Led by Chairman Tom Lee, Bitmine added nearly 33,000 ETH to its treasury during over the past week. Lee has predicted that the price of ether will go as high as $250,000 if bitcoin eventually reaches $1 million.

As of January 4, Bitmine had staked 659,219 ETH, equivalent to approximately $2.1 billion worth. The firm, which currently collaborates with three staking providers, aims to expand this number through the launch of its in-house validator, known as the Made in America Validator Network (MAVAN). It’s set to go live in early 2026.

If fully staked at current rates, the BitMine projects over $1 million per day in staking rewards, given the current Composite Ether Staking Rate (CESR) of around 2.82%.

BMNR’s shares are up 4.4% in early action Monday alongside a rise in the price of ether to $3,171.

KuCoin Hits Record Market Share as 2025 Volumes Outpace Crypto Market

Commissioned byKuCoin

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.
