Strategy, Adds 220 BTC, BitMine Buys Over 200,000 ETH Amid Crypto Liquidation Cascade

Strategy MSTR and BitMine Immersion Technologies BMNR have expanded their crypto holdings of Bitcoin BTC/USD and Ethereum ETH/USD during what has been described as the largest liquidation event in digital asset history.

What Happened: BitMine added 202,037 ETH, boosting its total Ethereum holdings to over 3 million ETH, equivalent to roughly 2.5% of total supply.

This makes BitMine the world's largest Ethereum treasury and the second-largest overall crypto treasury after Strategy.

The company's total digital assets now stand at $13.4 billion, consisting of 3,032,188 ETH, worth about $12.6 billion, 192 BTC, a $135 million "moonshot" investment in Eightco Holdings, and $104 million in cash.

Meanwhile, Strategy disclosed the purchase of 220 BTC for $27.2 million at an average price of $123,561 per BTC, achieving a 25.9% BTC yield year-to-date in 2025.

As of Oct. 12, Strategy holds 640,250 BTC, acquired for approximately $47.4 billion at an average cost of $74,000 per BTC.

The previous records stood at $9.94 billion in April 2021 and $9 billion in May 2021.
