BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) has been experiencing sideways movement in its price for nearly a month. However, recent developments hint that this could be a turning point for the company.
A notable purchase of over 50,900 ETH has sparked new interest, potentially signaling a shift in BMNR’s price and Ethereum’s (ETH) future.
BitMine’s Bold ETH Purchase: A Strategic Move for March
On March 2, BitMine made a significant acquisition, purchasing 50,9928 ETH, bringing its total holdings to 3.71% of all Ethereum supply. This is just 1.29% short of the company’s target of holding 5% of Ethereum’s supply.
Despite Ethereum’s price being in the red at the time of the purchase, BitMine’s Chairman Tom Lee believes that March will be a pivotal month for Ethereum and the broader crypto market.
“We understand war headlines make investors nervous, but we expect stocks to be up in March: – led by MAG7, software IGV and crypto $BTC $ETH (sic),” Lee stated.
CMF Indicator Shows Potential Bullish Momentum
The Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) has shown an uptick, signaling that investor support for BMNR may be growing. While the CMF is still below zero, the rising trend indicates that outflows are declining, which is a positive sign for the company. A move into the positive territory by the CMF could confirm that BMNR holders are supporting the price, further fueling optimism about a potential price reversal.
This uptick suggests that investor confidence is strengthening and could signal an incoming period of inflows. If the CMF crosses into the positive zone, it would provide confirmation that the market sentiment is shifting in favor of BMNR.

Bullish Divergence Amidst Geopolitical Challenges
The Money Flow Index (MFI) is showing a bullish divergence since the beginning of the year. The indicator has been forming lower highs, while BMNR’s price has seen lower lows, signaling a decrease in selling pressure. Despite the ongoing geopolitical instability in 2026, which has added volatility to global markets, the MFI suggests that BMNR is on track for a potential recovery.
Although external factors like geopolitical unrest have impacted BMNR’s price, the bullish divergence in the MFI suggests that the selling pressure is waning. This reduction in selling pressure could lead to a price rebound for BMNR in the near future.
Is BMNR Price Breaking Up With ETH?
Currently, BMNR is trading at $20.40, sitting just above the $19.06 support level. Maintaining this support is vital for BMNR to eventually break out above the $22.34 resistance. If BMNR stays above the $19.06 support, it may have the potential to rally in the coming weeks.
Interestingly, the correlation between BMNR and Ethereum has been decreasing, with the correlation currently at 0.36. This suggests that BMNR is less likely to follow Ethereum’s price movements, which is a positive sign. Ethereum has been in a period of consolidation, allowing BMNR more room to move independently and potentially rally.
However, there is a risk if BMNR holders panic due to ongoing geopolitical events. If the $19.06 support is lost, BMNR could see a drop toward the next major support at $15.45. This would invalidate the current bullish outlook and require careful monitoring of market conditions.
