BitMine's Assets Reach $13.2 Billion: ETH Holdings Exceed 3.86 Million
The company's crypto assets, cash reserves, and investments in the “moonshot” category form the basis of this total value.
According to the statement, as of 4:00 PM on December 7, BitMine’s crypto portfolio consists of 3,864,951 units of Ethereum (ETH), 193 units of Bitcoin (BTC) and a $36 million share position in Eightco Holdings (ORBS), which is traded on Nasdaq.
The company's cash reserves are reportedly around $1 billion. Based on the current ETH price, BitMine's Ethereum holdings exceed 3.2% of the total supply. Company management states that they aim to increase this ratio to 5% as a medium-term target.
Chairman Thomas “Tom” Lee announced that they purchased 138,452 ETH last week. He emphasized that these purchases represent a 156% increase compared to the average weekly rate of 54,156 ETH four weeks prior.
This aggressive buying strategy demonstrates BitMine’s long-term confidence in the Ethereum ecosystem while strengthening the company’s claim to be one of the largest institutional accumulators of ETH in the industry.
