BitMine Aggressively Expands Ethereum Holdings, Aiming for 5% of Total Supply

BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) is rapidly solidifying its position as the world’s leading corporate Ethereum treasury. According to recent on-chain data from Arkham Monitoring, the firm acquired an additional 30,075 ETH (approximately $88.73 million) this week via FalconX, bringing its total weekly investment to over $229 million.

Strategic Accumulation and Supply Dominance

BitMine’s recent buying spree is part of a massive 30-day window in which the company has scooped up 407,331 ETH. Key highlights of their current treasury status include:

• Current Holdings: The firm now controls over 3.2% of the total ETH supply.
• Long-term Goal: Management has stated an ambitious target to eventually own 5% of all Ether in circulation.
• Institutional Scale: Recent acquisitions were processed through major platforms including BitGo, Kraken, and FalconX, representing some of the largest corporate inflows into Ethereum this year.

ARK Invest Increases Stake Despite Stock Volatility

While BitMine’s ETH accumulation remains aggressive, its stock performance has seen recent turbulence. Shares of BMNR fell 3.04% on Thursday, closing at $29.32.

Despite the price dip, Cathie Wood’s ARK Invest remains highly bullish. ARK recently purchased $10.56 million worth of BitMine shares, adding to a previous $17 million position. This move was part of a broader crypto-focused buying spree by ARK, which also included multi-million dollar investments in Coinbase and Bullish.

The Bottom Line

BitMine is no longer just a participant in the market; it has become a central pillar of Ethereum’s corporate adoption. By leveraging market slumps to increase its treasury, the company is betting heavily on the long-term value of the Ethereum network, even as its own stock faces short-term volatility.
