CryptoSlate reports that MARA sold 
Bitcoin in a move aimed at eliminating a reported $750 million collateral risk. The available coverage does not specify the amount of Bitcoin sold, the execution price, or the exact structure and timing of the obligations affected.
The miner is nevertheless maintaining several possible uses for future Bitcoin monetization. CryptoSlate says those options include infrastructure spending, potential share buybacks, and holder-exercised bond puts, with dated cash proceeds and financing offers presented as alternatives. The breadth of these options means the sale cannot be treated solely as an infrastructure-funding decision.
