Abstract generation in progress

Bitcoin mining company Marathon Digital Holdings (MARA) announced that it has purchased 11,774 BTC for approximately 1.1 billion dollars.

The purchase, financed through a bond offering, was made at an average price of $96,000 per BTC. As of December 9, 2024, MARA currently holds a total of 40,435 Bitcoins worth $3.9 billion at the spot price of $96,500 per Bitcoin.

The company recently announced that Bitcoin's QTD return is 12.3% and YTD return is 47.6%, demonstrating its performance.

However, this significant purchase has reignited debates about the market stability of Bitcoin. Leading BTC critic Peter Schiff expressed his skepticism and said the following:

In other words, Bitcoin is artificially supported through leveraged buying from MSTR and MARA due to insufficient real demand. This seems like a formula for disaster.

MicroStrategy recently announced that it has acquired a large amount of BTC. With the company's continued growth, there are ongoing discussions about the inclusion of MicroStrategy shares on Nasdaq.
