BitMine Now Holds $9B in Crypto Treasury, Fuels 1,000% Surge in WLD-Linked Stock

BitMine Immersion Technologies holds $9.2 billion in crypto and cash, aiming to support Ethereum's ecosystem and investing $20 million in Eightco Holdings, whose stock surged over 1,000%.

  • Eightco Holdings revealed plans for a private placement valued at $250 million alongside a $20 million injection from BitMine, with intentions to designate Worldcoin as its main treasury asset starting in 2025.
  • This event follows BitMine's pivot to an Ethereum treasury strategy in June and its aim to diversify into blockchain projects linked to digital identity infrastructure.
  • The deal includes issuing 13.7 million shares to BitMine at $1.46 each, with Eightco's shares surging over 1,000%, and Worldcoin's token rising nearly 50% in recent trading.
  • BitMine chairman Tom Lee described Worldcoin as an Ethereum-aligned project whose Proof of Human feature could become an essential trust layer for technology platforms.
  • The investments and strategic shift suggest growing interest in identity-tied tokens as potential institutional-grade reserve assets and highlight BitMine's expansion beyond mining.
