- Bitmine increased its Ethereum holdings by 27,801 coins, achieving 96% of its 5% supply accumulation target.
- Tom Lee anticipates heightened Ethereum network activity due to Robinhood Chain’s adoption.
Bitmine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) added 27,801 ETH to its treasury, investing $50.6 million at $1,820 per ETH. This contrasts with Strategy’s recent Bitcoin purchase hiatus.
Bitmine’s Updated Ethereum Portfolio
The purchase brings BMNR’s total ETH holdings to 5,770,038 coins, securing 4.78% of Ethereum’s 120.68 million circulating supply. The company now stands 95.6% toward its “Alchemy of 5%” objective, aiming to convert ETH volatility into institutional-grade revenue.
Bitmine also stakes 85.22% of its ETH (4,917,189 coins) in MAVAN, projecting $242 million annual staking income at a 2.7% yield. Combined with 206 BTC, $180M in Beast Industries, and $482M in liquid reserves, BMNR diversifies its crypto portfolio.
Tom Lee Remains Ethereum Optimistic
Despite bearish market trends, Tom Lee maintains confidence in Ethereum. He highlights Robinhood Chain’s breakout success on Arbitrum, processing $3.1B in DEX volume within seven days—surpassing established DEXs and reinforcing ETH’s utility as Gas token.
Lee notes this L2 network’s fee structure, denominated in ETH, enhances transaction efficiency for its 27M users. Additionally, BMNR’s inclusion in the Russell 1000 Large-Cap Index may drive institutional adoption, indirectly boosting ETH exposure.

- CleanSpark Diversifies into High-Performance Computing with Massive $6.6 Billion Infrastructure Lease</TITLE]Nasdaq-listed bitcoin miner CleanSpark announced on July 14 that it has entered into a 20-year infrastructure lease with a high-investment-grade global technology firm at its Sandersville, Georgia campus. This strategic agreement represents a major pivot for the company, transitioning from a focus solely on bitcoin mining toward providing high-performance computing services for hyperscale clients. The lease secures data center infrastructure capable of supporting a 175-megawatt critical IT load. CleanSpark anticipates the initial contract will generate $6.6 billion in revenue, a figure that could escalate to $11.6 billion if the tenant utilizes both available extension options. This move aligns with the company’s broader strategy to repurpose electricity capacity and mining hardware to power AI-driven data centers, effectively diversifying its operational portfolio. Under the agreement, CleanSpark expects average annual net operating income to reach approximately $330 million, with the first deliveries scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2027. The partnership also includes a letter of intent and an exclusivity arrangement covering CleanSpark’s entire Texas portfolio, which includes up to 885 megawatts of secured and planned power capacity. If these negotiations transition into binding contracts, CleanSpark will significantly expand its role as an infrastructure provider for artificial intelligence and cloud computing workloads. CleanSpark holds 13,924 bitcoin The pivot comes amidst record-breaking performance in CleanSpark’s core mining operations. In early July, the company produced 614 bitcoin and reached a milestone operational hashrate of 50 exahashes per second. Its treasury holdings have grown to 13,924 bitcoin, establishing one of the largest corporate holdings among public miners. Rather than selling assets into the market, management continues to hold its bitcoin, signaling confidence in the asset’s long-term valuation. Financial analysts have reacted positively to the company’s shift toward compute services. Citizens initiated coverage with an “Outperform” rating and a $27 price target, noting the potential of the hyperscale compute capacity. Similarly, Chardan raised its price target from $16 to $19 while maintaining a “Buy” rating. Both firms highlighted the Sandersville lease as evidence of CleanSpark’s ability to monetize its power and land assets independently of the volatile margins associated with bitcoin mining and network difficulty. Market response has been varied; CleanSpark shares surged over 20% in pre-market trading following the announcement, though they later settled at a 9% gain for the day. The Georgia lease serves as a strategic hedge, providing a steady revenue stream from a creditworthy tenant that is decoupled from fluctuating hash prices, all while preserving the company’s existing mining fleet and bitcoin treasury. The company’s primary challenge moving forward will be execution: successfully bringing the 175-megawatt capacity online by the end of 2027 and converting its Texas letters of intent into finalized lease agreements.
