Corporate ETH Treasury Skyrockets 700% in Just 16 Days—Largest in the World!

Hold onto your ledgers—the world's biggest corporate Ethereum stash just went parabolic.

From zero to crypto hero

Some CFOs play it safe with bonds and blue chips. Not this crew—their ETH war chest ballooned sevenfold before the ink dried on last quarter's earnings report. Guess those 'conservative treasury management' seminars can wait.

Timing is everything (except when it's not)

While traditional finance was busy rebalancing index funds, these degens turned 16 days into a masterclass in asymmetric bets. The move either proves corporate crypto adoption is accelerating... or that someone's chasing the 2021 playbook.

Either way, the suits are officially out-risking your DeFi yield farmer uncle—with better healthcare plans.

Key takeaways

BitMine Immersion Technologies has become the largest corporate holder of Ethereum, with over $2.1 billion in ETH – Just 16 days after a $250 million raise. Fresh wallets have mirrored this accumulation trend, adding nearly $2 billion in ETH. Despite the surge in institutional interest though, Ethereum’s price may be showing signs of cooling off.

Ethereum’s [ETH] corporate investor landscape has just had a major development.

BitMine Immersion Technologies [BNMR] has quietly amassed $2.1 billion worth of ETH. In fact, it is now the largest known ethereum treasury held by a public company.

However, the firm isn’t stopping just there.

With plans to raise another $2.5 billion to stake even more, BitMine is gunning for control of 5% of ETH’s total supply. As whale wallets begin making their moves, is this the beginning of Ethereum’s next institutional era?

ETH treasury increased by 700% in just 16 days!

BitMine Immersion Technologies recently announced that its Ethereum holdings surged past $2 billion – Up more than 700% from its initial $250 million private placement completed just over two weeks ago.

The company now holds 566,776 ETH, acquired at an average price of $3,643.752 per token. Thomas Lee of Fundstrat, who serves as Chairman of BitMine’s Board of Directors, has laid out the aspirations too. The firm’s long-term goal is to accumulate and stake 5% of Ethereum’s total supply.

CEO Jonathan Bates echoed this commitment, pointing to Ethereum as a central pillar of the firm’s treasury strategy. He added,

“We are committed to Ethereum’s continued growth and look forward to advancing our Ethereum treasury strategy.”

Fresh wallets mirror the accumulation

According to LookonChain, eight freshly funded wallets have collectively accumulated 540,460 ETH, worth approximately $1.99 billion since 09 July.

In the last 10 hours alone, three of those wallets added another 74,207 ETH ($273 million), continuing the rapid accumulation trend.

These wallets have no prior transaction history, suggesting coordinated institutional or high-net-worth entrants.

The timing seemed to align closely with BitMine’s ETH strategy. Perhaps, similar players are moving behind the scenes. Together, they may be laying the groundwork for a new era of concentrated ETH ownership.

Cooling momentum? ETH stumbles despite whale demand

At press time, ETH was trading at $3,626, down 2.21% on the day despite strong whale accumulation trends.

The RSI hovered at 72.15, indicating overbought conditions that may have preceded the recent pullback. The MACD still was in bullish territory, but the narrowing gap between the MACD and Signal lines hinted at weakening momentum across the board.

Trading volumes also fell over the past few sessions – A sign of buyer fatigue after ETH’s steep rally earlier this month.

If this cooldown continues, ETH may enter a consolidation phase… Unless new catalysts or sustained institutional buying inject fresh momentum into the market.
