The company also said it it has the potential to produce 15 to 20 Bitcoins per day at an average production cost of $3,863 per Bitcoin once all 23,560 miners are deployed, and it sees it producing 2.6 EH/S which will account for 2.0% of the global Bitcoin Hasrate.

The hype surrounding Bitcoin has built up again over the past few weeks as it approaches its all-time high of just under $20,000, trading above $17,000 for the first time in three years. At the time of this publication, it is trading at $17,922.
Legendary investor Paul Tudor Jones has jumped on board, saying that he thinks “we are in the first inning of bitcoin, and its a long way to go.”
Another legendary investor, Ray Dalio, said yesterday that he “might be missing something about bitcoin,” but, he still sees reasons why it cannot be a reliable currency.
As we head into the US opening bell, Marathon shares are trading at $3.35, up 8.06% premarket after gaining 25% on Tuesday.
