Giant Whale Against the Wind Bureau When the market was flooded with a chain of leveraged liquidation, BitMine remained steadfast in its billion dollar position of 2.83 million ETH (cost price $4535), instead adding 33000 ETH (approximately $126 million) against the trend. This anti killing operation has caused market polarization: on one hand, giant whales take advantage of the sharp decline to buy bottom, while on the other hand, hackers panic and cut meat. Despite a floating loss of up to 2.13 billion US dollars, BitMine's confidence stems from its long-term strategy of "Ethereum version MicroStrategy" - betting on ETH 2.0 upgrades and institutional adoption trends, rather than short-term price fluctuations. But short selling firm Kerrisdale pointed out the hidden dangers of its model: the relative premium of stock prices to net assets has narrowed, and frequent stock issuances have caused investor fatigue. Core contradiction: In a highly leveraged environment (such as USDe recursive lending), institutions see a sharp decline as an opportunity for layout, while individual investors become victims of liquidation. The success of BitMine's bold gamble depends on its ability to withstand liquidity tests and become the "shadow central bank" of the Ethereum ecosystem. On chain insights: Extreme market conditions are the touchstone of capital efficiency, and whale movements reveal the intense game between long-term narratives and short-term emotions
