MARA2026-08-10 15:19:57MARA Sold Over 23,000 BTC in H1 2026, Raking In ~$1.6BBitcoin miner MARA sold 23,093 BTC in the first half of 2026, generating approximately $1.6 billion at an average price of $70,631 per coin, according to blockchain data tracker The Data Nerd. The figure is significantly higher than what the market had previously understood. Despite the large-scale sell-off, MARA still holds 35,577 BTC — worth around $2.3 billion at current values. The Data Nerd pointed out that investors had focused mainly on MARA's growing bitcoin reserves, yet its actual sell-side volume is also notable. This sales activity reflects how mining companies are adjusting their capital structure under high capital expenditures and a shifting macro-environment for digital assets. The disclosure, reported by BlockBeats on August 10, provides a fuller picture of MARA's treasury management in a period when miners face pressure to fund operations and expand capacity. The figures underline that reserve accumulation and periodic selling can coexist at major public miners.1790
