News Flash 2026-03-24 13:27

Tom Lee, Chairman of Bitmine Immersion Technologies, announced that the 'mini crypto winter' impacting Ethereum (ETH) is subsiding. Over the past three weeks, Bitmine has maintained a robust buying pace, acquiring an additional 65,341 ETH valued at approximately $139 million. This brings Bitmine's total ETH holdings to over 4.6 million, representing about 3.86% of the total circulating supply. Lee highlighted the progress of the CLARITY bill in Congress and the crypto market's stability amid geopolitical tensions in Iran as positive indicators. Since the onset of the Iran conflict, ETH has risen 18%, significantly outperforming the stock market by 2450 basis points, while gold has declined over 15% in the same period. Bitmine aims to reach a 5% target of ETH holdings, requiring the acquisition of approximately 1.4 million more ETH, costing around $2.9 billion at current prices. The company also holds $1.1 billion in cash, 196 BTC, and significant investments in Beast Industries and Eightco Holdings.
