Bitmine said it bought 101,901 ETH last week and now earns staking revenue on 3.7 million tokens through its MAVAN platform.

  • On Monday, Bitmine Immersion Technologies reported its Ethereum holdings surpassed 5 million tokens, reaching 5,078,386 units, a milestone Chairman Thomas "Tom" Lee noted was achieved in roughly 10 months.
  • Guided by its "alchemy of 5%" philosophy, Bitmine aggressively accumulated 101,901 ETH last week to establish the cryptocurrency as its primary treasury reserve asset.
  • Bitmine recently launched the Made-in America VAlidator Network to manage staking operations, with 3,701,589 ETH currently staked generating annualized revenue of roughly $264 million.
  • The company's total cryptocurrency and cash holdings now reach $13.3 billion, including $940 million in cash and stakes in Beast Industries and Eightco Holdings, which Lee describes as "moonshots."
  • Characterizing Ethereum as a "war-time store of value," Bitmine pursues its goal of acquiring 5% of circulating ETH supply while leveraging Wall Street tokenization and agentic AI systems.
