What's Going On With BitMine Stock Thursday?
BitMine Immersion Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:BMNR) rallied this week, rising in premarket trading on Thursday and surging on Wednesday even as the broader market was mixed.
The catalyst was a $200 million equity investment into Beast Industries, backed by investors including Cathie Wood's ARK and Bill Miller III. BitMine framed the deal as a way to expand digital-asset products for clients and public-market participants, and as validation of Beast Industries' entertainment growth trajectory.
Sector headlines added tailwinds after U.S. senators released draft legislation to clarify when crypto tokens are considered securities versus commodities and to delineate oversight between the SEC and CFTC, with additional provisions for stablecoins.
Separately, BitMine reported a larger treasury: $14 billion in cryptocurrency, cash, and "moonshots," including approximately 4.17 million Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH/USD) (3.45% of the supply), 193 Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC/USD), and $988 million in cash.
It has 1,256,083 ETH staked and plans a U.S.-based validator network in first-quarter 2026. BitMine said it purchased 24,000 ETH in the past week, increasing its cash by $73 million, and will meet with shareholders on Jan. 15 at Wynn Las Vegas. Closing targeted Jan. 19, 2026.
