As reported, Bullish’s stock surged 83.8% during its IPO session and raised $1.1 billion, making it one of the year’s most-watched public listings in crypto.

BitMine adds $65M in ETH
On Thursday, BitMine, the largest corporate holder of Ether (ETH), purchased another $65 million worth of ETH through six OTC transactions via Galaxy Digital. This latest acquisition pushes BitMine’s holdings to more than 1.5% of Ethereum’s circulating supply, all bought with cash and no leverage.
The buy comes as centralized exchanges face a significant Ether supply squeeze, with reserves down 38% since 2022 due to rising institutional accumulation and ETF activity.
