In a major strategic move, Mara Holdings – the largest Bitcoin miner in the world – announced its acquisition of 64% of Exaion, a subsidiary of Electricité de France, for $168 million, with an option to increase the stake to 75% by 2027 through an additional investment of $127 million.
📌 Key highlights of the deal:
🖥 Exaion specializes in data centers and high-performance computing, and has partnerships with giants like Nvidia and Deloitte.
🌐 The deal aims to enhance Mara's global capabilities in artificial intelligence and cloud computing, with a broader international distribution of clients in the public and private sectors.
⚡ Focus on data protection and energy efficiency to provide secure and scalable cloud solutions.
📊 Why is this move important?
With the difficulty of Bitcoin mining and rising energy consumption, Mara sees artificial intelligence as a strategic opportunity for expansion and generating new profits, especially since it holds 50,000 Bitcoins worth nearly $6 billion, and its revenues rose 64% in the second quarter to $238 million.
💬 CEO Fred Thiel:
> "Our partnership with Exaion gives us the quick start and credibility to enter the AI market, instead of starting from scratch."
🔥 Summary:
Mara is not content with its leadership in Bitcoin mining… now it firmly places its feet in the race for artificial intelligence! 🚀
