THIS IS GETTING OUT OF HAND 🏦
BREAKING: Largest Ethereum treasury firm BitMine adds 317,000 ETH to push holdings worth nearly $4.9 billion

The Ethereum treasury game is going parabolic.
BitMine Immersion - already the world’s biggest ETH hoarder - just blew past the 1 million ETH milestone.
It now holds 1.15M ETH worth nearly $4.9B.
That’s 317,000 ETH added in a single week. 🤯
A buying binge that cements its lead and keeps it on track for a wild target: 5% of all ETH in existence - about $25B at today’s prices.
And the market’s taking notice.
BitMine’s stock (BMNR) is now one of the 25 most-traded U.S. companies, moving $2.2B a day in volume. Shares are up 637% year-to-date.

And BitMine’s not alone.
SharpLink Gaming (SBET) just pulled in $400M to boost its stash past $3B.
That’s on top of $900M raised last week. It now holds 598,800 ETH - worth over $2.5B - and is chasing its own 1% supply goal.
Add in players like Bit Digital, and publicly traded ETH treasuries now control several billion dollars worth of ETH.
Standard Chartered says that could soon hit 10% of all ETH in circulation.

The Top Ethereum Holders
The Bottom line:
The “Ethereum MicroStrategy” era is here.
Corporate treasuries are stacking billions, supply is tightening, and if this pace continues… $4,200 is likely just the warm-up. 🔥

ETHEREUM TIDAL WAVE 🌊
In case that didn’t get you excited for the near future of Ethereum, let’s get you even more fired up.
An institutional tidal wave is coming for ETH. 100% certainty.
The latest prediction from our favourite chart analyst, Pentoshi?
We’re only 13% from Ethereum all-time highs.
As soon as it breaks that? It’s game on.
Billions are coming. 🌊

If you’re new here, Pentoshi is a pseudonymous macro + technical analyst who’s nailed major market moves since the 2020 bull run.
He doesn’t post speculation, just high-conviction calls backed by data.
And the wild part? He’s usually right.
Here’s what he tweeted today:
He then followed up:
Sharplink is the second-largest Ethereum treasury company, right behind Tom Lee’s.
They already own 600,000 ETH… and they just announced they’ve locked in funding to buy at least $600M more this week.

SharpLink announcement
Ryan from Bankless summed up the current Ethereum situation perfectly:

“You can buy ETH below ATH before this tidal wave hits, but not for long and you have to decide.”
A tidal wave of institutional money is coming.
Not “maybe” - they’re literally telling us.
Just like when they were telling us when the Bitcoin ETFs were approved - and BTC was only around $20,000…
Tomorrow we’re dropping a full YouTube breakdown on how ETH could realistically hit $30,000+.
That’s not a prediction from us, but straight from Tom Lee himself.
Get ready.

AND WE’RE BACK 📈
Inflows are back…
Digital asset funds snapped back into positive territory last week, pulling in $578 million.
Let’s break it down.

Ethereum led the charge with $269.8M in inflows - the biggest of any asset.
That pushed its year-to-date total to a record $8.23B, while recent price gains sent ETH’s total AUM to an all-time high of $32.6B.
Bitcoin also bounced back after two straight weeks of outflows, pulling in $260M.
Solana and XRP followed with $21.6M and $18.4M respectively.

Regionally, the U.S. dominated with $608M in inflows.
Canada, Australia, and Hong Kong followed with inflows of $16.5m, $7.9m, and $1.4m respectively.
Whilst Germany, Sweden and Brazil experienced outflows of $33.5m, $16.5m and $2.5m respectively.

The week actually started ugly - with $1B in outflows, likely tied to weak U.S. payroll figures.
But momentum flipped hard midweek.
Inflows surged to $1.57B in the back half - a move CoinShares links to the U.S. government’s announcement allowing digital assets in 401(k) retirement plans.
From red to record-breaking - all in a matter of days. 🚀

Trivia Answer: 97% 🥳
Due to Bitcoin’s halving schedule, about 97% of the total 21 million BTC will be mined by 2030 — but the last fraction won’t be mined until around the year 2140. ⛏️⏳
