The accompanying post about Ethereum's relevance as a key L1 in an AI-driven future contrasts with the image, which focuses entirely on Bitcoin's investment case during a deleveraging period, highlighting how the two leading cryptocurrencies face different narratives—Ethereum viewed as infrastructure for emerging AI/robotics use cases versus Bitcoin framed as a monetary alternative and portfolio diversifier amid macro-driven liquidation events. > > "1/ Crypto more relevant today given the rapidly increasing capabilities of AI and robotics. Agree with @BlackRock take to see growing use cases. In our view, @ethereum $ETH will be the most important L1 tickers: $BMNR $BMNP" ### Post #2 by @therollupco > **Author:** The Rollup ([@therollupco](https://x.com/therollupco)) > **Metrics:** 22 likes · 6 retweets · 2 comments · 14.8K views > **Posted:** 2026-08-18T17:27:20+00:00 > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/therollupco/status/2089766108689842327](https://x.com/therollupco/status/2089766108689842327) > **Video Content:** [video-unavailable: could not fetch or sample] > > "LIVE: Bitcoin UP, Stocks DOWN!

Over the past week, $18.9M in $ETH and $30.8M of its own BMNR. That pushes Bitmine's holdings past 4.81% of the entire $ETH supply. They've never once stopped stacking.
