這家上市加密貨幣礦商在聲明中表示，將透過私募發行 2031 年到期的可轉換優先票據籌集資金

Crypto miner Marathon Digital (NASDAQ:MARA) is aiming to raise $700 million to boost its Bitcoin stash, revealing surges in both revenue and production.

加密貨幣礦商 Marathon Digital（納斯達克股票代碼：MARA）計劃籌集 7 億美元來增加其比特幣儲備，收入和產量都將大幅增長。

The listed miner announced the fundraise on Monday in a statement, revealing plans to raise the funds through a private offering of convertible senior notes due 2031, targeting qualified institutional buyers with 0% interest-bearing notes.

這家上市礦業公司週一在一份聲明中宣布了此次融資，並透露計劃透過私募發行2031 年到期的可轉換優先票據籌集資金，目標對象為合格的機構買家，發行0% 計息票據。

Marathon also included an option for initial purchasers to buy an additional $105 million in notes within a 13-day window from the issuance date.

Marathon 還為初始購買者提供了在發行之日起 13 天內額外購買 1.05 億美元票據的選項。

Proceeds will be primarily used to bolster MARA’s Bitcoin reserves, with up to $50 million allocated for repurchasing 2026 convertible notes.

所得收益將主要用於增加 MARA 的比特幣儲備，其中最多 5,000 萬美元用於回購 2026 年可轉換票據。

Marathon’s Bitcoin production increased by 26% month-over-month to 907 BTC, while its energized hash rate surged 15% to reach 46.1 EH/s. The miner also reported the highest number of blocks mined in a single month at 254, marking a 27% increase from October.

Marathon 的比特幣產量較上季成長 26% 至 907 BTC，而其活躍哈希率飆升 15% 至 46.1 EH/s。該礦商還報告稱，單月開採的區塊數量最高為 254 個，較 10 月增加了 27%。

“November was a record-breaking month for MARA, with our mining operations achieving unprecedented levels of production driven by the successful deployment of additional miners and enhanced operational efficiency,” said Fred Thiel, MARA’s Chairman and CEO.

MARA 董事長兼執行長Fred Thiel 表示：「11 月對MARA 來說是破紀錄的一個月，在成功部署更多礦工和提高營運效率的推動下，我們的採礦作業實現了前所未有的生產水準。 」

Marathon’s success is indicative of the wider crypto mining industry, with a JP Morgan report revealing that the total market cap of the 14 publicly listed Bitcoin miners in the bank’s coverage surged 52% in November to $36.2 billion.

Marathon 的成功表明了更廣泛的加密貨幣挖礦業，摩根大通的一份報告顯示，該銀行覆蓋的 14 家公開上市比特幣礦商的總市值 11 月飆升 52% 至 362 億美元。

Average network hashrates increased by 4% month-on-month to 731 exahash per second (EH/s), while mining difficulty increased by 7% from October.

平均網路算力較上季成長 4% 至每秒 731 exahash (EH/s)，而挖礦難度較 10 月成長 7%。
