Bitmine ramps up Ether buys, pushes holdings toward 5% of total supply

While others refrain from boosting their Ether holdings, Bitmine’s latest purchase gives it ownership of about 4% of total supply as the company expands its staking strategy.

Bitmine Immersion Technologies said Monday that it purchased 71,524 Ether over the past week, bringing its total holdings to about 4.87 million tokens.

The company said the position represents roughly 4.04% of the total Ether (ETH) supply, based on about 120.7 million tokens outstanding, as it continues to pursue a target of acquiring up to 5% of global supply. Its balance sheet also includes 198 Bitcoin (BTC) and about $719 million in cash.

Bitmine said the latest purchase marks its fastest weekly pace of Ether accumulation since December 2025.
