Bit Digital Increases Ethereum Holdings With Fresh Purchase
Bit Digital announced earlier today that it had acquired 19,683 ETH using the net proceeds from its recently concluded $67.3 million share offering.

According to recent data, Bit Digital trails SharpLink’s 353,000 strong ETH treasury and BitMine Immersion’s 300,657 ETH. Commenting, Sam Tabar, CEO, Bit Digital, said:
The company also highlighted Ethereum’s growing importance as a versatile blockchain platform. ETH now serves as core collateral for stablecoins, powers a large portion of decentralized finance (DeFi) activity, and enables programmable financial systems.
Bit Digital emphasized that Ethereum’s ability to generate native yield through staking sets it apart from traditional digital assets, such as Bitcoin (BTC). At present, ETH commands a total market cap of $429.86 billion.
Following the announcement, Bit Digital shares saw a slight dip, trading at $3.96, down 1.13% on the day. However, the stock remains strong on a year-to-date basis, showing a 34.64% increase.
While Bitcoin (BTC) has long been the preferred crypto asset for corporate treasuries, ETH is rapidly closing the gap. Companies across sectors are now adopting ETH as part of a broader diversification strategy.
