BitMine Immersion Technologies will cap its Ether holdings at 5% of the cryptocurrency’s supply, according to Chairman Tom Lee.

Speaking during a keynote at Token2049 in Singapore on Wednesday, Lee said BitMine is nearing the threshold after accumulating roughly 6 million Ether, equivalent to about 4.9% of the supply.

He said the company needs about 100,000 ETH more to reach its target.

We’re not gonna be accumulating past 5%,” Lee said.

“We’re not gonna own more than 5% of Ethereum.” Lee had previously left open the possibility of accumulating more than 5% of Ether’s supply depending on Ethereum adoption.

In an August interview with Bankless, he said the company may revisit that possibility in 2027.
