Marathon Digital Announces $700M Fundraising Plan to Boost Bitcoin Acquisitions

Bitcoin mining giant Marathon Digital has stirred the market with its latest move to secure $700 million to expand its Bitcoin acquisition strategy.

The company announced plans for a private offering of 0% convertible senior notes due 2031, targeting institutional investors. This initiative has fueled optimism about Bitcoin’s prospects, following MARA’s history of substantial investments in the cryptocurrency.

In its announcement, MARA outlined a proposal for $700 million in unsecured convertible notes, granting initial buyers the option to acquire an additional $105 million within 13 days of issuance. While the offering is subject to market conditions, the company confirmed its primary goal: using the funds to increase its Bitcoin holdings and partially repurchase $50 million of 2026 convertible notes.

Despite the offering’s unsecured nature, the move highlights MARA’s confidence in Bitcoin’s potential and its strategy to solidify its position as a leading player in the mining sector. This follows a prior $1 billion private offering that was also directed toward Bitcoin accumulation.
