BitMine Discloses 2.4 Million ETH, Prices $365 Million Stock Sale to Expand Treasury

A premium-priced deal supplies fresh capital for continued ETH accumulation toward a 5% supply goal.

Overview

  • BitMine reported holdings of 2,416,054 ETH—just over 2% of supply—plus 192 Bitcoin, $345 million in cash, and a $175 million stake in Eightco, totaling about $11.4 billion in crypto and cash assets.
  • The company added 264,378 ETH in the past week as it advances what it calls the “Alchemy of 5%” plan to own a significant share of Ethereum’s circulating supply.
  • BitMine entered a registered direct offering for 5,217,715 shares at $70 each with warrants for up to 10,435,430 shares at $87.50, targeting $365.24 million in gross proceeds and up to roughly $1.28 billion if warrants are exercised.
  • The warrants are immediately exercisable and expire on March 22, 2027, and the offering is expected to close on or about September 23 with Moelis & Company as placement agent.
  • Shares traded 5%–10% lower intraday following the disclosures, as BitMine’s status as the largest corporate holder of ETH and the second-largest overall crypto treasury drew intensified market attention.
