"BitMine has also said it is pursuing its 'Alchemy of 5%' target of eventually holding 5% of Ethereum's supply. That remains a company goal rather than a guaranteed outcome. Its Aug. 10 disclosure put the company at what it described as 96% of the way toward that target."
"Tom Lee reiterated that the company still expects to own 5% of the total ETH supply before the end of the year, extending an accumulation strategy it has maintained throughout 2026."

"BitMine added $49 million worth of Ethereum in the last week, bumping its total holdings to nearly 4.8% of the circulating token supply."
"BitMine's buying pace, staking choices, financing route, and eventual selling discipline now shape how ETH demand shows up across crypto markets and listed equities. That turns the company from a passive holder into a major economic participant in Ethereum's validator economy."

"While this move has further expanded the Ethereum treasury, it highlights BitMine's commitment to its aggressive Ethereum accumulation strategy which has persisted regardless of the market condition."
