The firm’s total staked Ether now stands at about 1.9 million ETH, valued at roughly $5.7 billion.
BitMine holds over 4 million ETH in total, representing approximately 3.5% of Ethereum’s circulating supply. The company has set a target of reaching 5% of the total supply.
The firm projects over $400 million in annual income from staking rewards on its ETH treasury, according to a January 2026 shareholder update from Lee.
BitMine pivoted from Bitcoin mining to an Ethereum-focused treasury model after Lee assumed chairmanship in June 2025. The company now ranks as the largest institutional Ethereum holder among publicly traded entities, with a market cap exceeding $13 billion.
