Riot Platforms, a Bitcoin mining and data center company, sold 1,818 bitcoins for $161 million in December 2025, reducing its total holdings to 18,005 bitcoins, with a current market value of $1.7 billion.
The sale represents part of the company's ongoing strategy to fund business expansions with Bitcoin liquidity. Riot has historically used Bitcoin sales and stock offerings as part of its trade finance approach.
Riot reported mining 460 bitcoins during the period, up 8 percent from November but down 11 percent from a year ago, according to monthly operating data released Tuesday.
The miner expanded its deployed hash rate to 38.5 EH/s, benefiting from higher power and demand response credits, which reached $6.2 million in December. Riot's all-in energy cost has dropped to 3.9 cents per kilowatt, while fleet efficiency has improved year over year.
Riot released its final monthly product update in December, with future releases focused on business performance and data center strategy in its quarterly report.
