The post Tom Lee’s BitMine (BMNR) Ramps Up Buying appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR), the Ethereum-focused digital asset treasury firm, acquired 138,452 ether ETH$3,127.55 last week, accelerating its accumulation strategy that lifted its total holdings to 3.86 million tokens, the company reported Monday. At current ETH prices, last week’s acquisition is worth roughly $435 million. That’s a 156% increase from four weeks ago when it added about 54,000 ETH, the firm pointed out, and it’s also higher than the previous two weeks’ haul of 97,000 and 70,000 tokens. The firm also increased its cash holdings to $1 billion, up from the previous week’s $882 million. Including its small bitcoin stash and a stake in Eightco Holdings (ORBS), the company’s total crypto and cash assets are worth $13.2 billion. The latest purchase increases BitMine’s share of the second largest cryptocurrency’s circulating supply to over 3.2%, reinforcing its position as the largest known ETH treasury. BitMine’s shares were up 3.8% pre-market with ETH modestly bouncing over the weekend back to $3,150. Digital asset treasuries have slowed or reversed accumulation as token prices and equity valuations came under pressure in recent weeks. BitMine has taken the opposite approach, increasing purchases as ether continues to trade well below its summer highs. Chairman Thomas Lee said the firm stepped up buying after Ethereum’s Fusaka upgrade on December 3, which introduced improvements to the network’s scalability and security. He also pointed to macro factors, including the Federal Reserve’s expected rate cut this month and the end of quantitative tightening, as support for a stronger ETH market in early 2026. Lee released a separate message Monday titled “The Crypto Supercycle is Intact,” arguing that expanding adoption and growing interest in tokenization could drive demand next year.

Here’s How Consumers May Benefit From Lower Interest Rates

Here’s How Consumers May Benefit From Lower Interest Rates

The post Here’s How Consumers May Benefit From Lower Interest Rates appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday opted to ease interest rates for the first time in months, leading the way for potentially lower mortgage rates, bond yields and a likely boost to cryptocurrency over the coming weeks. Average long-term mortgage rates dropped to their lowest levels in months ahead of the central bank’s policy shift. Copyright{2018} The Associated Press. All rights reserved. Key Facts The central bank’s policymaking panel voted this week to lower interest rates, which have sat between 4.25% and 4.5% since December, to a new range of 4% and 4.25%. How Will Lower Interest Rates Impact Mortgage Rates? Mortgage rates tend to fall before and during a period of interest rate cuts: The average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage dropped to 6.35% from 6.5% last week, the lowest level since October 2024, mortgage buyer Freddie Mac reported. Borrowing costs on 15-year fixed-rate mortgages also dropped to 5.5% from 5.6% as they neared the year-ago rate of 5.27%. When the Federal Reserve lowered the funds rate to between 0% and 0.25% during the pandemic, 30-year mortgage rates hit record lows between 2.7% and 3% by the end of 2020, according to data published by Freddie Mac. Consumers who refinanced their mortgages in 2020 saved about $5.3 billion annually as rates dropped, according to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Similarly, mortgage rates spiked around 7% as interest rates were hiked in 2022 and 2023, though mortgage rates appeared to react within weeks of the Fed opting to cut or raise rates. How Do Treasury Bonds Respond To Lower Interest Rates? Long-term Treasury yields are more directly influenced by interest rates, as lower rates tend to result in lower yields. When the Fed pushed rates to near zero during the pandemic, 10-year Treasury yields fell to an all-time low of 0.5%. As…
