# MARAReports1.3BQ1NetLoss

Bitcoin miner MARA reported Q1 revenue of 174.6 million US dollars with a net loss of 1.3 billion US dollars, widening from 533.4 million US dollars a year earlier. The loss was primarily driven by a 1 billion US dollar fair value reduction on digital assets as Bitcoin dropped 22 percent during the quarter. The company mined 2，247 BTC at an average cost of 76，288 US dollars but sold 20，880 BTC at a low average price of 70，137 US dollars. It currently holds 35，303 BTC worth about 2.4 billion US dollars. Notably, CEO Frederick Thiel said the company is shifting from mining to an "energy monetization" model, acquiring the Long Ridge power plant and expanding into AI data centers to hedge Bitcoin volatility with stable power plant cash flow. This is a key case study for mining industry transformation.
