BitMine leads as institutional ETH holdings climb amid growing adoption
Ethereum treasuries have crossed a major milestone, with 69 entities now holding over 4.1 million ETH worth approximately $17.6 billion, according to data from StrategicETHReserve. This surge underscores the growing trend of corporate and institutional interest in Ethereum as a strategic asset.
Who Holds the Most Ethereum?
The report shows that these 69 organizations collectively hold 3.39% of Ethereum’s total supply, marking a significant concentration of ETH among top treasuries.
Leading the list is BitMine Immersion Technologies, which now controls around 1.5 million ETH, valued at $6.6 billion. The company has notably shifted its core strategy from Bitcoin mining to aggressive ETH accumulation, signaling confidence in Ethereum’s long-term role in decentralized finance and blockchain infrastructure.
SharpLink Gaming ranks second, holding 740,800 ETH worth about $3.2 billion. Other major holders include The Ether Machine with 345,400 ETH and the Ethereum Foundation, which maintains 231,600 ETH in its reserves.
Corporate Treasuries and ETFs Drive Demand
Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs) have become a key trend in the crypto investment landscape, with Ethereum treasuries gaining momentum. Public companies alone account for 2.6 million ETH, worth about $10.9 billion, as of the latest figures.
Meanwhile, U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs now hold roughly 6.7 million ETH, representing about 5.5% of the current supply, according to industry data. This reflects a growing appetite for regulated Ethereum exposure among institutional investors.
Analysts suggest that consolidation of ETH in treasuries and ETFs could strengthen Ethereum’s market position, reducing liquid supply and potentially contributing to long-term price stability. As more corporations adopt ETH as part of their strategic reserves, Ethereum continues to solidify its role as a cornerstone of the digital economy.
