Bitmine Immersion Technologies, with a flourish of digital grandeur, now holds the world’s largest Ethereum treasury, a staggering $8.8 billion. That’s more zeros than a villain’s bank account in a Hollywood blockbuster.
Bitmine’s Relentless ETH Hoarding: A Tale of Greed, Brilliance, and Bitcoin
The company now boasts a jaw-dropping 1,713,899 Ethereum (ETH), a mere 192 Bitcoin (BTC) (because who needs too much of that when you’ve got ETH, right?), and a tidy $562 million in cash as of Aug. 25. All this makes Bitmine the second-largest corporate crypto treasure chest on the planet, narrowly beaten by Strategy and its eye-watering Bitcoin hoard.
“At Bitmine, we’re not just holding crypto; we’re hoarding it like Scrooge McDuck in a digital vault,” says Bitmine Chairman, Tom Lee, who may have been sipping on something stronger than coffee when he uttered that gem.
In a delightful display of fiscal gluttony, the $8.8 billion mark represents a $2.2 billion surge from last week’s $6.6 billion, all thanks to the acquisition of an additional 190,500 ETH tokens. This, dear reader, is what we call “making money while you sleep.”
“We’re making moves with the kind of liquidity that Wall Street could only dream of,” Chairman Lee boasted. It’s all part of the company’s quest to snag a piece of the 5% of all ETH pie, which, spoiler alert, could soon be more valuable than gold-at least, according to Lee’s latest crystal ball gazing.
The latest spree is backed by a posse of investors, including the ever-so-savvy Cathie Wood from Ark Invest, Founders Fund, and Pantera Capital. As for Lee, he insists that Ethereum is a “macro trade,” forecasting that Wall Street and artificial intelligence (AI) will soon waltz over to the blockchain and make finance a whole lot more exciting. Who’s betting on that one?
This crypto-fueled spectacle is unfolding against the backdrop of US regulatory shifts-because why not add a little drama to the mix? The GENIUS Act and the SEC’s Project Crypto are making waves, but Bitmine is already swimming comfortably with its treasure chest.
