Ethereum is becoming the second-largest digital asset after Bitcoin that public companies are using to build corporate cryptocurrency reserves, according to Fixygen.
According to The Block’s Ethereum Treasury Tracker as of September 9–10, 2026, the nine publicly traded companies being monitored hold a total of approximately 7.63 million ETH on their balance sheets. The value of these reserves is estimated at approximately $19 billion.
BitMine Immersion Technologies emerged as the clear leader. The company announced on September 8 that it had increased its portfolio to 5.929 million ETH. In addition, BitMine holds 211 BTC, cash, and marketable securities totaling $593 million, as well as a number of other investments. The company estimates the total value of its cryptocurrency, cash, and marketable securities at $15.7 billion.
According to BitMine’s own estimates, the 5.93 million ETH it owns account for approximately 4.9% of the total Ethereum supply.
At the same time, the company has already staked approximately 5.067 million ETH. At the time of the announcement, BitMine valued these holdings at approximately $12.6 billion.
SharpLink ranks second among public corporate holders of Ethereum with 868,700 ETH worth approximately $2.15 billion, while Dynamix Corporation ranks third with 496,700 ETH worth approximately $1.24 billion.
Next are Bit Digital with 158,500 ETH, BTCS with 70,100 ETH, and Forum Markets with 69,800 ETH.
Thus, BitMine alone controls about 78% of all ETH held in specialized corporate Ethereum reserves tracked by The Block.
The emerging model resembles the strategy Strategy began implementing with Bitcoin several years ago, but there is a significant difference with Ethereum. A company can not only hold the digital asset in anticipation of its value increasing but also stake it to earn additional returns.
At the same time, this model carries additional risks—ranging from ETH volatility to fluctuations in staking yields and a potential discount on the company’s stock relative to the value of its Ethereum holdings.
As of September 10, ETH is trading at $2,470.

According to Fixygen, the value of cryptocurrencies held on the balance sheets of public companies has reached approximately $123 billion, with Bitcoin accounting for over 81% of corporate digital reserves.
According to The Block’s Corporate Crypto Treasury Tracker as of September 10, 2026, the database lists 119 public companies, of which 109 hold active cryptocurrency reserves. The total value of their digital assets is estimated at approximately $123 billion.
Bitcoin accounts for about $99.8 billion, or 81.1% of the total. Public companies that use Bitcoin as their primary digital reserve asset collectively control about 1.274 million BTC.
Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, remains the undisputed leader. As of September 7, the company held 845.05 thousand BTC. $63.73 billion was spent to acquire this amount, and the average purchase price was approximately $75,400 per Bitcoin. Strategy disclosed this information on September 8 in a Form 8-K filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
According to The Block’s current estimate, the value of Bitcoin on MicroStrategy’s balance sheet exceeds $66 billion. Thus, a single company accounts for approximately two-thirds of the value of corporate Bitcoin reserves tracked by the index.
Other major holders include Twenty One Capital with 43,514 thousand BTC, Japan’s Metaplanet with 43 thousand BTC, and mining company MARA with 35,303 thousand BTC. Another approximately 30 thousand BTC belongs to Cantor Equity Partners I, an entity linked to the upcoming BSTR deal.
The second-largest corporate cryptocurrency position after Strategy is no longer Bitcoin, but Ethereum. BitMine Immersion Technologies has accumulated nearly 5.93 million ETH worth approximately $14.7 billion.
The expansion of corporate crypto reserves means that digital assets are gradually transforming from a tool primarily used by private crypto investors into a separate line item on the balance sheets of public companies.
At the same time, the digital reserve strategy creates additional market risk. The stock prices of such companies are beginning to depend simultaneously on their core business, the value of the cryptocurrency they hold, capital-raising conditions, and the premium or discount to the value of crypto assets at which the stock market values the company.

The Ukrainian government has changed the procedure for verifying military registration documents when obtaining consular services abroad: men aged 18–60 are no longer required to specifically generate an electronic military registration document no earlier than 72 hours before visiting an embassy or consulate.
Now, to receive consular services, it is sufficient to present an electronic military registration document that is valid at the time of the visit to the diplomatic mission, according to the Consular Service Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine. The new rules are already being implemented by Ukrainian diplomatic missions abroad.
The electronic military registration document, or e-MRD, is generated via the “Reserve+” mobile app and is used by the consul to verify a citizen’s military registration data.
Previously, men aged 18 to 60 were required to present an e-VOD—generated no earlier than 72 hours before visiting a diplomatic mission—when applying for virtually any consular service. The 72-hour requirement has now been abolished. The main condition is that the document must remain valid, and the personal data it contains must be up to date.
In what cases may the consulate refuse service
A consular service may be denied if the e-VOD is invalid or if verification reveals that the data needs to be updated, if the applicant has not presented a valid document at all, or if the document lacks confirmation that the personal data is current.
However, the requirement to present a military registration document does not apply to all consular services.
An e-VOD is not required when applying for an identity certificate to return to Ukraine. An exception also applies when performing consular services for children of Ukrainian citizens if the other parent is a foreign national or a stateless person, as well as for applications from Ukrainians who are under arrest, detained, or imprisoned abroad.
What Should Ukrainians Do If They Cannot Log In to “Reserve+”?
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has also announced additional simplifications for citizens abroad who are unable to log in to “Reserve+.”
In the near future, they plan to allow these citizens to update their military registration data through Ukrainian embassies and consulates. By the end of 2026, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in cooperation with the Ministry of Defense, intends to introduce a mechanism for updating data through consular registration.
To do this, a citizen will need to register with the consulate if they have not already done so, or update their information at a diplomatic mission if they are already registered with the consulate.
A separate procedure is provided for Ukrainians who cannot update their information through “Reserve+” due to the lack of a taxpayer identification number. Such citizens may personally contact the nearest Ukrainian embassy or consulate to obtain a taxpayer identification number using the “e-Consul” system.
Thus, the changes do not eliminate the requirement for men aged 18–60 to have a valid military registration document for most consular services, but they significantly simplify the procedure: it is no longer necessary to regenerate the e-VOD specifically within 72 hours before each visit to the consulate.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs recommends checking “Reserve+” before your visit to ensure that your e-VOD is valid and that your personal information is up to date.
Official clarification from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine: procedure for verifying military registration documents at Ukrainian consulates and embassies abroad. A similar clarification has been published by Ukrainian embassies and consulates in other countries.

The Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra National Reserve held a ceremonial opening of the Far Caves for pilgrims and visitors.
According to a correspondent for the “Interfax-Ukraine” news agency, a prayer service for Ukraine was held at the Lavra on Tuesday morning, led by Metropolitan Epiphanius of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine (OCU) with the participation of Bishop Abraham, the abbot of the Holy Dormition Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra of the OCU.
Afterward, the caves will be open to pilgrims and visitors.
It is noted that for the first month, access will be limited to believers, and starting approximately August 15, it will be open to all visitors.
“Not much time has passed since we all together opened the Near Caves. Today we are opening the Far Caves. And this demonstrates that our efforts are systematic. It is very important that the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra be a place that is open to Ukrainian believers, for Ukrainian pilgrims—a place where Ukrainian prayers and the Ukrainian Spiritual Hymn are heard, and where people feel themselves to be part of Ukraine’s cultural, religious, and national traditions,” said Tetyana Berezhna, Deputy Prime Minister for Humanitarian Policy and Minister of Culture of Ukraine, at the opening ceremony.
The event was also attended by First Deputy Minister of Culture of Ukraine Ivan Verbytskyi, Director General of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra National Reserve Maksym Ostapenko, Oleksandr Alferov, Head of the Ukrainian Institute of National Remembrance (UINR); Mykyta Poturaiev, Chair of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Humanitarian and Information Policy (Servant of the People faction); People’s Deputy Mykola Knyazhitsky (“European Solidarity”); and representatives of the OCU, the Ministry of Culture, and the reserve.
The Far Caves are one of the oldest sacred sites of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra. Together with the Near Caves, they form a unique system of man-made underground labyrinths, where the Kyiv-Pechersk Monastery was founded in the mid-11th century. Initially, the caves served as dwellings and places of prayer for the monks, and later became an underground necropolis.
As reported, on March 29, 2023, the “Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra” National Reserve terminated its lease agreement with the Holy Dormition Monastery of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate). On the same day, the Kyiv Economic Court opened proceedings on a lawsuit filed by the Holy Dormition Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra of the UOC (MP) against the “Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra” Reserve regarding the unlawful termination of the lease agreement, while the UOC (MP) itself stated that it had no intention of vacating the Lavra until the conclusion of the court proceedings. On August 9, 2023, the court ruled that the termination of the agreement between the UOC (MP) monastery and the “Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra” National Reserve was lawful. Appeals proceedings are currently underway.
In August 2023, the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra National Reserve temporarily suspended access to the Lower Lavra grounds for all visitors.
In February 2026, the reserve reopened access to the Near Caves, and in June, regular prayer services resumed in the Near Caves of the Lavra.
Researchers at higher education institutions and scientific organizations can now apply for a mobilization deferment entirely online through the “Reserve+” app, according to the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
According to the ministry, the online deferment feature in “Reserve+” has been expanded to include researchers. Previously, online deferments were already available for certain categories of employees at institutions of higher, pre-higher vocational, and professional education.
To obtain a deferment online, the employee’s data must be up-to-date and correctly entered into the Unified State Electronic Database on Education (USEDE). Key requirements include a primary place of employment, employment of at least 0.75 FTE, eligibility for deferment based on a position in higher education or research, and holding a position included in the list of research positions.
The Ministry of Education and Science clarifies that the new category in “Reserve+” applies to scientific, scientific-pedagogical, and pedagogical staff at institutions of higher, pre-higher vocational, and professional education, as well as scientific institutions and organizations.
If the system does not confirm the right to deferment or issues a denial, the employee must contact their employer to verify and update the data in the Unified State Electronic Database on Military Service (USEDMS). The accuracy of the data in the database is crucial for the automatic confirmation of the right to deferment.
The expansion of online deferrals in “Reserve+” is part of the digitization of military registration and reduces the need for in-person visits to territorial recruitment centers. For research institutions and educational institutions, this also means greater responsibility for the timely and accurate entry of personnel data into the EDBO.
