BMNR•BitMine Immersion Technologies holds 5.28 million ETH, resulting in $7.8 billion in unrealized losses after a 57% Ether decline from its 2025 peak. The company’s $8.58 billion market cap qualifies it for Russell 1000 inclusion, potentially boosting demand from passive index funds upon the June 26 reconstitution.
BitMine Immersion Technologies currently holds roughly 5.28 million ETH in its treasury, representing nearly 4.4% of the network’s circulating supply. Since peaking near $4,955 in late 2025, Ether has plunged over 57%, resulting in an approximate $7.8 billion unrealized loss based on an average purchase price near $3,513 per ETH.
The firm launched its Ethereum treasury strategy in July 2025 with a $250 million private placement, accumulating 163,000 ETH by mid-2025 and scaling up to its current holdings. Despite the multi-month downturn, management continues to accumulate ETH, citing historical recovery patterns following major price drawdowns.
With a market capitalization of $8.58 billion, BitMine meets the $5.7 billion threshold for Russell 1000 large-cap inclusion. FTSE Russell’s preliminary list includes the company, with final index adjustments set to take effect after U.S. markets close on June 26, potentially triggering buy orders from index-tracking funds.
Inclusion in the Russell 1000 could drive demand from passive and active funds that target the index, supporting share price stability or upside. Conversely, continued exposure to Ether volatility poses risk to the balance sheet, as further declines could amplify unrealized losses and investor concern.
