BitMine Immersion Technologies, Inc. BMNR Chairman

What Thomas "Tom" Lee says in public, and what their own SEC filings show they own.

Thomas "Tom" Lee

Chairman of the Board · BitMine Immersion Technologies, Inc.

Elected to the board and made chairman on 28 June 2025, two days before the ETH treasury strategy began. Managing partner and head of research at Fundstrat Global Advisors and chief investment officer of Fundstrat Capital. He is the public voice of the company: the weekly Reg FD 8-K that reports the ETH count is quoted in his name, and the equity trades on his thesis about the ETH/BTC ratio far more than on anything in the revenue line.

SEC filings
9
Stake 717,244 reported shares ≈ 0.1% of shares outstanding — no 13G on file, so an estimate 12/35
Founder Not assessed — whether they founded the company has not been researched Not assessed
Tenure No start date on record, so tenure scores nothing 0/10
Track record Not assessed — their prior companies have not been researched Not assessed
Direction No open-market buys or sales in the last year 5/15
Discipline 2 late Form 4s in 9 filings 7/10

Nobody has researched this person's career yet, so founder and track record are left out of the score and of the total above.

Score = stake band (35) + founder (15) + tenure (10) + track record (15) + 12-month direction (−10…15) + filing discipline (10). An axis we have not researched is left out of the score and of the total it is shown over. Every input links to a filing or to our own research; the bands are ours.

Reported is every lot on the person's own Forms 3, 4 and 5 — direct and through trusts. Beneficial is the figure stated on the latest Schedule 13D/G cover page, which can exclude shares the person disclaims and include options exercisable within 60 days, so the two are never added together.

BitMine Is About to Own 5% of ETH | Tom Lee

Lee put the remaining distance to the 5%-of-supply target at roughly $350 million of ETH and said BitMine could cover it before the end of 2026, and argued ether could "easily" trade above $10,000 on tokenization and agentic-AI demand. He also said staking rewards - which the company puts near $300 million a year - more than cover the preferred dividend, so there is no reason to sell ETH.
