The move comes as bitcoin miners have gone through a difficult year, with bitcoin's price sinking and higher energy prices driving up costs, which weighed on their profit margins. Marathon's stock price has fallen about 71% in last 12 months, while bitcoin fell about 40%, according to TradingView data.
