Tom Lee sets 5% supply ownership ceiling for BitMine Immersion
What happened
Tom Lee established a 5% supply ownership ceiling for BitMine Immersion. This move means the company will end its purchases of Ethereum, retaining roughly 100,000 ETH. Meanwhile, spot Ethereum Exchange-Traded Funds logged nine consecutive sessions of outflows, dropping net assets from $17.7 billion to $15.7 billion.

Why it matters
The ceiling limits the growth of BitMine Immersion's treasury, which holds the largest stake in the Ethereum ecosystem. This action comes as Ethereum's fee-burn no longer outpaces new issuance, causing supply to expand and potentially eroding its scarcity case.
BitMine Immersion has been accumulating Ethereum tokens and holds the largest treasury, while Thomas Lee believes its future is tied to the Ethereum ecosystem.
