Özet

Ethereum treasury company Bitmine has purchased an additional 71,179 ETH (worth approximately $146 million) over the past week, increasing its total holdings to 4,732,082 ETH. This represents 3.92% of the total ETH supply, bringing the firm closer to its goal of owning 5%. Bitmine chairman Thomas Lee stated the company is accelerating its accumulation, believing ETH is in the final stages of a "mini-crypto winter." The firm has also staked 66% of its reserves (3,142,643 ETH) to earn passive income. In related news, the Ethereum Foundation has also staked a record $46.2 million worth of ETH. Despite recent market dip below $2,000, ETH has since recovered to over $2,060.

Ethereum treasury company Bitmine has announced that it loaded up on 71,179 ETH over the past week, taking its supply share to 3.92%.

Bitmine Has Continued Its Aggressive Ethereum Accumulation

As announced in a press release, Bitmine participated in additional Ethereum buying during the last week. In total, the firm has added 71,179 ETH with this accumulation spree, worth nearly $146 million right now. The purchase is larger than the recent weekly average for the company. “Bitmine has maintained the increased pace of ETH buys in each of the past four weeks, as our base case is ETH is in the final stages of the ‘mini-crypto winter,'” said Thomas “Tom” Lee, Bitmine chairman.

Originally a Bitcoin mining-focused firm, Bitmine pivoted to an Ethereum treasury strategy in mid-2025. Since then, the firm has followed in the footsteps of Michael Saylor’s Strategy, continuously accumulating ETH even as the bearish market shift has occurred.

The sector has faced an especially high degree uncertainty recently with the war situation in Iran. Lee pointed out, however, that crypto has held up well even as the war enters its 5th week, with ETH outperforming equities by 1,160 basis points. In contrast, Gold, the traditional safe-haven, has underperformed by more than 750 basis points. “Crypto is demonstrating itself to be a good ‘war time’ store of value,” noted the Bitmine chairman.

Following the latest addition, Bitmine’s Ethereum reserves have grown to 4,732,082 ETH, equivalent to 3.92% of the cryptocurrency’s total supply in circulation. The firm has set a goal of 5% of the supply, so at the current figure, it’s already over 78% of its way to the target in just eight months.

Lately, Bitmine has also been putting its ETH toward staking to earn some passive income through the Proof-of-Stake (PoS) contract. Unlike BTC, where miners secure the network, ETH is instead protected by stakers, validators who put forward some initial ‘stake’ to take part in consensus-making. Just like how miners earn rewards for mining blocks, stakers also get rewards when they add a block to the chain.

According to the press release, Bitmine has a total of 3,142,643 ETH staked right now, representing 66% of the total reserves held by the company. “Bitmine has staked more ETH than other entities in the world,” said Lee.

Bitmine isn’t the only organization locking its ETH in the PoS contract. As highlighted by Arkham in an X post, the Ethereum Foundation, a non-profit group dedicated to supporting the ETH blockchain, has just transferred $46.2 million worth of the cryptocurrency to the staking deposit contract. “This is more ETH than they have EVER staked before,” explained Arkham.

In Conversation with Ray Dalio: We Are Currently in an AI Bubble, with 1% of My Portfolio in Bitcoin

Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, warns in an interview that the current AI boom shows classic bubble characteristics, which could lead to significant economic downturns as seen in past cycles like 1929 or 2000. He explains that speculative enthusiasm, fueled by debt and overvaluation, often precedes a crash when rising rates or taxation force asset sales, causing widespread losses and recession. Dalio also outlines his "Big Cycle" theory, describing an approximate 80-year pattern where widening wealth gaps, massive government deficits, and shifting geopolitical power (like China's rise) create internal conflict and global instability. He emphasizes that we are in a late-cycle, transitional phase where traditional powers like the US and UK face decline. For personal wealth protection, Dalio advises diversification beyond cash into assets like stocks, bonds, real estate, and particularly gold, which he prefers over Bitcoin. While he holds about 1% of his portfolio in Bitcoin as a non-printable hard asset, he views gold as more secure from technological or governmental threats. Regarding AI's impact, Dalio believes it will disproportionately benefit capital owners, worsening inequality by replacing both physical and cognitive labor. He suggests that human intuition and emotional intelligence, combined with AI, will be key for future workers. On taxation, Dalio argues that wealth taxes are impractical and risk triggering asset sell-offs, reducing productive investment. He points to the UK as a cautionary example of debt, low productivity, and political strife. Geopolitically, Dalio foresees a more regionalized world, with the US showing weakness in prolonged conflicts like with Iran, akin to past imperial declines. The ideal outcome, he suggests, is coexisting powerful blocs (e.g., Americas, China-Asia Pacific) without major war.

Daily 7.2 Trillion KRW: Foreign Capital's Record Net Buying on Friday! Wall Street Says Headwinds for Korean Stock Fund Flows Have Subsided

South Korean stock market sees a dramatic shift in fund flows. On July 31, foreign investors made a record net purchase of approximately KRW 7.2 trillion in KOSPI stocks, marking a fundamental reversal from the persistent large-scale net outflows seen in previous months. This contributed to a significant narrowing of foreign net selling in July to KRW 9.8 trillion, down sharply from KRW 48.4 trillion in June and KRW 44.5 trillion in May. Simultaneously, domestic institutional pressure eased. South Korean pension funds and asset managers turned to a net buying position in July, purchasing KRW 1.0 trillion worth of KOSPI shares, contrasting with net sales in May and June. Market volatility is expected to be dampened by new financial regulations. Effective July 31, the Financial Services Commission tightened access for retail investors to single-stock leveraged ETFs by raising the minimum cash deposit requirement. Trading volumes for these products subsequently dropped to about 50% of their monthly average. Citigroup Research maintains its year-end KOSPI target of 10,000 points. The firm cites several supportive factors: the substantial easing of headwinds from capital outflows, a robust fundamental outlook for the semiconductor sector, historically low market valuations, strong economic fundamentals, and the potential for policy support from financial authorities if needed.

Thanks to Dice Rolls, Bitcoin Keys Are Stored Offline, But Not Everyone Will Do It

The article discusses using dice rolls to generate secure Bitcoin wallet seeds, providing entropy independent of potentially flawed hardware random number generators. It explains that each fair dice roll offers about 2.585 bits of entropy, with around 50 rolls needed for a standard 12-word seed phrase and 99+ recommended for higher security. This method gained attention after a vulnerability was revealed in some Coldcard hardware wallets, where a faulty firmware RNG (dating back to 2021) compromised generated keys. The analysis notes that while a dice-generated main seed was safe from this specific flaw, other Coldcard functions (like creating paper wallets, backup keys, or passwords) could still be vulnerable if they used the defective RNG. The piece argues that while dice-based entropy is technically robust, the manual process is error-prone, tedious, and unrealistic for most new users, who might make mistakes in recording or inputting rolls. It concludes that while manual entropy generation should remain an option for advanced users, the long-term goal is to develop reliable, user-friendly hardware and software that securely generates randomness without requiring specialized knowledge. Coldcard users are advised to check their firmware version and replace any secondary secrets (like paper wallet keys) created with vulnerable devices, while also considering multi-signature setups with devices from different manufacturers for added security.
