๐ Bitmine is doubling down on Ethereum.
Bitmine Immersion Technologies now holds 5.67M ETH, 205 BTC, and $601M in cash and securities, bringing total assets to approximately $10.7B.
Key highlights:
๐น Added 52,203 ETH in the past week
๐น Controls ~4.7% of Ethereum's total supply
๐น Holds the largest known corporate ETH treasury
๐น 83% of ETH holdings are staked (4.72M ETH)
๐น Estimated annual staking revenue: ~$223M
Chairman Tom Lee says Bitmine will continue accumulating ETH through 2026, citing a long-term "Crypto Spring" driven by tokenization and AI-powered blockchain demand.
Ethereum treasury competition is heating up.
๐ Strategy keeps buying Bitcoin โ even as critics question the model.
Strategy acquired another 520 BTC for $34.9M last week, bringing total holdings to 847,363 BTC worth roughly $54.8B.
That stash now represents more than 4% of Bitcoinโs total 21 million supply.
Despite concerns over debt, preferred stock performance, and recent market volatility, the company still maintains a $1.4B cash reserve and continues funding purchases through equity offerings.
Michael Saylor's message remains unchanged: accumulate more Bitcoin.
The bigger question is whether Strategy's aggressive treasury strategy will continue to outperform as competition among corporate Bitcoin holders intensifies.

๐จ A wallet tied to the infamous HashFlare fraud just woke up after 3.5 years.
Blockchain investigator ZachXBT reports that a wallet linked to the $575M HashFlare investment scam moved 10,600 ETH (~$18.5M) after years of inactivity.
The funds were reportedly bridged from Ethereum to Bitcoin via HiFiSwap and NEAR Intents, before being routed through instant swap services in an apparent laundering attempt.
The development comes months after HashFlare co-founders Sergei Potapenko and Ivan Turรตgin pleaded guilty and agreed to forfeit $450M in assets to the U.S. government.
Dormant wallets are waking upโand on-chain investigators are watching closely.
๐ต๐ญ $DASH is exploring the Philippines as a potential market for crypto payments.
Speaking at Philippine Blockchain Week 2026, Dash's Head of Global Adoption, Daria Chernozub, said the project is targeting emerging markets where users face high fees and need simpler payment solutions.
Dash is currently assessing the local market and prioritizing regulatory compliance before moving forward. The team has already engaged with key stakeholders and prepared legal opinions.
Industry experts noted that while the Philippines offers strong growth potentialโwith a young, mobile-first, English-speaking populationโcrypto firms must navigate a demanding licensing and compliance process.
Could the Philippines become Dash's next adoption hub? ๐

This marks the second-largest BTC inflow to Binance on record, trailing only February's surge of over 100,000 $BTC.
