$MARA has the power and the land. Ready to hear about the tenants.
$MARA retail, if you made it, you have been tested. Rejoice, your heart is pure!
$MARA fiduciary duty? To who? To the institutions that tell you how to keep the price low so they can grab a bigger share? Were they there when you nearly went bankrupt in the previous cycle?
$MARA: a progress report, since management isn't writing one.
May shareholder letter: "We intend to communicate clearly as our pipeline advances."
Everything communicated since the Aug 6 call:
??? — ???
That's the list.
Here's what happened in the silence:
• Stock: −45% in a month, −65% in a year, a whisker above the 52-week low. Over five years bitcoin is up. MARA is down 87%. At some point "it's the cycle" stops being an explanation.
• August, the CEO: "The foundation has been built. Our focus now is monetizing it." Eleven weeks later, the only thing visibly leaving the building is the bitcoin: ~2,000 BTC (~$164M) moved to Galaxy and exchanges this month. Explanation to shareholders: none. On-chain trackers are now MARA's most responsive IR department.
• Long Ridge: the seller guided a Q3 close. Q3 is over. FERC approval was expected "soon." The PJM market monitor, which asked FERC to attach conditions, filed again in September. Shareholders learned that from the docket, not from MARA.
• Leases: "at least two by year-end." But Hannibal lease signing is paused until Long Ridge closes, so the lease target now hangs on a regulator management can't hurry and won't discuss.
• Starwood JV: announced in February, ~1 GW "near-term." Eight months, zero tenants announced. And the 8-K fine print: once Starwood lands a qualifying hyperscaler lease, if MARA doesn't come in, it must sell its rights to the powered land to Starwood. "Capital-light" sounds elegant until you notice who's light on capital.
• Funding: $600M of new bitcoin-backed debt at ~7.6%, leaving ~54% of the stack pledged. HODL, but make it collateral.
• The CFO sold 16,000 shares at $7.88 on Oct 19. Retail got the silence for free.
Then there's investor relations.
In the $MARA Bulls chat, a board member of a competitor dropped by to advertise a BGDE chat run by the same host, where, she noted, the executives are in the mix talking directly with shareholders. "No velvet ropes."
A rival's director walked into MARA's living room to mention that over at her place, management actually shows up. Nobody from MARA objected. What would they have said?
The host of that chat says her largest position in the sector is BGDE, plus CIFR, WULF, CLSK and KEEL. MARA didn't make the list. When the person hosting the MARA bulls chat doesn't name MARA among her holdings, what exactly is the pitch?
Meet @OGAdvisors: "IR for Bitcoin & AI," followed by @MARA's own account, with other miners and competitors on the client roster. Running a rival's chat while a rival's director recruits from yours isn't investor relations. It's a referral service, and MARA shareholders are the ones being referred.
The problem isn't #bitcoin; every miner lives with the same bitcoin. JPMorgan's double downgrade said it politely: peers convert their own power into compute, MARA hands it to a partner and keeps a slice.
Close Long Ridge. Sign a lease. Put a Q3 date on the calendar. And ask @OGAdvisors whose shareholders they're actually building.

Dear Fred,
As a longtime shareholder who has loved MARA since its days as a powerhouse in traditional $BTC mining, seeing our stock back at $7 is deeply painful.
Even as competing miners aggressively pivoted to AI and saw their stocks rise 5x or even 10x, I never lost faith in MARA.
Because I believed in the company's AI strategy. And more importantly, I believed in you and your leadership team.
With just two months left in 2026, I sincerely hope you will show us what true leadership and accountability look like.
I take full responsibility for my investment decisions. But you, Fred, must take full responsibility for how MARA is managed.

Replying to @l_wcw
Book Value serves as a fundamental floor which is far different than the floor that speculation or hype offers
Says nothing really about potential upside, but certainly a valid data point when considering how much more of a discount to current $MARA price should be anticipated
$MARA just a few cleans and ding removals away from mint condition

Saying $MARA is a pile of dung is too kind. MARA is a soggy cardboard box full of maggot infested tuna salad on a 100⁰ day.
The market wiped the AI premium off $MARA.
No signed contract to hold a floor.
So it fell to the only floor it has: its bitcoin.

Can you catch this from owning a few shares of $MARA?

As per Trading View, professional analysts are projecting that $MARA will deliver negative $0.37 EPS in Q3 when they report earnings, but anyone with a brain knows when you divide $1 Billion in Profit by 386 Million shares you get a positive $2.59 EPS
Why are they always wrong?
How absolutely dumb to believe a word of this. In the vastness of space, they are fighting it out right in front of us???? No, the obvious truth learned here:
1. It's a lie
Or
2. Space is a fraction of the size you have been told it is, so another lie.
