BitMine’s growing ETH losses highlight the risks of crypto treasury strategies as leverage unwinds and weak liquidity accelerates market downturns.
BitMine Immersion Technologies, a publicly traded cryptocurrency treasury company linked to investor Tom Lee, is carrying significant unrealized losses on its Ether holdings following the latest wave of market liquidations, underscoring the risks facing crypto balance-sheet strategies during sharp downturns.
After acquiring an additional 40,302 Ether (ETH) last week and increasing its total holdings to more than 4.24 million ETH, BitMine’s unrealized losses have grown to over $6 billion, according to data from Dropstab, a platform that tracks digital asset prices and portfolio valuations.
Based on current market prices, BitMine’s Ether holdings are valued at roughly $9.6 billion, down from a peak of about $13.9 billion in October, reflecting the impact of the broader crypto sell-off.
