MARA Holdings Bitcoin Treasury Overview
MARA is the largest publicly traded Bitcoin miner and long ran a full-HODL policy, retaining everything it mined. That changed in March 2026 when it sold 15,133 BTC for about $1.1 billion to repurchase convertible notes and fund its expansion into AI and high-performance-computing infrastructure — one of the year's defining corporate Bitcoin events. It still holds 36,303 BTC, and its shares gained about 31% in 2026 as investors rewarded the diversification.
