BitMine и Strategy: Новые горизонты корпоративного криптозолота Translated BitMine and Strategy: New Horizons in Corporate Crypto Treasury

The company Strategy has acquired 1,229 BTC for approximately $108.8 million, with an average purchasing price of about $88,568.

As of December 28, the owner of the largest corporate Bitcoin treasury has accumulated a balance of 675,497 BTC. Since August 2020, the firm founded by Michael Saylor has spent around $50.44 billion on cryptocurrency acquisitions.

On Monday, December 29, the price of digital gold briefly exceeded the $90,000 mark. By the time of writing, the rate had reverted to around $87,500, erasing the daily gain.

The current valuation of Strategy’s crypto reserves stands at approximately $58.8 billion.

BitMine reported the purchase of 44,463 ETH, bringing its total holdings to 4,110,525 ETH, which accounts for 3.41% of the overall market supply of the second-largest cryptocurrency. The average purchase price for the asset is $2,948 per coin.

BitMine leads in terms of corporate Ethereum treasury size, valued at around $11.9 billion, and ranks second in the cryptocurrency treasury segment, known as DAT, after Strategy.

In addition, the company holds 192 BTC, possesses a stake in Eightco Holdings estimated at $23 million, and maintains $1 billion in liquid assets.

BitMine is collaborating with three staking providers as it prepares to launch its own commercial network, MAVAN (Made in America Validator Network), in 2026.

According to the firm, the total amount of staked cryptocurrency has already reached 408,627 ETH (approximately $1.2 billion). BitMine’s Chairman, Tom Lee, noted that the fully deposited Ethereum reserve aimed at generating passive income could yield around $374 million annually at the current composite rate of 2.81%.

The queue for ETH staking has, for the first time since July, doubled the number of withdrawal requests. Some observers partially attribute this development to BitMine’s activities.

It’s worth recalling that in October, Lee commented on the «burst bubble» within the DAT segment. Experts predicted a significant crisis for companies holding cryptocurrencies on their balance sheets by 2026.
