Shares of Bitmine Immersion Technologies (BMNR), the ether

treasury strategy firm helmed by Fundstrat’s Thomas Lee, slid 20% Thursday, extending a 40% drop from the previous day, as the company disclosed plans to raise up to $2 billion through a stock sale agreement.

The selloff comes on the heels of Bitmine closing a $250 million funding round and securing an at-the-market

stock offering deal with Cantor Fitzgerald and ThinkEquity, according to aWednesday SEC filing. Cantor will act as the lead agent, selling shares directly into the market over time at the company’s discretion.

The decline follows a parabolic run for Bitmine, which had surged 3,000% after announcing an Ethereum-focused treasury strategy and naming Fundstrat’s Tom Lee as chairman of the board.

BMNR is down 65% since the report.
