## Recent evidence

- [confirms] BitMine's Ether Holdings Reach 4.8% of Supply as an Italian Bank Rotates Into Staked Ether (2026-08-04): BitMine added 10,399 ether last week to reach 5.8 million coins, about 4.8% of supply, while Intesa Sanpaolo cut its bitcoin ETF call position by 99% and tripled its staked-ether holdings. A single listed vehicle approaching 5% of supply alongside a European bank rotating out of bitcoin exposure concentrates both float and consensus weight in a handful of balance sheets.
