Strategy, BitMine keep on buying 💰

📝 What you need to know

Digital asset treasury firms Strategy and BitMine continue to scoop up Bitcoin and Ethereum for their respective stockpiles, with Strategy buying nearly a billion dollars worth of BTC for the second week in a row, while BitMine purchased some $320 million worth of ETH.

BitMine Chairman Tom Lee reiterated his conviction that crypto prices have “begun to recover,” even as Bitcoin slipped to its lowest price since the start of the month Monday morning amid market wobbles.

Strategy and BitMine’s respective share prices have fallen sharply in recent weeks, with Michael Saylor’s firm setting up a $1.4 billion cash reserve in order to help pay for dividends and avoid selling Bitcoin—a move Lee lauded as “smart” just a few days ago. Could BitMine follow suit?
