Bitmine has said it wants to own 5% of Ethereum’s circulating supply over time. After the latest buy, it remained just below that level at 3.98%. The company did not give a fresh weekly target.
The stock market reacted after the update. Yahoo Finance data showed BMNR reached about $20.60 after the open. Even so, the shares remain down 23% this year, although they are up about 187% over 12 months.
NYSE uplisting adds a new step for BMNR shares
Bitmine said BMNR will stop trading on its current junior exchange after the close on April 8. The stock will begin trading on the NYSE the next morning. The ticker symbol will remain BMNR.
The move places Bitmine on a larger US exchange as it expands its Ethereum treasury. That change may widen access for more market participants. It also comes as BMNR trading activity remains strong.
Fundstrat said BMNR ranked among the most actively traded US stocks during the four sessions through April 2. It reported average daily dollar volume of about $987 million. According to Fundstrat, that placed BMNR near Schlumberger and Adobe in trading activity.
Staking business grows beside the treasury and listing move
Bitmine said 3.334 million ETH is now staked through its validator setup. The company valued that staked amount at about $7.1 billion. It said the total equals about 69% of its Ethereum treasury.
The staking work runs through MAVAN, Bitmine’s Made in America VAlidator Network. The company said it built MAVAN to support its own treasury first. It also said the platform may later serve outside institutions and partners.
Lee said, “Bitmine has staked more ETH than other entities in the world.” Bitmine linked that scale to its plan for custodians, partners, and larger investors. The company also reported 198 BTC and $864 million in cash.
