BitMine Immersion Technologies (AMEX:BMNR) has significantly expanded its stock sale capacity, outlining plans to raise up to $24.5 billion to accelerate Ethereum acquisitions.
What Happened: According to a supplementary prospectus filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) treasury company increased the maximum total of common stock it may sell under its Controlled Equity Offering Sales Agreement to $24.5 billion.
This total includes up to $2 billion authorized under its original prospectus, $2.5 billion under a prior supplement, and an additional $20 billion authorized under the newly filed supplement.
Prior to this update, BitMine reported that it had already completed sales under the program totaling roughly $4.5 billion, alongside a small additional issuance of $723 worth of stock.
