Mining Firm MARA Announces About 15% Layoffs, Further Strategic Shift Toward Energy and Digital Infrastructure

On April 3, U.S.-listed Bitcoin mining firm MARA announced a roughly 15% layoff, cutting full-time staff across multiple departments and some contract workers. The move is part of its strategic shift from a pure Bitcoin mining company to an energy and digital infrastructure firm. Earlier this February, MARA completed the majority acquisition of Exaion — a subsidiary of French state-owned energy giant EDF — officially entering the AI and high-performance computing space. It also struck a deal with data center developer Starwood to repurpose ~1 GW of mining infrastructure for AI workloads. Recently, MARA sold over 15,133 BTC (roughly $1.1 billion) to repay $1 billion in convertible bonds. This led to a full-year net loss of $1.3 billion in 2025, with adjusted EBITDA at -$330.8 million. Per Bitget market data, MARA stock bucked the trend with an 8.33% gain, closing at $8.17.

US Adjusts Steel, Aluminum, and Copper Tariffs: Exempt for Low Content, Value-based for High Content

**April 3 (Local Time) – President Donald Trump signed a statement Thursday adjusting U.S. national security tariffs on steel, aluminum, and copper imports. The changes aim to: - Lower tariff rates on metal-derived products - Simplify the import declaration process - Curb misdeclaration of import values The statement notes the U.S. will retain a 50% tariff on bulk steel, aluminum, and copper—but this rate applies to the price U.S. consumers pay. Other key updates: - Eliminate the 50% tariff on derivative products of these metals if their metal content (by weight) is below 15% - Remove Section 232 tariffs on products with very low metal content U.S. officials say the changes won’t have a significant economic impact compared to the prior tariff system. However, levying the 50% tariff on the total sales value of bulk metals may generate additional revenue. (Source: Jinse)**
