Highlights
- MARA reports 829 Bitcoin mined in March 2025
- Monthly production up 17% compared to February
- Company's Bitcoin holdings surpass 47,000 BTC
Bitcoin mining firm MARA released robust production numbers for March 2025. The numbers show a 17% gain over February when 706 BTC was produced.
The company also purchased 242 blocks in March, the third highest on record and a 17% jump over February’s 206 blocks. As per the announcement, MARA’s daily average Bitcoin production rose to 26.8 BTC per day, 6% above February’s 25.2 BTC per day.
MARAPool Driving Operational Efficiency
MARA’s own-operated mining pool remains a major differentiator for the firm in the highly competitive Bitcoin mining industry. In the view of CEO Fred Thiel, “MARAPool is the only self-owned and operated mining pool among public miners, providing unique control and efficiency.”
The company touts a number of benefits from maintaining its own pool of mines instead of pooling with third-party pools. By eliminating charges to third-party operators, MARA gets to keep more of its mining dividends and has complete control over mining operations. Its integrated model has translated into quantifiable performance gains.
Thiel noted in the announcement that “MARA Pool’s luck factor has exceeded the network average by over 10% since launch, meaning more blocks mined and higher rewards.” This efficiency metric shows that the company has been more successful at finding blocks than would be expected based solely on its share of the global hashrate.
MARA reported its share of available miner rewards reached 5.8% in March, up from 5.4% in February. In the meantime, fees from transactions represented 1.3% of all mining revenue, a small drop from 1.4% last month.
MARA’s Next Plans In Mining
MARA continues expanding its mining infrastructure with construction of its new 40-megawatt data center in Ohio nearing completion. According to the company’s announcement, this facility is expected to be finished by the end of April 2025, adding to MARA’s geographic diversification and hashrate capacity.
“We will continue to focus on being the dominant player in bitcoin mining while expanding our footprint in energy generation,” said Thiel. He referred to the company’s twin strategy of expanding both its mining activities and energy capacity.
It follows MARA’s continued dominance in the Bitcoin mining sector, with its 54.3 EH/s hashrate accounting for a significant percentage of the world’s Bitcoin network computing power.
While the global Bitcoin hashrate and mining difficulty continues to trend higher, MARA’s mining production has increased. Higher hashrate and mining difficulty, in general, puts miners at a disadvantage when coming to producing blocks. MARA’s increase in production during this phase indicates good management of operational and strategic deployment of allocated mine capacity.
Analysts Say What’s Next for Bitcoin
In terms of market context and the perspectives of analysts, the price of Bitcoin is the continuing determinant for mining companies like MARA, as it has direct consequences on revenue and profitability with market prices. In the cryptocurrency market, analysts have fundamentally different perspectives with regards to Bitcoin’s price direction over the near term.
Analyst CryptoELITES posted a positive outlook on X, saying “Bitcoin’s path to $150K has started! April & May will be explosive—at least $120K is coming.” This positive outlook indicates possible revenue expansion for Bitcoin miners if such price targets are achieved.

But not everyone watching the market feels that way. BitBull analyst noted technical hurdles, saying on X, “BTC is at a critical decision point! – Broke out of the wedge but rejected hard – If support fails, $74K could be the next stop.
MARA’s strategy of buying Bitcoin now with over 47,000 BTC positions the company to gain from possible price appreciation. It is also the second largest BTC-holding public company behind Strategy. Interestingly, Strategy just increased their holdings by purchasing 22,048 BTC on March 31.
