Bitmine Immersion Technologies, a Bitcoin miner and Ethereum treasury company, released its July Chairman's Message on July 16, 2026. The message, titled 'ETH is the cure for the Uncanny Valley of Wealth,' discusses the company's belief that Ethereum is a critical interface to protect humans from the growing economic power of AI. Bitmine owns 4.8% of the total ETH supply and is 96% toward its goal of acquiring 5% of ETH. The company was added to the Russell 1000 Large-cap index on June 26, 2026, and its Series A Preferred Stock trades on the NYSE under BMNP. Bitmine is supported by institutional investors including ARK Investment Management's Cathie Wood, Italian Founders Fund, William Miller, Pantera Capital, Kraken, Digital Currency Group, Galaxy Digital, and Thomas Lee. The message also notes positive crypto developments in 2026 such as bank tokenization and new Ethereum L2 launches like Robinhood Chain.
