 block wins in May, representing a 38% increase from April, and expanded its operational hashrate to 58.3 exahashes per second, following the deployment of 12,000 new miners.
  • The company retained all 950 Bitcoins mined in May, increasing its overall holdings to 49,179 BTC, which are valued at roughly $5.2 billion. CEO Fred Thiel described the month as a record-breaking period for the firm.
  • MARA’s performance demonstrates resilience amid rising mining difficulty and supports its dual strategy of mining expansion and AI infrastructure investment for long-term growth.
