BitMine Immersion Technologies has acquired another 9,587 Ethereum (ETH) over the past week, bringing its holdings to 6,070,092 ETH, or 4.97% of the cryptocurrency’s total supply. The purchase moves the company closer to its target of controlling 5% of Ethereum’s supply. According to its November 9 announcement, BitMine also reported $14.3 billion in combined cryptocurrency holdings, cash, marketable securities and other investments.
BitMine ETH Holdings Reach 6.07 Million as 5% Target Nears
BitMine’s latest acquisition extends a buying strategy that began on June 30, 2025. The company has continued purchasing Ethereum weekly as it builds one of the largest publicly disclosed corporate ETH treasuries.
The November 8 figures place its holdings at 4.97% of Ethereum’s estimated 122.2 million token supply. Based on that supply figure, BitMine needs approximately 39,908 additional ETH to reach its 5% target.
Chairman Tom Lee said the company has maintained regular purchases since launching its Ethereum treasury strategy. He also described the accumulation campaign as part of its long-term digital asset investment approach.
BitMine calls the initiative the “Alchemy of 5%.” It has reached approximately 99% of that target in 15 months, although further purchases would be needed to complete the remaining allocation.
BitMine Stakes 5.22 Million ETH as Rewards Approach $359M
Beyond accumulating Ethereum, BitMine has committed a substantial portion of its holdings to staking operations. The company reported 5,227,037 staked ETH as of November 8, representing approximately 86% of its total Ethereum holdings. At the disclosed ETH reference price of $2,234, those staked assets were valued at approximately $11.7 billion.
BitMine estimated annualized staking rewards of $309 million from its existing staked holdings. However, the projected figure increases to approximately $359 million if its full Ethereum treasury is staked through its validator infrastructure and staking partners. Both estimates use the company’s trailing seven-day staking yield of 2.65%.
They represent projected annualized rewards rather than guaranteed income. BitMine also operates MAVAN, its Made in America Validator Network, which supports Ethereum staking and validation services. The platform initially served its own treasury but has expanded to institutional investors, custodians and other ecosystem partners.
BitMine Reports $14.3 Billion in Crypto and Other Assets
Alongside its Ethereum holdings, BitMine disclosed 216 Bitcoin and $475 million in cash and marketable securities. Its investment portfolio also includes a $180 million stake in Beast Industries and $75 million in Eightco Holdings. Together, these assets brought its reported portfolio value to approximately $14.3 billion as of November 8.
Meanwhile, Lee linked the company’s Ethereum strategy to growing interest in ETH as a store of value. He cited Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin’s recent remarks supporting that role. Nevertheless, BitMine’s valuation remains sensitive to cryptocurrency prices, while its projected staking income depends on network yields and operating conditions.
