More importantly, this is a treasury we built through disciplined infrastructure development, scaled operations, and focused execution.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this dip in production, MARA\u2019s bitcoin holdings surpassed 50,000 BTC for the first time,\u00a0 strengthening its position as the second largest publicly traded bitcoin holder. The company also reported a 3% increase in its energized hashrate, which now stands at 58.9 EH\/s.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe increased our energized hashrate by 3% over the previous month, and we are preparing to begin energizing the data center at our Texas wind farm in the second half of the year,\u201d Thiel stated. \u201cAlthough we encountered higher than expected curtailment at our Ohio sites, our teams improved operational efficiency at Wolf Hollow and Kearney by boosting productivity and streamlining the supply chain.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While operations in Ohio saw higher curtailment, MARA\u2019s sites in Texas, including Wolf Hollow and Kearney, became more efficient. As of July 31, 2025, the company holds 50,639 BTC, including loaned and pledged assets.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLooking ahead, what sets us apart is our thought leadership, worldwide operational scale, and capital and operational efficiency,\u201d he added. \u201cAs of June 30, 2025, we held over $5 billion in liquid assets, and with nearly <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/news\/mara-completes-950m-convertible-note-offering-to-purchase-more-bitcoin\">$1 billion<\/a> raised since, we have the flexibility to fund domestic growth and pursue international expansion. Unlike passive treasury companies, we treat our bitcoin as a productive, risk-managed asset. Through a disciplined asset management strategy, our holdings strengthen the balance sheet and help fund operations, which we believe will enhance long-term shareholder value. We don\u2019t just hold bitcoin, we put it to work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This post <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/news\/mara-stock-up-as-it-surpasses-50000-btc-in-bitcoin-holdings\">MARA Stock Up As It Surpasses 50,000 BTC in Bitcoin Holdings<\/a> first appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/\">Bitcoin Magazine<\/a> and is written by <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/authors\/oscarperez\">Oscar Zarraga Perez<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin Magazine MARA Stock Up As It Surpasses 50,000 BTC in Bitcoin Holdings MARA Holdings, Inc.
