Ethereum News Today: Corporate Ethereum Holdings Hit $13 Billion as Price Rises 20.4% in a Week

Corporate Ethereum holdings have surged to $13 billion as the price of ETH climbed above $4,300 in early August 2025, according to data from Strategic ETH Reserve. This marks a significant milestone in institutional adoption, with major firms aggressively accumulating the cryptocurrency to bolster their treasuries [1].

As of the latest report, companies collectively hold 3.04 million ETH, with BitMine Immersion Technologies leading the pack. The firm’s holdings have jumped to 833,100 ETH, representing a 410.68% increase in the past 30 days. At the start of July, BitMine’s ETH holdings were valued at approximately $2.9 billion, but the recent price surge has pushed the value to over $3.58 billion, making it the first company to cross the $3 billion threshold in ETH holdings [1].

SharpLink Gaming also made significant gains, increasing its treasury by 141.69% to 521,900 ETH. The value of its holdings has risen from $1.91 billion to over $2.23 billion. Strategic ETH Reserve data indicates that SharpLink now holds over $671 million in unrealized gains from its Ethereum investments, reflecting the substantial appreciation of its position [2].

The Ether Machine, another key player, added 15,000 ETH on August 3, followed by an additional 10,600 ETH on Sunday, raising its total holdings to 345,362 ETH. At current prices, these assets are valued at nearly $1.5 billion, securing The Ether Machine’s position in the top three ETH treasury holders [1].

Together, the top 10 ETH treasury entities hold 2.63 million ETH, which accounts for about 2.63% of the total ETH supply. Their combined holdings are valued at over $11.3 billion, demonstrating the growing institutional interest in Ethereum. With 64 companies now maintaining Ethereum treasuries, the total value of corporate ETH holdings exceeds $13 billion [1].

The recent price action has been robust, with Ethereum reaching $4,332 on Monday, representing a 20.4% rise in the previous seven days. Although the price has since slightly receded to $4,290, the overall trend remains upward [1].

Smaller-scale purchases have also contributed to the accumulation trend. For example, IVD Medical acquired HK$149 million (approximately $19 million) worth of ETH via HashKey Exchange, though the exact token amount was not disclosed [1].

The sustained buying activity by institutional investors signals strong confidence in Ethereum’s long-term value. As corporate treasuries continue to allocate capital to digital assets, the broader market may see further price appreciation and increased adoption of Ethereum in institutional portfolios.
