The CEO of MARA Holdings has gone all-in on bitcoin, adding billions of dollars worth of the world’s largest cryptocurrency to MARA’s balance sheet.
The total market cap of the miners the bank tracks grew 33% since the end October, the report said.
The Wall Street bank updated its models and price targets for the miners to account for second quarter results and changes in the price of bitcoin and the network hashrate.
The ability to raise debt or equity in the world’s deepest capital markets is a major advantage, the report said.
The broker upgraded the bitcoin miner’s shares to buy from sell and raised its price target on the stock to $13.50 from $7.50.
Spot bitcoin ETFs saw their second worst month since launching in the U.S., with an estimated $662 million of net outflows, the report said.
As bitcoin’s volatility is nearing historically low levels, the crypto market is in need of news or catalysts to bring traders to action, one market participant noted.
Mining stocks outperformed bitcoin in the first half of the month as investors reacted positively to news of Core Scientific’s AI deal with CoreWeave, the report said.
The two industries could add a collective $20 trillion to global GDP by 2030, the report said.
The stocks are undervalued, so miners with attractive power contracts could become M&A targets, according to Wall Street analysts.
