Bitmine acquired 126,971 ETH valued at about $214 million in one week, increasing its total holdings to 5.54 million ETH, worth nearly $9.3 billion. This purchase represents 4.59% of Ethereum's circulating supply, with the company aiming to reach 5% ownership later this year. Chairman Thomas Lee stated the price drop doesn't reflect Ethereum's strong fundamentals, prompting Bitmine to accelerate buying despite market weakness. Bitmine also plans to raise capital through preferred equity shares to support further digital asset purchases.
