BitMine Is Entering the Russell 1000 Despite Heavy $ETH Losses
Tom Lee’s BitMine is set to join the Russell 1000 Index after today’s market close, a move that could trigger buying from ETFs and mutual funds tracking the index.
Even so, the company is entering the benchmark under difficult conditions. BMNR is trading around $13.20, down more than 90% from its July 2025 peak of $135, while its Ethereum-heavy treasury reportedly sits on an estimated $10 billion in unrealized losses.
For me, this is an interesting contrast. Index inclusion could increase institutional demand for the stock, but long-term performance will still depend on how its Ethereum strategy plays out.
