• SharpLink received 5,000 ETH from FalconX on June 25, according to on-chain data.
• The transfer is its first reported Ether purchase since October 2025, when it acquired 19,270 ETH worth $78.3 million.
• SharpLink remains the world’s second-largest public ETH treasury company, behind Bitmine Immersion.

SharpLink Expands Ethereum Treasury

Ethereum treasury company SharpLink received 5,000 ETH from crypto prime broker FalconX at 18:09:47 UTC on June 25. If confirmed, the transaction would mark the company’s first Ether purchase since October 2025, when it acquired 19,270 ETH valued at approximately $78.3 million.

As of June 21, SharpLink disclosed holdings of 876,285 ETH worth roughly $1.3 billion on its website. If the latest transfer represents a treasury acquisition, its holdings would increase to about 881,285 ETH. Average acquisition cost at $3,609 per ETH, implying an unrealized loss of around $1.79 billion based on current market prices.

SharpLink continues to rank as the world’s second-largest public Ethereum treasury company, behind Bitmine Immersion, which held 5.67 million ETH worth approximately $8.7 billion as of June 14.

The latest transfer comes months after SharpLink rebranded from SharpLink Gaming in February as it expanded beyond traditional Ethereum staking into broader on-chain yield strategies. The company also reported strong business growth, with first-quarter 2026 revenue rising to $12.1 million from $742,000 in the same period a year earlier.

While the company has yet to confirm whether the 5,000 ETH transfer represents a new treasury purchase, the on-chain movement suggests SharpLink may be resuming Ether accumulation after an eight-month pause.

The latest treasury activity also follows the June 22 launch of Ethlabs, an independent Ethereum research and development nonprofit backed by SharpLink, Bitmine Immersion Technologies, Ethereum co-founder Joe Lubin, and other ecosystem participants. Founded by former Ethereum Foundation researchers, the initiative aims to advance Ethereum’s infrastructure and support broader institutional adoption.
