Production and Holdings

As the only self-owned and operated mining pool among public miners, MARA Pool allows the company to retain the full value of block rewards, eliminating fees to external operators. The pool’s block reward luck has outperformed the network average by over 10%, contributing significantly to the high block production.
Key metrics for May included an energized hashrate of 58.3 EH/s, a 2% increase from April. The average BTC produced per day rose to 30.7, up 31% from April’s figures. MARA’s share of available miner rewards increased to 6.5%, up from 5.1% the previous month.
Strategic Focus
MARA continues to focus on becoming a vertically integrated digital energy and infrastructure company. This strategy is designed to enhance operational control, improve cost-efficiency, and increase resilience to economic changes. The company’s approach aims to leverage high-intensity compute to monetize excess energy and optimize power management.
As the digital asset market continues to evolve, MARA’s strategic initiatives and operational efficiencies position it well for future growth. The company’s performance in May underscores its commitment to innovation and leadership in the cryptocurrency mining sector.
