BitMine increased its holdings by 101,901 ETH last week, bringing the total holdings to approximately 5.078 million coins

According to PR Newswire, BitMine increased its holdings by 101,901 Ethereum last week, marking the highest weekly purchase volume since the week of December 15, 2025. As of April 26, 2026, its total Ethereum holdings reached 5,078,386, accounting for approximately 4.21% of the total Ethereum supply.Currently, the total value of the cryptocurrencies, cash, and other investment assets held by BitMine is approximately $13.3 billion, which includes $940 million in cash, 200 Bitcoins, $200 million in equity assets from Beast Industries, and a $91 million investment in Eightco Holdings (ORBS). Additionally, it has staked 3,701,589 Ethereum (73% of total holdings), valued at approximately $8.8 billion, with a current annualized staking yield of about $264 million.BitMine Chairman Tom Lee stated that the company's ETH holdings surpassed 5 million this week, achieving this accumulation in just 10 months, and has completed 84% of its goal to hold 5% of the total ETH supply. Tom Lee noted that multiple research reports suggest ETH is gradually becoming a "store of value" asset and will be used as collateral in digital asset financial transactions. Since the outbreak of the U.S.-Iran war, ETH has outperformed the S&P 500 by 1,696 basis points, making it one of the best-performing assets globally (second only to crude oil).He also pointed out that Ethereum continues to benefit from the dual drivers of Wall Street's on-chain tokenization and the growing demand for public neutral blockchains from AI intelligent systems, indicating that this round of the crypto winter has entered its final phase.

Lido discloses the impact of the Kelp security incident: approximately 9% of EarnETH exposure affected, core staking assets are secure

Lido has released the latest developments regarding the Kelp security incident, stating that its Earn series vaults are working with the management to address the issues, which involve two major risk points: the rsETH exposure and the liquidity tension in the lending market. Lido emphasizes that the core staking protocol has not been affected, and both stETH and wstETH remain safe and stable.Currently, only the EarnETH vault has an approximately 9% TVL exposure to rsETH, and related deposits and withdrawals have been suspended by the management, awaiting a solution. Approximately $70 million in ETH has been recovered from the previous attack, and the subsequent asset recovery and loss distribution are still in progress. In response to liquidity pressure, the management has reduced leverage and optimized the position structure, significantly decreasing the wETH debt exposure. If losses ultimately occur, EarnETH will activate a $3 million "first loss protection mechanism" (funded by the DAO). As for other vaults, DVV and EarnUSD have not been affected and are operating normally; the GGV sub-vault is currently experiencing negative returns due to the combination of circular staking strategies and rising lending rates, but adjustments are ongoing. Withdrawal requests submitted by users will be processed based on valuations prior to the incident.
