Bitmine bought $75 million ether as Tom Lee says institutions are still underweight crypto
In this news:
Bitmine Immersion Technologies BMNR$27.54, the largest Ethereum treasury firm, bought another 27,562 ether
The purchase was worth about $75.2 million at Monday’s ether price of $2,727, lifting Bitmine’s holdings to 5,983,940 ETH. That’s about 4.9% of the token’s 122.1 million supply, keeping the company close to its goal of owning 5%.
The firm has been buying at a similar pace in recent weeks and, at that rate, could reach its accumulation goal in the next couple of months. The company said it bought ether every week since June 2025, when it pivoted to a crypto treasury strategy.
Bitmine has staked about 5 million ETH, roughly 85% of its holdings, and projected a staking revenue of roughly $357 million annually at current yields.
Bitmine shares were 5.8% higher pre-market, extending Friday’s 8% rally as ETH surged overnight to a fresh high since late January.
Tom Lee sees year-end catch-up for crypto
Tom Lee, meanwhile, said institutional investors may be playing catch-up after favoring artificial intelligence-linked stocks earlier in the year.
