BitMine Fuels Ethereum Price Rally with Fresh ETH Purchase
BitMine, a company known for its large Ethereum holdings, has made another significant purchase of 10,399 ETH. This latest acquisition brings BitMine's total holdings close to 5.8 million Ethereum, with approximately 85% staked and earning staking rewards.
The company now owns about 4.8% of Ethereum's total supply, and needs only another 237,187 ETH to reach its goal of holding 5% of all Ethereum in circulation. BitMine expects its staked ETH to bring in around $291 million in annual staking rewards.
BlackRock has also entered the Ethereum market by launching two tokenized money market funds on the network. These funds invest in cash, short-term US Treasury securities, and overnight repurchase agreements backed by Treasuries.
Ethereum price remains above $1,850, with some market commentators predicting a potential move to $2,000 if the current support level holds.
