("Bitmine" or the "Company") a Bitcoin and Ethereum Network company with a focus on the accumulation of crypto for long term investment, today announced Bitmine crypto_ + total cash & marketable securities + "moonshots" _holdings totaling $17.1 billion. [⌊Bitmine Weekly Update⌉⌊Bitmine Weekly Update⌉[ Bitmine Weekly Update As of September 20, 2026 at 9:00pm ET, the Company’s crypto holdings are comprised of 5,983,940 ETH at $2,688 per ETH (per Coinbase), 212 Bitcoin (BTC), $180 million stake in Beast Industries, $105 million stake in Eightco Holdings (NASDAQ: ORBS)(" moonshots") and total cash & marketable securities of $714 million. Bitmine’s ETH holdings are 4.9% of the ETH supply (of 122.1 million ETH). "We believe a crypto bull market is underway, having started in late June, driven by a multitude of factors including the rotation from AI back to crypto, strengthening crypto fundamentals centered around both tokenization and AI and lastly, the ending of the 4-year cycle. With only little more than a week left in calendar third quarter( 3Q26), the outperformance of Ethereum as a macro asset continues to strengthen. Quarter to date, ETH is outperforming by 6,519bp, dwarfing other macro assets," stated Thomas "Tom" Lee, Chairman of Bitmine. "To us, this massive outperformance of ETH in 3Q26 is viewed as a prelude to a potentially stronger up move in the 4th quarter of 2026. Given institutions have underweighted crypto in 2026, partially due to the outperformance of AI stocks in early 2026, we expect institutions to substantially increase their exposure in the final 3 months of 2026. We believe this could add meaningful upside to the gains seen since June 30th," continued Lee. Tom Lee will also deliver the keynote at Korea Blockchain Week 2026 on September 30 at 11:20 a.m. at Walkerhill Hotels & Resorts in Seoul. The 25-minute keynote is part of Korea Blockchain Week, one of Asia’s leading blockchain and digital asset conferences. Additional information is available on the [Korea Blockchain Week website](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4778532-1&h=2961388571&u=https%3A%2F%2Fkoreablockchainweek.com%2F&a=Korea+Blockchain+Week+website). "Over the past week, we acquired 27,562 ETH. Bitmine’s track record of consistent buying of crypto is unmatched by any public company in the world. Bitmine has bought ETH each and every week since the inception of its ETH Treasury Strategy on June 30, 2025," stated Lee. On July 16, 2026, Bitmine released the latest Chairman’s Message ([link here](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4778532-1&h=3507109382&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bitminetech.io%2Fchairmans-message&a=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 America VAlidator Network), the institutional-grade staking platform. While MAVAN was originally developed to support Bitmine’s own Ethereum treasury, MAVAN has expanded 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 September 20, 2026, Bitmine total staked ETH stands at 5,067,309 ($13.6 billion at $2,688 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 would be $421 million on an annualized basis (using 2.62% 7-day BMNR yield)," stated Lee. "Annualized staking revenues are now projected at $357 million. And this 5.1 million ETH is 85% of the 5.98 million ETH held by Bitmine. Bitmine’s own staking operations generated a 7-day yield of 2.62% (annualized)," continued Lee. 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 $1.2 billion (5-day average, as of September 18, 2026), ranking #100 in the US, behind Eaton Corp (rank# 99) and ahead of Ciena Corp (rank #101) among 5,704 US-listed stocks ([statista.com](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4778532-1&h=2919591270&u=http%3A%2F%2Fstatista.com%2F&a=statista.com) and Fundstrat research). Bitmine’s crypto holdings reign as the #1 Ethereum treasury and #2 global treasury, behind Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR), which reportedly owns 845,080 BTC valued at approximately $75 billion. Bitmine remains the largest ETH treasury in the world. Bitmine management believes the GENIUS Act and the Securities and Exchange Commission’s( SEC) Project Crypto are as transformational to financial services in 2026 as the US action on August 15, 1971, which ended the Bretton Woods system and took the U.S. dollar off the gold standard 55 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.
