BitMine Continues Aggressive ETH Accumulation

Ethereum treasury company BitMine Immersion has expanded its holdings to more than 4.24 million ETH following a fresh purchase of 40,302 ETH.

At current prices, the company’s crypto and cash holdings total roughly $12.8 billion, making BitMine the largest Ethereum treasury holder globally.

Staking at Unprecedented Scale

Nearly 2.01 million ETH held by BitMine is now staked, representing close to half its total Ethereum position. Chairman Tom Lee said the firm’s staking operation could generate more than $370 million annually once fully deployed.

BitMine currently holds more ETH than any other corporate or institutional entity.
