Bitmine, headed by Tom Lee, experienced a significant drop in the value of its Ethereum strategy portfolio following recent market downturns. The company’s portfolio, consisting solely of Ethereum (ETH) assets, incurred total losses of approximately $6 billion.
According to current data, Bitmine’s ETH portfolio size stands at $9.67 billion. The company’s year-to-date loss is $2.28 billion, bringing its total loss to $5.97 billion. This represents a loss of approximately 38.18% compared to the total capital invested of $15.65 billion.
Bitmine holds a total of 4,031,739 ETH. The average purchase price is calculated at $3.882, and at current prices, all losses in the portfolio are recorded as “unrealized losses.” Since the company has not yet made any sales, the realized loss appears as $0.
The decline in portfolio value contrasts sharply with Tom Lee’s previously quite ambitious price predictions. Lee had argued that the Ethereum price could increase by 8,000% in the long term, reaching $250,000 per token. However, current market conditions indicate that these projections are far from being realized in the short term.
