Bitmine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) Announces ETH Holdings Reach 5.79 Million Tokens, and Total Crypto and Total Cash Holdings of $11.8 Billion

As of July 26, 2026 at 7:00pm ET, the Company's crypto holdings are comprised of 5,787,414 ETH at $1,948 per ETH (per Coinbase NASDAQ: COIN), 208 Bitcoin (BTC), $180 million stake in Beast Industries, $61 million stake in Eightco Holdings (NASDAQ: ORBS) ("moonshots") and total cash & marketable securities of $268 million. Bitmine's ETH holdings are 4.8% of the ETH supply (of 120.7 million ETH).

"Bitmine repurchased 6.1 million shares of common stock in the past week, an increase from the 5.5 million purchased the week prior. We increased our equity buyback as we view the rising ETH/BTC ratio, despite the falling odds of passage of the Clarity Act in 2026, as a sign crypto prices are strengthening. In fact, this ratio is now at a 3-month high at 0.3000, which we believe bodes well for future strengthening of ETH prices," stated Thomas "Tom" Lee, Chairman of Bitmine.

"ETH prices are now reaching a 10-week high and as many technical strategists have highlighted, we believe the next key levels to clear are $2,000 and $2,500 for ETH. Our advisor, Tom DeMark of DeMark Analytics, sees these levels as near-term targets if the comparison of ETH to S&P 500 post-Oct 1987 continues to hold," continued Lee.

"With over 11 million shares of common stock repurchased, Bitmine has executed the largest ever common stock buyback for any ETH or Bitcoin Digital Asset Treasury," stated Lee. Since July 1, 2026, Bitmine has repurchased 11.6 million shares of common stock under the previously authorized $4 billion share repurchase program.

"Over the past week, we acquired 9,946 ETH. Bitmine has bought ETH every week since the inception of the ETH Treasury Strategy on June 30, 2025," stated Lee.

On July 16, 2026, Bitmine released the latest Chairman's Message (link here) for July 2026. The title of the Message is "ETH is the cure for the Uncanny Valley of Wealth."

Earlier in 2026, Bitmine launched MAVAN (the Made in American VAlidator Network), the institutional grade staking platform. While MAVAN was originally developed to support Bitmine's own Ethereum treasury, MAVAN intends to expand to serve institutional investors, custodians, and ecosystem partners seeking best-in-class staking infrastructure. A portion of Bitmine's ETH is already staked on the MAVAN platform.

As of July 26, 2026, Bitmine total staked ETH stands at 4,917,189 ($9.6 billion at $1,948 per ETH). "Bitmine has staked more ETH than other entities in the world. At scale (when Bitmine's ETH is fully staked by MAVAN and its staking partners), the projected ETH staking reward is $299 million on an annualized basis (using 2.65% 7-day BMNR yield)," stated Lee.

"Annualized staking revenues are now projected at $254 million. And this 4.9 million ETH is 85% of the 5.79 million ETH held by Bitmine. Bitmine's own staking operations generated a 7-day yield of 2.65% (annualized)," continued Lee.

Bitmine's crypto holdings reign as the #1 Ethereum treasury and #2 global treasury, behind Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR), which reportedly owns 843,775 BTC valued at approximately $59 billion. Bitmine remains the largest ETH treasury in the world. 

Bitmine is one of the most widely traded stocks in the US. According to data from Fundstrat, the stock has traded average daily dollar volume of $597 million (5-day average, as of July 24, 2026), ranking #171 in the US, behind Hewlett Packard Enterprise (rank #170) and ahead of HCA Healthcare (rank #172) among 5,704 US-listed stocks (statista.com and Fundstrat research).

Bitmine management believes the GENIUS Act and Securities and Exchange Commission's (the "SEC") Project Crypto are as transformational to financial services in 2025 as US action on August 15, 1971 ending 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 Wall Street titans and financial and payment rails of today. These proved to be better investments than gold.
