Yeah, so I completely agree with you.
I very much think that they are in pole position to be that economic advocate for ETH, the asset.
That said, it does put them in this kind of uncomfortable governance position where now they have disproportionate power over the network.
A lot of Ethereum story is that it's credibly neutral, is that it's, you know, whatever, World War III resistant, blah, blah, blah.
If you have one public company

And I think it's also possible that Bitmine, if they get into that position, let's say that they start to own a third of the overall stage supply of ETH, right?
One can imagine that maybe, okay, we're going to move some of that ETH into DeFi to get yield instead of putting it into staking.
Maybe instead we're also going to move it into other stakers instead of the staker that we own.
We're going to move some of it into Lido and whatever so that we're not actually directly in control.

And the governance over those are done by third parties or somebody else entirely that has some kind of nonprofit type structure around it.
And we pledge our ETH there, and we don't have corporate governance control over it.
Therefore, we are not in control of ETH.
I think this is a problem that if they get to strategy levels of success...
