The company ascribed a portion of the enhanced financial outcomes to a 467 percent increase in Bitcoin (BTC) production, which rose from 6.7 BTC mined daily in the third quarter of 2022 to 37.9 BTC mined daily in the third quarter of 2023.

Marathon's newly announced 27-megawatt hydro-powered mining venture in Paraguay contributed to a portion of its hashrate increase on November 8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
