| Hosted sites (legacy) | Multiple US states | Hosted (rationalized over 2024-2025) | ~100 MW (declining) | ~5.0 declining | Various | |

| Editorial. Why this matters | Strategic context | MARA's pending Long Ridge acquisition is the marquee 2026 strategic shift: pivot from hosted/mixed model to vertically integrated owned-power-generation. Funding the deal with BTC + cash tests the 'miner-as-HODL' thesis. Marquee question: does fleet PUE improve toward 1.05-1.10 + does Long Ridge integrated gas-power scale toward ~505 MW BTC mining by FY2027, validating the new model? |
