The company holds more than 2.069 million Ethereum tokens. This positions BitMine as the largest Ethereum treasury holder worldwide.
BitMine ranks as the second-largest crypto treasury globally. Only MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin holdings surpass BitMine’s total cryptocurrency reserves.
The announcement came alongside news of BitMine’s first strategic investment under its “Moonshot” initiative. The company invested $20 million in Eightco Holdings Inc. as part of its Ethereum ecosystem expansion strategy.
Strategic Investment Vision
BitMine’s investment in Eightco represents more than just financial backing. The company views this as supporting projects that enhance the broader Ethereum ecosystem.
Eightco plans to adopt Worldcoin as its primary treasury reserve asset. BitMine described this approach as “first-of-its-kind” in the current market environment.
The investment aligns with BitMine’s long-term goal of acquiring 5% of all Ethereum. Chairman Thomas “Tom” Lee of Fundstrat sees this as a major opportunity ahead.
Lee described Ethereum as “one of the biggest macro trades over the next 10β15 years.” He cited the convergence of Wall Street and AI on blockchain as the primary driver.
The company operates with a clear focus on cryptocurrency accumulation for long-term investment. BitMine’s business includes Bitcoin mining, synthetic Bitcoin mining, and hashrate financial products.
