Overview Public companies now hold roughly 7.88 million ETH between them, about 6.6 percent of circulating supply, a position large enough to matter to the token's float. Yet equity markets are pricing most of these companies below the value of what they own. The clearest signal arrived in July, when BitMine, the largest corporate holder, sharply slowed its token purchases and redirected cash into buying back its own shares, stating plainly that the stock traded below the per-share value of its

Overview Almost every conversation about BMNR reduces to a single question about where the share price is going. For a company whose asset base is more than 90 percent ether, that question is largely unanswerable on its own terms, because the price is the product of four observable variables: token count, ether's price, share count, and the multiple the market assigns to net asset value. The company disclosed on 20 July that it holds 5,777,468 ETH which, together with bitcoin, equity stakes and

Overview BMNR ran from roughly 13 dollars to above 17 in the second week of July, making it one of the few crypto-linked US equities to post a meaningful bounce this month. The trigger was not a rally in ether. On 20 July, BitMine disclosed that it had bought just 7,430 ETH over the prior week while spending roughly 86 million dollars repurchasing 5.5 million of its own shares. For a company that had added ether every single week for more than a year, that is the first substantive change in how

Executive SummaryIntel reported stronger-than-expected second-quarter 2026 earnings as demand for data center CPUs, AI infrastructure and higher-end client processors supported its fastest revenue growth in more than 15 years. Revenue increased 25% to $16.1 billion, while adjusted earnings reached $0.42 per share. Intel also issued Q3 revenue and profit guidance above Wall Street estimates. However, investors still need to watch rising capital spending, foundry economics and whether external cus

Overview BitMEX confirmed on 23 July 2026 that it will close on 23 September 2026 at 04:00 UTC and halted new account registrations with immediate effect, according to the exchange's official announcement. The decision followed a strategic review by the board of its parent company, HDR Global Trading Limited. With a fixed deadline now in place, derivatives users are re-evaluating where to trade, and the comparison between BitMEX and MEXC has become a practical question rather than an academic on

Overview BitMEX confirmed on 23 July 2026 that it will close on 23 September 2026 at 04:00 UTC, halting new account registrations immediately, according to the exchange's official announcement. The venue that invented the perpetual swap is leaving the market it created, and users still holding positions or balances face a fixed timetable rather than an open question. The search for a replacement arrives at a moment when derivatives liquidity itself is being redistributed, with volume concentrati

Overview Over the past seven years, QuadrigaCX, FTX, and Bittrex have exited the market, while BitMEX survived only after paying more than 210 million dollars in penalties and rebuilding its compliance stack. Exchange failures are never abstract events. They determine whether users recover their assets, how long the process takes, and how much value is lost along the way. With the FTX estate now approaching 10 billion dollars in creditor distributions, the market is revisiting a foundational que

Overview BitMEX users now face a task that extends beyond closing positions. They need to export account records, withdraw available balances, select the correct blockchain network, confirm deposits at a destination wallet or exchange, and rebuild trading controls before placing new orders. According to the official BitMEX closure announcement, the exchange will cease operations on September 23, 2026, at 04:00 UTC. New registrations have already stopped. From August 26 at 04:00 UTC, existing use

Overview BitMEX will shut down its exchange on September 23, 2026, at 04:00 UTC, ending an operating history of more than 11 years for one of the most influential venues in crypto derivatives. The BitMEX Shutdown matters beyond the closure of a single exchange because BitMEX helped invent and popularise the perpetual swap, a product that now dominates digital asset derivatives trading. According to the official BitMEX closure announcement, the exchange has stopped accepting new account registrat
