BitMine Immersion Technologies, the largest public Ethereum holder, is drawing renewed attention in the crypto market. In the latest BitMine news revealed today, the company acquired more than 60,000 Ethereum tokens. This brings its total ETH holdings to over $10 billion.

Despite the company’s continuous Ether buys and efforts to strengthen its Ethereum treasury, the BMNR stock is struggling to maintain momentum. Now, investors are closely watching to see if the latest BitMine news could push the shares higher.

BitMine News: Ethereum Holdings Surge to 4.5M

According to today’s press release, the Ethereum treasury company, BitMine, has further bolstered its Ethereum holdings. The company has bought about 60,976 ETH, valued at around $120 million.

Following this latest BitMine news, the company’s total Ether holdings have surged to 4.5 million. CEO Tom Lee stated:

“As the adage goes, nobody ‘rings the bell at the bottom’ and therefore Bitmine’s strategy is to now slightly increase its pace of ETH accumulation. In the past week, we acquired 60,976 ETH compared to an average of 45k to 50k weekly recently.”

The company also revealed its total holdings, including cash and crypto. As of March 8, BitMine holds 4,534,563 ETH valued at $1,965 per token, along with 195 Bitcoin.

The firm also holds a $200 million stake in Beast Industries, a $14 million investment in Eightco Holdings, and $1.2 billion in cash. In total, the Ethereum treasury company boasts $10.3 billion in holdings.

Ethereum Price Holds Firm Amid BitMine Purchase

Significantly, the BitMine news of Ethereum purchase happens amid the token’s notable resilience in the volatile crypto market. Over the past few days, the market has been under increased pressure, especially due to the prevailing geopolitical issues.

As the US and Iran showed no signs of ending the war previously, crypto prices, including ETH, experienced notable drops.

However, as the tensions are easing, the crypto market is facing renewed optimism. Tokens, including Ether, are showing remarkable gains after days of volatility.

The Ethereum token, which had previously failed to hold the critical $2k threshold, is now trading at $2,002. This price sees a 3.3% daily gain, 3.13% weekly hike, but a 2% monthly plummet.

BMNR Stock Price Rebounds

Despite the increased efforts of BitMine, the BMNR stock price has been failing to sustain momentum.

However, the latest BitMine news has sparked a major uptrend. The BMNR stock price has shown signs of recovery in early trading.

The shares were trading at $19.73, gaining 4.5% as of press time. Although the stocks plunged by 3.3% over the past five days, the latest uptick suggests renewed investor interest as the company expands its Ethereum holdings and strengthens its crypto treasury strategy.

BitMine News: Nearing 5% ETH Supply Goal

As mentioned above, BitMine currently holds more than 4.5 million Ethereum tokens. This constitutes about 3.76% of the total Ethereum supply of 120.7 million tokens.

Notably, the company envisions holding at least 5% of the total circulating supply of ETH. The company continues to purchase more tokens to attain this vision.

It is worth noting that this latest news brings BitMine closer to its 5% goal.
