In a press release, the Bitcoin miner revealed that it had raised net proceeds of $980 million from its convertible notes sale after deducting the initial purchaser’s discounts and commissions but before the estimated offering expenses payable by the company.

This development is significant as MARA Holdings revealed that it will use some of the net proceeds to acquire additional BTC. It is worth mentioning that the Bitcoin miner already holds around 27,000 BTC and is the public company with the second-largest Bitcoin holdings.

This development comes as MARA also recently unveiled plans to raise $700m through convertible notes, which will mature in 2030. Meanwhile, the Bitcoin miner looks to be going head-to-head with MicroStrategy, which also recently upsized its private offering to $2.6 billion. The software company will use some of the proceeds to buy more BTC.
