Bitcoin Miner MARA Clears Its BTC-Backed Debt and Approves $500 Million Buyback After Q3 Profit
MARA Holdings repaid its $750 million in bitcoin-collateralized loans and approved a $500 million share buyback after posting a Q3 profit. Unchained calculates the miner retained about $350 million from its bitcoin sale after clearing the debt. Traders may read the deleveraging and buyback as a sign of miner balance-sheet strength, reducing forced-seller risk tied to MARA's BTC holdings.
