Largest Bitcoin mining firm sold 63% of mined $BTC in May
Marathon Digital sold 63% of its Bitcoin production in May, which amounted to 390 out of 616 BTC mined, according to its first report following the Bitcoin halving event. The large sale was contrasted by other mining firms like Riot Platforms, which sold none of its Bitcoin, and CleanSpark, which sold a small portion. Miners are seeking to expand their fleets and improve efficiency to remain competitive as rewards shrink. CleanSpark, for example, is said to be “highly active in the M&A space,” while Marathon is exploring overseas opportunities.
