Concurrently, BitMine's board approved a substantial increase in its share buyback program from $1 billion to $4 billion, positioning the company among the top 10 firms with the largest corporate buybacks. In addition to its stock market achievements, BitMine reported holding 4.8 million ETH, nearing its target of 6 million ETH. The firm recently launched the MAVAN staking platform, aiming to stake its entire ETH holdings and potentially earn $300 million annually from staking rewards. BitMine's stock, BMNR, closed at $21.29, down 2% after the announcement, with year-to-date losses aligning closely with Ethereum's 26% decline.
