As of March 22, the second-largest crypto treasury firm holds 4,660,903 ETH, 196 Bitcoin (BTC), a $200 million stake in Beast Industries, a $95 million stake in Eightco Holdings as part of its \u201cMoonshots\u201d initiative, and unencumbered cash worth $1.1 billion.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, it holds 3.86% of ETH\u2019s total supply, and nears its goal to control 5% of the leading altcoin\u2019s 120.7 million supply. Meanwhile, the firm\u2019s total <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/ethereum-news\/bitmine-locks-68-of-ethereum-holdings-as-staking-position-surpasses-6-75b\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">staked<\/a> ETH stands at 3,142,643, worth $6.5 billion at $2,072 per ETH.<\/p>\n<p>Bitmine\u2019s chairman, Tom Lee, highlighted that the company maintained its increasing purchasing pace due to its base case that \u201cETH is in the final stages of the \u2018mini-crypto winter.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As he noted, \u201ccrypto and particularly ETH have outperformed the broader market since the Iran war commenced, with ETH rising 18% and outperforming equities by 2,450bp.\u201d To Lee, this has demonstrated that cryptocurrencies are a \u201cgood \u2018wartime\u2019 store of value.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also highlighted the US Congress\u2019s recent progress on the CLARITY Act, affirming that it will be a positive fundamental catalyst for Ethereum and \u201canother reason probabilities favor the crypto winter as being largely behind us.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Ethereum Bullish Momentum Returned?<\/h2>\n<p>On Monday morning, Ethereum rose alongside the rest of the crypto market after President Donald Trump announced he was postponing planned strikes on Iranian energy power plants for five days.<\/p>\n<p>Ethereum surged 8% from the $2,000 psychological level, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/ethereum-2100-blackrock-debuts-staked-eth-etf\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">reclaiming<\/a> the crucial $2,150 area. Analyst Ali Martinez noted that the King of Altcoin is \u201cshowing signs of a major structural shift,\u201d as it has shown the strongest combination of technical support and on-chain signals in months.<\/p>\n<p>From a <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/alicharts\/status\/2035693147460673859?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">technical perspective<\/a>, Ethereum is currently trading within a multi-year ascending triangle pattern on the weekly chart. This pattern suggests a potential breakout towards the $10,000 level.<\/p>\n<p>As he explained, the recent move toward $1,800 served as \u201ca critical reaction point, aligning with the rising trendline of this multi-year structure.\u201d In addition, on-chain data confirms that the recovery \u201cwasn\u2019t just a random bounce,\u201d with the MVRV ratio recently dropping below 0.8, which historically has been a \u201cgenerational buy zone.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>The fact that this on-chain reset happened exactly as price tested the triangle\u2019s support adds massive weight to the bullish thesis.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>He also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/ethereum-downtrend-first-bullish-signal-september\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">highlighted<\/a> that the key SuperTrend indicator has flipped from Sell to Buy for the first time since May, suggesting that the extended sideways period is ending, and a new uptrend is beginning.<\/p>\n<p>Martinez concluded that a sustained move above the $2,350 area would be the first signal that Ethereum is exiting its accumulation range and entering a \u201ctrue bull market expansion\u201d and that any dips into the $1,800-$2,000 range should be \u201cviewed as an opportunity as long as the $1,800 floor remains intact.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" class=\"size-large wp-image-888587\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ETHUSDT_2026-03-23_12-21-13.png?w=860&amp;resize=860%2C580\" alt=\"Ethereum, eth, ethusdt\" width=\"860\" height=\"580\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitmine has increased its bet on Ethereum (ETH) with a $137 million purchase, as the King of Altcoins reclaims the crucial $2,150 level, and some market observers call for the end of the crypto market correction.
