LAS VEGAS, March 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — (NYSE AMERICAN: BMNR) Bitmine Immersion Technologies, Inc. (“Bitmine” or the “Company”), a Bitcoin and Ethereum Network company focused on accumulating cryptocurrencies for long-term investments, today announced Bitmine cryptocurrency holdings + total cash + “moonshots” totaling $9.9 billion.
As of March 1, 2026 at 2:00 pm ET, the Company’s cryptocurrency holdings are comprised of 4,473,587 ETH at $1,976 per ETH (NASDAQ: COIN), 195 Bitcoin (BTC), a $200 million stake in Beast Industries, a $14 million stake in Eightco Holdings (NASDAQ: ORBS) (“moonshots”) and total cash of $868 million. Bitmine’s ETH holdings represent 3.71% of the ETH supply (of 120.7 million ETH).
“Bitmine continues to methodically execute our Ethereum treasury strategy as we move into the latter stages of this ‘mini crypto winter’. Geopolitical uncertainty has increased in recent days as the United States began combat operations against Iran, and the impact on the financial and digital asset markets will be felt in the coming weeks. We continue to steadily acquire ETH and optimize the performance of our ETH holdings,” said Thomas “Tom” Lee, President of Bitmine.
“Last week, we acquired 50,928 ETH,” Lee continued. “Bitmine has been buying Ethereum as we view this pullback as attractive given the strengthening fundamentals. In our view, the ETH price does not reflect the high utility of ETH and its role as the future of finance.”
As of March 1, 2026, Bitmine’s total staked ETH stands at 3,040,483 ($6 billion at $1,976 per ETH). “Bitmine has staked more ETH than other entities in the world. At scale (when MAVAN and its partners fully stake Bitmine’s ETH), the ETH staking rewards are $253 million annually (using a 7-day BMNR yield of 2.86%),” Lee said.
“Annualized staking revenue is now $172 million. And these 3.0 million ETH are approximately 68% of the 4.5 million ETH held by Bitmine. The CESR (Composite Ethereum Staking Rate, managed by Quatrefoil) is 2.83%, while Bitmine’s own staking trades generated a 7-day return of 2.86% (annualized). We continue to advance our engagement solution known as The Made in America VAlidator Network (MAVAN). “This will be a ‘best-in-class’ solution offering secure staking infrastructure and will be deployed in early 2026. Bitmine is currently working with three staking providers as the Company moves towards the introduction of MAVAN in 2026,” Lee continued.
Cryptocurrency holding Bitmine reigns as the number one Ethereum treasury and the number two treasury globally, behind Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR), which holds 717,722 BTC valued at $47 billion. Bitmine remains the largest ETH treasury in the world.
Bitmine is one of the most traded stocks in the United States. According to Fundstrat data, the stock has traded average daily dollar volume of $0.8 billion (5-day average, as of February 27, 2026), ranking 145th in the US, behind Datadog (144th) and ahead of Expedia Group (146th) among 5,704 US-listed stocks (statistics.com and Fundstrat research).
The GENIUS Act and the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) Project Crypto are as transformative for financial services in 2025 as the United States’ action on August 15, 1971 that ended Bretton Woods and the USD on the gold standard 54 years ago. This 1971 event was the catalyst for the modernization of Wall Street, creating the iconic titans of Wall Street and today’s financial and payment avenues. These turned out to be better investments than gold.
