first_img Bitmine staked over 5 million ETH, expecting an annual staking income of 334 million USD

Cryptocurrency asset company Bitmine Immersion Technologies announced last week that it has increased its holdings by 27,180 ETH, bringing its total ETH holdings to over 5.95 million, valued at approximately $1.54 billion, accounting for about 4.9% of the circulating supply of Ethereum. Including cash and other cryptocurrency assets, the company's total holdings amount to approximately $15.8 billion.Bitmine stated that currently over 5.06 million ETH are staked, and based on the current yield, it is expected to generate approximately $334 million in staking income annually, with about 85% of its ETH holdings used for staking. In comparison, the staking ratio for Grayscale Ethereum Staked ETF (ETHE) is 84.6%. Since BTC does not generate native staking income, this strategy has advantages over treasury companies holding Bitcoin. On Monday, Bitmine's stock price remained flat, around $25, having risen nearly 38% over the past month.Meanwhile, Michael Saylor's Strategy has not purchased Bitcoin for the second consecutive week, instead opting to repurchase its STRC preferred shares. Between September 8 and 13, Strategy spent $139.3 million to repurchase approximately 1.42 million shares of STRC, following a previous week where it repurchased $176.3 million worth of STRC. As of September 13, Strategy's Bitcoin holdings remained unchanged at 845,050 coins.

first_img Kraken launched xStocks Vault, allowing users to stake tokenized stocks to earn yields

According to The Defiant, Kraken has launched three xStocks vaults, allowing eligible customers to deposit SPYx, QQQx, and NVDAx into the vaults while earning floating returns while retaining exposure to tokenized stocks or ETFs. The vault initially shows an estimated net APY of 2% for SPYx and QQQx, and 1.8% for NVDAx. Kraken charges a 25% performance fee on vault earnings, and the displayed interest rate has already deducted this fee; rewards will be converted into the same type of xStock and automatically reinvested into the customer's balance.The strategy is designed by Sentora and is responsible for risk management, while Veda provides the vault infrastructure. After customers deposit xStock, Kraken transfers it to an embedded self-custody wallet on Ink, packages it, and deposits it into the Veda vault; Sentora then cross-chain transfers the packaged xStock to Solana and deposits it as collateral in the Kamino lending market. After borrowing stablecoins, it is deployed into selected DeFi strategies, and the returns are ultimately converted back into the deposited xStock. Customers do not need an external wallet or mnemonic phrase but can export the private key; redemption requires a three-day wait for funds to arrive.Kraken's documentation shows that the strategy uses leverage to generate returns by borrowing stablecoins and lists risks such as smart contracts, liquidity, bad debts, liquidation, cross-chain execution, and downstream assets, with losses shared proportionally among vault users. xStock holders do not have voting rights, dividend rights, or legal claims to the underlying stocks. The vault is currently available to the European Economic Area and other supported markets, while users from the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, the United Arab Emirates, and sanctioned countries cannot use it.

Bitget CEO 8th Anniversary Open Letter: From Chaser to Leader in Innovation, the Pursuit of Trading Excellence Has No Finish Line

Bitget celebrates its 8th anniversary, and CEO Gracy has released an anniversary open letter. She candidly stated that a year ago, when Bitget proposed the panoramic exchange UEX strategy, there were many doubts from the outside world, but the team chose to respond with product implementation. She mentioned that the starting point of UEX is to solve the fragmentation of assets, accounts, time, and geography, allowing users to trade high-quality global assets in one stop. Now, more and more leading exchanges are beginning to layout traditional financial trading, and Gracy referred to 2025 to 2026 as the "Year of Multi-Asset Trading."In her letter, Gracy wrote that over the past year, Bitget has transitioned from a "follower" to a "leader in product innovation," successively launching products such as stock perpetual contracts, Pre-IPO, cross-asset unified accounts, rToken, and Hong Kong stock Quanto contracts. Data shows that the peak trading volume of non-crypto assets has accounted for 40% of the platform's total trading volume, with daily trading volumes of TradFi contracts and CFDs both exceeding $10 billion, and the cumulative number of rToken transactions surpassing 3 million.Regarding the next phase, institutional business will become the core direction of Bitget. By the second quarter of 2026, the net asset scale of Bitget's institutional clients is expected to grow by 45% compared to the third quarter of 2025, with the number of core active market makers increasing from 90 to 248. In the future, the platform will continue to optimize trading execution, asset security, and institutional service links. Gracy concluded her open letter by stating, "The pursuit of trading excellence is never complete; it is always in progress. The era of multi-asset trading has just begun."
