NORWALK, Conn. , May 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- (NYSE: BMNR) Bitmine Immersion Technologies, Inc. ("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 + "moonshots" holdings totaling $13.4 billion.

The Company recently announced its uplisting to the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") from the NYSE American on April 9, 2026. The Company's common stock continues to trade under the symbol "BMNR".

As of May 10, 2026 at 4:00pm ET, the Company's crypto holdings are comprised of 5,206,790 ETH at $2,366 per ETH (Coinbase NASDAQ: COIN), 201 Bitcoin (BTC), $200 million stake in Beast Industries, $88 million stake in Eightco Holdings (NASDAQ: ORBS) ("moonshots") and total cash of $775 million. Bitmine's ETH holdings are 4.31% of the ETH supply (of 120.7 million ETH).

Bitmine released the latest Chairman's Message (link here) for May 2026.

"'Crypto spring' has commenced and we wanted to highlight the importance of owning ETH as a source of diversification, and the likely drivers of this coming 'crypto bull' cycle," stated Thomas "Tom" Lee, Chairman of Bitmine. "Among the key future drivers for Ethereum, the two primary are Wall Street's move to tokenization and agentic AI. If ETH closes above $2,100 at the end of May 2026, this would be the third consecutive monthly gain – this has never been seen in a crypto bear market. Thus, a close above $2,100 would validate 'crypto spring' has arrived."

"Since the start of 2026, Bitmine has acquired over 1 million ETH and has accumulated over 4.3% of the ETH supply.  We intend to hold and stake our ETH holdings, which means our ETH holdings are essentially reducing available supply of ETH and removed 4.3% of ETH supply since June 30th, 2025. In other words, ETH supply has been disinflationary since June 2025." stated Lee.

"We have decided to slow down our pace of weekly accumulation from >100,000 per week as we originally targeted reaching the 'alchemy of 5%' target in late 2026. Our previous pace of >100k weekly buys would have us reach 5% by mid-July." stated Lee.

"ETH prices have been correlated with software stocks (software ETF ticker: $IGV) and as shown on the chart below, both have been moving higher together in the past few months.  The recovery in software in 2026 is further evidence 'crypto spring' has commenced," said Lee.

Bitmine recently 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 May 10, 2026, Bitmine total staked ETH stands at 4,712,917 ($11.1 billion at $2,366 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 $352 million annually (using 2.86% 7-day BMNR yield)," stated Lee.

"Annualized staking revenues are now $319 million. And this 4.7 million ETH is over 90% of the 5.21 million ETH held by Bitmine. Bitmine's own staking operations generated a 7-day yield of 2.86% (annualized)," continued Lee.

Bitmine crypto holding reigns as the #1 Ethereum treasury and #2 global treasury, behind Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR), which reportedly owns 818,334 BTC valued at $66.6 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 $816 million (5-day average, as of May 8, 2026), ranking #149 in the US, behind Carvana Co (rank #148) and ahead of Royal Caribbean Cruises (rank #150) among 5,704 US-listed stocks (statista.com and Fundstrat research).

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.
