简而言之 MARA Holdings 正在从 HIF USA 手中收购德克萨斯州马塔戈达县 1,200 多英亩的发电站,到 2028 年 4 月将获得高达 2 吉瓦的电网容量。 该站点将成为人工智能/高性能计算工作负载和比特币挖掘的计算园区; HIF 保留少数股权并继续在其他地方开展燃料项目。 该公告发布后,MARA 股价周四飙升,2026 年迄今已上涨 50% 以上。 上市的比特币矿业巨头 MARA Holdings 正在加大力度押注,认为美国电网(而不是加密货币本身)才是值得拥有的真正资产。消息公布后,其股价周四大幅上涨。 这家总部位于迈阿密的公司周四宣布,已与合成燃料开发商 HIF USA 达成协议,收购德克萨斯州马塔戈达县(休斯顿西南约 90 英里)的一大片土地。该场地占地超过 1,200 英亩,拥有巨大的电网容量:到 2027 年 10 月可达 1 吉瓦,次年春季可达 2 吉瓦。
MARA 计划将该地产改造成与喜达屋数字风险投资公司 (Starwood Digital Ventures) 共同开发的计算园区,可容纳人工智能数据中心和开采比特币的高耗能机器。 HIF 一直在关注该地点的燃料生产计划,一旦计算租户签署租约,该公司将保留少数股权,并表示将继续在德克萨斯州其他地方和国外开展其他燃料项目。 据雅虎财经报道,MARA 股价当天上涨超过 15%,近期价格为 13.87 美元,推动该公司月度涨幅超过 4%。 2026 年迄今为止,由于人工智能计算需求巨大以及投资者的炒作,MARA 股价已上涨超过 54%。 这笔交易是重塑电力行业的不寻常融合的最新迹象:曾经纯粹以开采比特币而闻名的公司正在转型为基础设施开发商,追逐人工智能公司迫切需要的稀缺电子。 MARA表示,这笔交易一旦全面完成,将有助于将其总电力组合推至近4.8吉瓦,其中包括之前宣布的对俄亥俄州一座发电厂的收购,这一规模可与一些地区公用事业公司相媲美。
MARA 董事长兼首席执行官 Fred Thiel 在一份声明中表示:“这项交易推进了我们确保战略位置基础设施资产能够支持高性能计算和比特币工作负载的战略。” “随着对数字基础设施的需求不断增长,我们相信能够获得可靠、可扩展电源的站点将变得越来越有价值。此次收购有意义地扩展了我们的长期开发渠道,并增强了我们支持高性能计算并随着时间的推移最大化该电源价值的能力。” 公司官员表示,对于德克萨斯州墨西哥湾沿岸的农村地区马塔戈达县来说,承诺更为具体:数以千计的建筑业和永久性工作岗位,MARA 表示已在该州投资了超过 12 亿美元。 每日简报时事通讯 每天从当前的热门新闻报道以及原创专题、播客、视频等开始。
In brief
MARA Holdings is acquiring a 1,200+ acre powered site in Matagorda County, Texas from HIF USA, gaining access to up to 2 GW of grid capacity by April 2028.
The site will become a computing campus for AI/HPC workloads and Bitcoin mining; HIF keeps a minority stake and continues its fuel projects elsewhere.
MARA shares spiked Thursday following the announcement, now up more than 50% so far in 2026.
MARA Holdings, the publicly traded Bitcoin-mining giant, is deepening its bet that America's power grid—not the cryptocurrency itself—is the real asset worth owning. And its stock is flying Thursday following the announcement.
The Miami-based company announced Thursday that it has struck a deal with HIF USA, a synthetic-fuels developer, to acquire a sprawling piece of land in Matagorda County, Texas, about 90 miles southwest of Houston. The site, spanning more than 1,200 acres, comes with access to significant electrical grid capacity: up to 1 gigawatt by October 2027, and as much as 2 gigawatts the following spring.
MARA plans to turn the property into a computing campus, developed alongside Starwood Digital Ventures, that could house both AI data centers and the energy-hungry machines that mine Bitcoin. HIF, which had been eyeing the site for its own fuel-production plans, will keep a minority stake once a computing tenant signs a lease, and says it will continue pursuing its other fuel projects elsewhere in Texas and abroad.
Shares in MARA are up more than 15% on the day at a recent price of $13.87, per Yahoo Finance, pushing the firm’s monthly gain above 4%. So far in 2026, MARA shares are up more than 54% on the back of sizable AI compute demand and the resulting hype from investors.
The transaction is the latest sign of an unusual convergence reshaping the power industry: companies once known purely for mining Bitcoin are transforming into infrastructure developers, chasing the same scarce electrons that AI companies desperately need.
MARA said the deal, once fully built out, would help push its total power portfolio to nearly 4.8 gigawatts—including a previously announced acquisition of an Ohio power plant—a scale that rivals some regional utilities.
“This transaction advances our strategy of securing strategically located infrastructure assets capable of supporting high-performance compute and Bitcoin workloads,” said MARA Chairman and CEO Fred Thiel, in a statement. “As demand for digital infrastructure continues to grow, we believe sites with access to reliable, scalable power will become increasingly valuable. This acquisition meaningfully expands our long-term development pipeline and strengthens our ability to support high-performance compute and maximize the value of that power over time.”
For Matagorda County, a rural stretch of the Texas Gulf Coast, the promise is more concrete: thousands of construction and permanent jobs, company officials said, as MARA adds to the more than $1.2 billion it says it has already invested in the state.
