by

Darling Highlights, If You Will: 🌟

  • Bitmine, ever the darling of daring investments, has staked another $352M in ETH, bringing their total to a staggering 461,000 ETH. Market prices? Mere trifles. 💎✨
  • Their Ethereum treasury now sits at 4.07M ETH ($12B), making them the grande dame of corporate ETH holders. Bow down, darlings. 👑
  • Amidst the year-end market tantrums, Bitmine persists in its aggressive accumulation. Long-term strategy? Absolutely. Short-term sanity? Questionable. 🤔💼

Ah, Bitmine Immersion Technologies, the darling of the crypto world, has once again flexed its financial muscles by expanding its Ethereum staking to a cool $1.37 billion. On December 31, no less-what a way to ring in the new year! 🥂🎉 The additional $352 million worth of Ether staking underscores their unshakable faith in Ethereum, even as the crypto market throws its annual hissy fit at year’s end. 2025, you’ve been a trial, darling.

On-chain data, courtesy of the ever-watchful OnChain Lens, reveals Bitmine staking 118,944 ETH, valued at a mere $352.16 million. Post-transaction, their total staked Ether climbed to 461,504 ETH, worth roughly $1.37 billion. One can only imagine the clinking of champagne flutes at Bitmine HQ. 🍾✨

This staking spree suggests Bitmine is playing the long game, darling, not chasing those fleeting short-term profits. How très chic. 🕶️💼

Onchain Labs, never one to miss a beat, flagged a newly created wallet that received 32,938 ETH from FalconX. On-chain activity strongly hints that this wallet is Bitmine’s latest accessory, further cementing their expansionist ethos. Rearranging resources? Not their style, darling. 👜✨

The Accumulation Saga Continues

December has been a whirlwind for Bitmine. In the past week alone, they accumulated over 44,000 ETH, and earlier in the month, they executed several jaw-dropping purchases, including a single-day buy of 67,886 ETH worth $201 million on December 24. One can only imagine the Christmas bonuses. 🎄💸

Additional transactions of $88 million and $97.6 million further padded their treasury. According to Strategic ETH Reserve, Bitmine’s total Ether holdings now stand at 4.07 million ETH, valued at a jaw-dropping $12 billion. Bravo, darlings, bravo. 👏💰

At the time of writing, Ethereum (ETH) was trading at $2,972.82, with a 24-hour trading volume of $17.94 billion. Ethereum’s market value? A modest $358.8 billion, according to CoinMarketCap. Humble, as always. 📉📈

A Strategic Pivot, Darling

Bitmine Immersion Technologies Inc. (NYSE: BMNR), helmed by the inimitable Tom Lee of Fundstrat fame, has undergone quite the metamorphosis in 2025. Once a mere Bitcoin mining hardware provider, they’ve reinvented themselves as a digital asset titan, with Ethereum at the heart of their treasury strategy. How très moderne. 🦄🚀

By current estimates, Bitmine boasts the largest known corporate ETH treasury and ranks second globally among crypto treasuries, just behind Strategy’s Bitcoin holdings. Their ambition? To own nearly 5% of Ethereum’s circulating supply. Darling, that’s not just a strategy-it’s a statement. 💍✨

With average ETH entry prices of $3,960, Bitmine is sitting on billions in unrealized losses amidst the current market slump. Yet, they persist in accumulating during price weakness. Mad? Perhaps. Brilliant? Undoubtedly. 🧠💎

Tom Lee, ever the market sage, attributes the recent weakness to year-end tax-loss selling in the U.S. and reduced institutional participation during the holidays. Darling, even the crypto world needs a Christmas break. 🎄📉

Chairman Thomas “Tom” Lee states:

“Market activity tends to slow as we enter the final holiday weeks of a calendar year. Bitmine added 44,463 ETH in the past week, as we continue to be the largest ‘fresh money’ buyer of ETH in the World.”

“Year-end tax-loss related selling…

What’s Next, Darlings?

Looking ahead, Bitmine plans to unveil its Made in America Validator Network (MAVAN) in Q1 2026, running Ethereum validators based in the U.S. How patriotic. 🇺🇸🚀

Their next shareholder meeting is set for January 15, 2026, in Las Vegas. Expect more glittering details on their Ethereum treasury strategy. Darling, it’s going to be fabulous. 🎰✨

As Ethereum trades below its previous highs, Bitmine’s actions speak volumes: consistent accumulation and staking in the face of market consolidation. Withdrawal? Not in their vocabulary, darling. 💃💎
