Should You Forget Bitcoin and Buy MARA Holdings Instead?
After peaking at $124,774 per coin on Oct. 7, 2025, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) has taken a tumble. As of the market close on Dec. 16, the leading cryptocurrency has dropped 31% to $86,413.
At the same time, Bitcoin mining veteran MARA Holdings (NASDAQ: MARA) has plunged 53% since mid-October. Assuming you see brighter days ahead for Bitcoin and the broader crypto market, should you forget about Bitcoin and invest in MARA's deeper discount today?
MARA has been a cryptocurrency mining specialist for a few years now. Then known as Marathon Patent Group, the company had built expertise in encryption technologies for more than a decade. It bought its first $150 million of Bitcoin and some mining equipment in January 2021, changed its name to Marathon Digital Holdings to reflect its newfound cryptocurrency focus, and set off on new adventures.
