4/5 As we stated in our July 27th presentation and Chairman's message, ETH Treasuries are crypto infrastructure:
- $ETH is proof of stake, so $BMNR secures network
- ETH generates a staking yield, which is revs for BMNR
- staking and validating is a security operation
- any entity tokenizing stablecoins, stocks, or any RWA (real world assets) will ultimately want to stake ETH

Per Tom Lee @fundstrat, Chairman of Bitmine:
“In our road to achieving ‘the alchemy of 5%’ of ETH, there may be times when the best expected return of our capital is to acquire our own shares”
