Marathon Digital (MARA) stock price death cross forms as BTC recoils

Marathon Digital (NASDAQ: MARA) stock price continued plunging this week as  Bitcoin resumed its sell-off. The shares crashed to a low of $7.85 on Thursday even as American stock s continued retreating. It has dropped by more than 60% from the highest level in September.
