Ethereum treasury enterprise Bitmine (BMNR) has recently continued to increase its staking deployment. On-chain monitoring shows that about 2 hours ago, Bitmine deposited another 82,560 ETH into the Ethereum PoS staking contract, worth approximately $259 million. This is yet another move by the organization since launching its staking strategy on December 27. The statistics are particularly impressive — in just one week, Bitmine's total staked amount has reached 544,064 ETH. Based on the current Ethereum price, this staking commitment is valued at over $1.7 billion. The ongoing increased commitment by major institutions may be hinting at market confidence in Ethereum's medium- to long-term prospects.

Wow, 1.7 billion staked in a week, this pace is really aggressive. Bitmine is placing a bet, it seems that big institutions really have a different view on ETH. Only two weeks and already investing so much? They must be very optimistic to dare to do that. This looks like accumulating chips, I feel there might be a story behind it.

Are big institutions betting on Ethereum long-term with this move? Or are they just looking for stable returns... I can't resist the temptation a bit.

Big institutions are pouring money into staking like crazy—either genuinely optimistic or just betting on returns. Anyway, us retail investors are just here to watch the dust settle.

This move by the big institutions is signaling at full throttle. Those without ETH in hand should reflect on their position.

Wow, a staking limit of $1.7 billion, Bitmine is really optimistic about ETH. --- Big institutions are stacking up, and as a retail investor, what are you hesitating for? --- 544K ETH in one week? That’s incredible, I have to admit. --- By the way, does this signal something behind the scenes? It feels like it’s about to take off. --- Staking yields + ETH appreciation, a double benefit approach that’s really attractive. --- The $1.7 billion figure is a bit shocking, but it also shows that institutions are still full of confidence. --- Once again, it’s the story of institutions bottoming out. When can we retail investors catch up? --- I check on-chain data every day; this move is indeed extraordinary. --- But the risk of locking up during the staking period should also be considered. Going all-in on one direction feels a bit risky. --- Bitmine’s move might really be a sign of something; we need to keep an eye on it.

Wow, 1.7 billion USD, this pace is a bit crazy --- What are the institutions betting on? Are they really bullish on ETH? --- 544k ETH in a week, is this bottom-fishing or dumping? --- Oh my, the intensity... feels like the market is about to change --- Bitmine is so aggressive, when will we retail investors catch up? --- Staking so much, how is the risk calculated? --- Once again, institutions are playing chess, and we're just watching the market --- I'm a bit confused by this data, is it really that much? --- Just a week, 1.7 billion, what does it mean... --- Damn, is this what they call confidence?
