Compared with the previous week, Ethereum holdings increased from 5.42 million ETH to 5.54 million ETH following the acquisition of 126,971 ETH. The purchase was nearly five times larger than the prior week’s acquisition of 26,497 ETH and marked the strongest weekly accumulation since the company began aggressively expanding its Ethereum treasury.

Total ETH holdings increased by approximately 2.3% week-over-week, while Bitmine’s share of Ethereum’s circulating supply rose from roughly 4.49% to 4.59%.

Staking Operations Continue to Expand

Of Bitmine’s total Ethereum holdings, 4,718,677 ETH are currently staked, representing approximately 85% of the company’s ETH treasury. At current market prices, the staked assets are valued at approximately $7.7 billion.

According to the company, its staking operations generated a 7-day annualized yield of 2.99%. Based on current staking levels, Bitmine projects annualized staking revenue of approximately $230 million.

The company said a growing portion of its staking activity is being conducted through MAVAN (Made in America VAlidator Network), Bitmine’s institutional-grade Ethereum staking platform. Management stated that MAVAN was initially developed to support the company’s treasury operations but may eventually expand to serve institutional investors and ecosystem partners.

Bitmine reported that more than 4.7 million ETH are currently staked through its infrastructure and partner networks, making it one of the largest staking operators within the Ethereum ecosystem.

Ethereum Accumulation Accelerates

The latest purchase continues a multi-month trend of aggressive Ethereum accumulation.

Recent weekly acquisitions include:

  • June 8, 2026: 126,971 ETH
  • June 1, 2026: 26,947 ETH
  • May 26, 2026: 111,942 ETH
  • May 18, 2026: 71,672 ETH
  • May 11, 2026: 26,659 ETH

The company has added more than one million ETH since the beginning of 2026, significantly increasing its ownership stake within the Ethereum network. Management attributed the recent increase in purchases to what it views as a disconnect between Ethereum’s market price and underlying network fundamentals.

Potential Russell 1000 Inclusion Draws Attention

Bitmine also noted that it currently meets eligibility requirements for inclusion in the Russell 1000 Index, with the final constituent list expected later this month.

The company highlighted that BMNR remains among the most actively traded equities in the United States. According to Fundstrat data cited by Bitmine, the stock generated average daily trading volume of approximately $829 million over the five trading sessions ending June 5, ranking 148th among more than 5,700 U.S.-listed stocks.

Potential inclusion in the Russell 1000 could increase institutional ownership, as many index funds and benchmark-tracking portfolios allocate capital to constituents of the index.

Ethereum Market Context

Ethereum experienced a broad market pullback during the past week, with ETH trading near $1,630 at the time of Bitmine’s disclosure. Despite the decline, institutional participation in the Ethereum ecosystem remains a key theme for investors.

The network continues to benefit from growing tokenization initiatives, expanding staking participation, and increasing interest from traditional financial institutions exploring blockchain-based settlement systems. Corporate treasury accumulation has also emerged as a notable trend, with Bitmine remaining the most aggressive public-market participant focused on Ethereum acquisition and staking strategies.
