Mining corporation Marathon Digital increases funds for purchasing additional bitcoins, inflating its bitcoin treasury to a substantial $5,910,000,000.
In the ever-evolving world of cryptocurrency, Bitcoin mining companies are adopting diverse strategies to expand operations and integrate crypto assets into their treasuries.
Capital Raising Activities
Marathon Digital Holdings (MARA) significantly increased its capital by raising $204 million in Q2 2025 through stock sales, more than doubling its Q1 earnings of $80 million. The company also issued a $1 billion zero-coupon convertible note due in 2032. Notably, MARA has not tapped its credit facility in Q2, opting for equity funding to support growth without selling Bitcoin.
In contrast, Riot Platforms reduced its equity raises to $51 million in Q2 from $70 million in Q1. The company heavily relied on debt and Bitcoin sales, selling 96.5% of its mined Bitcoin in Q2 to fund operations. Riot also increased its credit borrowings and secured a $200 million fully drawn credit facility with Coinbase.
Hive Digital Technologies opted for a unique capital strategy, employing a Bitcoin "pledge strategy" to finance expansion. By pledging over $200 million worth of Bitcoin to equipment suppliers, Hive financed its growth without diluting shareholders or increasing debt.
Strategic Crypto Reserves
LM Funding America reported holding a Bitcoin treasury valued at approximately $17.8 million as of July 31, 2025, consisting of 150.4 Bitcoin. The company saw a 7% increase in Bitcoin production and 20% growth in energy revenue, partly driven by reinvesting treasury assets into operations.
ECR Minerals formalised Bitcoin as a reserve asset, allocating up to 50% of its free cash flow from gold production and liquid reserves to purchasing Bitcoin. This move integrates cryptocurrency alongside traditional gold reserves, marking a pioneering move in the British mining sector.
These developments highlight both operational scaling and the adoption of Bitcoin as a recognised treasury asset among mining and related companies in 2025. MARA, currently the second-leading public Bitcoin treasury company, plans to use some of the newly raised capital to purchase more Bitcoin to build a strategic crypto reserve.
The broader industry is also integrating digital assets into corporate treasury management, with public companies raising billions of dollars to create crypto treasuries with holdings such as Binance Coin (BNB) and Solana. American software company Strategy remains the biggest with 628,791 BTC.
While these developments offer promising signs for the future of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, they also underscore the need for vigilance against scams, hacks, and breaches. Recent incidents include the draining of $27,000 from a Bank of America customer and the loss of 25 years of life savings by a mechanic. Regulators continue to play a crucial role in ensuring the safety and integrity of the cryptocurrency market.
