Ethereum Updates Today: Institutional Magic: Ethereum’s $13 Billion Reserve Stands Strong Against Market Fluctuations
- Michael Saylor and Tom Lee drive Ethereum's institutional adoption, with BitMine holding 3.34M ETH ($13.2B) as the largest treasury. - BitMine's $113M ETH purchase via Galaxy Digital aims to reach 5% of Ethereum's supply, following a $29.28M buy in November. - Saylor's Strategy Inc. (MSTR) holds 640,808 BTC ($23.2B gains) and predicts $150K Bitcoin by 2025 amid regulatory progress. - Despite 13% Ethereum price drop in October, institutional confidence persists through OTC buying strategies and treasury m

BitMine’s latest acquisition of $113 million in Ethereum—adding 27,316 ETH—demonstrates this institutional momentum. The purchase, executed through Galaxy Digital’s OTC desk, supports
Even with strong institutional interest, the market remains volatile. Bitcoin’s price dropped 8% in October, wiping out $18.8 billion from the crypto treasury sector’s market value, while Ethereum declined 13% during the same period. Saylor, however, stays positive, recently increasing Strategy’s STRC preferred stock yield to 10.5% to support further Bitcoin acquisitions, as reported by
Lee’s support for Ethereum faces doubt among retail traders, with prediction markets now estimating a 31% probability of ETH reaching $5,000 by 2025, down from 40% in October. Nevertheless, institutional faith remains robust: BitMine’s OTC buying approach minimizes market disruption, and Saylor’s treasury strategy has been adopted by companies like BitMine and Marathon Digital. However, uncertainty around Federal Reserve policy and global tensions present challenges, with Lee cautioning that Bitcoin’s volatility could intensify downturns in traditional markets.
As of November 2, Ethereum was trading at $3,918, a 2.71% decrease over 24 hours, while Strategy’s shares slipped 0.17% in after-hours trading. The balance between institutional buying and broader economic challenges is likely to shape the next stage of cryptocurrency’s integration into the global financial system.
