Maestro has launched Mezzamine, an on-chain credit platform designed to link idle BTC with miners seeking financing. The company said miners struggle to access affordable capital—75% report financing difficulties—while more than $2 trillion in bitcoin sits unused. Limited financing options push miners toward costly USD loans and equity dilution, contributing to rising centralization, with the top five pools earning 75% of block rewards. Mezzamine offers bitcoin-secured credit facilities to lower borrowing costs and give BTC holders yield opportunities, aiming to improve capital efficiency and support a more decentralized mining ecosystem.

Cleanspark announced plans to issue $1 billion in private convertible notes, allocating up to $400 million to repurchase its own shares from participating investors. The remaining funds will support power and land acquisitions, data center development, repayment of Bitcoin-backed loans, and other corporate needs. The notes, maturing on Feb. 15, 2032, carry no regular interest and may be converted to cash or stock after Aug. 15, 2031, at Cleanspark’s discretion. The company joins peers such as Terawulf and Bitfarms in leveraging convertible debt to fund expansion.

Residents of Hood County, Texas, have voted against creating a new municipality called Mitchell Bend, which aimed to impose local regulations on noise from Marathon Digital Holdings’ (MARA) nearby Bitcoin mining facility. According to The Texas Tribune, only 38% of 138 voters supported the measure, which sought to incorporate a two-square-mile area housing roughly 600 residents. Locals have complained for years about the constant hum from 60,000 Bitcoin miners, though the proposal’s failure means the site will remain under county jurisdiction.

NIP Group announced the expansion of its Bitcoin mining operations to reach a total capacity of 11.3 exahashes per second (EH/s). The company expects this upgrade to generate around 160 BTC per month, positioning it among the world’s leading publicly traded Bitcoin miners. The initiative supports NIPG’s broader strategy of integrating digital currencies, artificial intelligence (AI), and high-performance computing (HPC) into its gaming and entertainment ecosystem. The expansion is backed by partnerships in Abu Dhabi and involves acquiring 8.19 EH/s of infrastructure through share transactions expected to close by December 15, 2025.

Marathon Digital Holdings (MARA) has filed a 47-page federal lawsuit against Hood County, Texas, accusing local officials of unconstitutional actions in approving a ballot initiative to create a new municipality — Mitchell Bend — surrounding its Bitcoin mining facility near Granbury. MARA alleges that the proposed boundaries were deliberately drawn to encircle its site, enabling residents to “tax and regulate it out of business.” The company argues the move violates Texas Local Government Code provisions on incorporation requirements, including population, boundary definitions, and community status.
