Post former US President Donald Trump’s slogan, the Bitcoin Mining firm Marathon Digital Holdings has conceded and decided to stamp every Bitcoin mining in the country as ‘Made in USA.’

Chairman and CEO of Marathon Digital Holdings also reposted the tweet and added, “ Every block mined by MARA Pool in the USA is proudly stamped “Made in USA”.
This decision to stamp mined BTC comes after presidential candidate and former President Donald Trump wrote that he wants all the remaining BTC to be “Made in the USA.”

The post was part of a stunt to promote the presidential campaign on his social media platform, Truth Social.
Trump has time and again effortlessly pitched crypto in his campaigns, and he also called BTC the country’s “last line of defense” against a central bank digital currency.
On the other hand, Thiel recently shared his views on crypto and the Republican party’s possible stance regarding it at the Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville. Thiel suggested that BTC mining may “flourish” under the Trump administration.
Apart from the ‘proud US stamp’ stunt, Marathon Digital also announced a $250 million offering of senior convertible notes for institutional buyers. The money raised from this will be directed towards further BTC holdings.
