币界网报道:Bit Digital, a Nasdaq-listed Bitcoin mining firm, has announced a $150 million investment in Ethereum, marking a strategic pivot toward the second-largest cryptocurrency. The company plans to acquire 18,000 ETH at approximately $2,506 per coin, leveraging its existing infrastructure to expand into Ethereum staking. CEO Bryan Bullett emphasized the move as a "natural extension" of the firm's operations, citing Ethereum's growing institutional adoption and the upcoming Dencun upgrade's potential to enhance scalability. The investment will be funded through a mix of cash reserves and potential debt financing, with staking rewards expected to generate additional yield. Bit Digital's shift reflects broader industry trends as Bitcoin miners diversify revenue streams amid post-halving profitability pressures. The company reported holding 167.3 BTC ($11.2 million) and 12,660 ETH ($38 million) as of March 31, alongside its core mining operations producing 125.9 BTC last quarter.
