Staked ETH Reaches 4.36 Million
Bitmine reported 4,362,757 ETH stake as of May 3, 2026. The company valued ETH at about $10.2 billion. That value used the same ETH price of $2,336. The staked amount equals more than 84% of Bitmine’s total ETH holdings. The company said annualized staking revenue is now $297 million.
It also reported a seven-day annualized yield of 2.91%. Bitmine recently launched MAVAN, the Made in American VAlidator Network. The platform was developed to support its Ethereum treasury. The company said MAVAN may later serve institutions, custodians, and ecosystem partners.
Lee said Bitmine has staked more ETH than other entities. He also said full staking at scale could produce $352 million annually. That estimate used the reported 2.91% seven-day BMNR yield.
Lee Comments on Crypto Policy and Market Position
Lee referred to the CLARITY Act compromise text in his comments. He said the draft bans stablecoin yield on reserves. He also said activity-based rewards can be offered under the proposal. “This compromise is largely acceptable to us,” Lee said. He added that the company hopes to see the bill passed in 2026. He also cited prediction market odds for passage in 2026.
Lee said Ethereum continues to benefit from tokenization and agentic AI systems. He said public and neutral blockchains may be needed for these systems. He also said ETH may be viewed as a store of value and unit of exchange. Bitmine described itself as the largest Ethereum treasury. It also said it ranks behind Strategy Inc. among global crypto treasuries. Strategy reportedly owns 818,334 BTC valued at $64.2 billion.
The company also cited Fundstrat trading data, saying Bitmine stock had a five-day average daily dollar volume of $625 million as of May 1, 2026. It said this ranked number 173 among 5,704 U.S.-listed stocks. Bitmine tied its treasury growth to Ethereum accumulation, staking, policy developments, and long-term validator infrastructure.
