FG Nexus Competes with Bitmine Immersion Technologies
FG Nexus is gaining ground in the corporate Ethereum treasury race. However, it still trails Bitmine Immersion Technologies (BMNR).

Stock Performance and Market Sentiment
Despite recent gains, FGNX shares are down 68% this year. They have fallen 71% over the past 12 months. Retail investor sentiment seems to be improving. Bitmine, led by Tom Lee, also saw a 2% pre-market gain. Bitmine’s Ethereum accumulation strategy continues to attract attention. The competition for ETH dominance among public firms remains strong.
