What to know:
- Bitmine Immersion Technologies shares fell 20% on Thursday after the late Wednesday announcement of the sale of up to $2 billion in stock.
- Bitmine has recently pivoted to an Ethereum-focused treasury strategy with Fundstrat's Tom Lee at the helm.
Shares of Bitmine Immersion Technologies (BMNR), the ether treasury strategy firm helmed by Fundstrat's Thomas Lee, slid 20% Thursday, extending a 40% drop from the previous day, as the company disclosed plans to raise up to $2 billion through a stock sale agreement.
The selloff comes on the heels of Bitmine closing a $250 million funding round and securing an at-the-market (ATM) stock offering deal with Cantor Fitzgerald and ThinkEquity, according to a Wednesday SEC filing. Cantor will act as the lead agent, selling shares directly into the market over time at the company’s discretion.

The decline follows a parabolic run for Bitmine, which had surged 3,000% after announcing an Ethereum-focused treasury strategy and naming Fundstrat’s Tom Lee as chairman of the board.
However, CoinDesk last week reported that the price action could mirror a similar arc seen with Sharplink Gaming (SBET), another ETH treasury play, whose stock skyrocketed then plunged 90% after early investors began selling.
BMNR is down 65% since the report.

KuCoin captured a record share of centralised exchange volume in 2025, with more than $1.25tn traded as its volumes grew faster than the wider crypto market.
What to know:
- KuCoin recorded over $1.25 trillion in total trading volume in 2025, equivalent to an average of roughly $114 billion per month, marking its strongest year on record.
- This performance translated into an all-time high share of centralised exchange volume, as KuCoin’s activity expanded faster than aggregate CEX volumes, which slowed during periods of lower market volatility.
- Spot and derivatives volumes were evenly split, each exceeding $500 billion for the year, signalling broad-based usage rather than reliance on a single product line.
- Altcoins accounted for the majority of trading activity, reinforcing KuCoin’s role as a primary liquidity venue beyond BTC and ETH at a time when majors saw more muted turnover.
- Even as overall crypto volumes softened mid-year, KuCoin maintained elevated baseline activity, indicating structurally higher user engagement rather than short-lived volume spikes.
