FG Nexus Makes $200M Ether Power Grab—Aims for 10% Dominance in Ethereum Network
Wall Street meets crypto in a bold play that’s either genius or recklessness—depending on which hedge fund manager you ask.
FG Nexus just dropped $200 million into Ether, signaling an aggressive bid to control a 10% stake in Ethereum’s network. No slow-and-steady DCA here—this is a full-throttle bet on ETH’s infrastructure future.
Why the land grab? Some speculate it’s about governance influence. Others whisper about yield farming strategies so complex they’d give a quant nightmares. Either way, traditional finance is watching—when they’re not busy shorting their own clients.
The move could trigger a domino effect. Institutional FOMO meets decentralized ethos, with Ethereum’s price as the battleground. Will other whales follow, or is FG Nexus about to learn why crypto markets eat overleveraged suits for breakfast?

The MOVE comes as ETH rallied $4,310 on Monday as it sets up to challenge its record high, it has risen by 47% over the past month.
FG Nexus plans to enhance this yield through staking and restaking, positioning itself as a gateway into Ethereum-powered finance, including tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) and stablecoin yield opportunities.
“We plan to become a significant player in the ethereum network with a goal of a 10% stake in ETH.” CEO and Chairman Kyle Cerminara said in a press release.
The company’s ETH holdings are held in secure custody with Anchorage Digital, which also facilitates seamless trading.
Anchorage Digital’s co-founder and CEO Nathan McCauley praised the move, calling the strategy a “bold, long-term bet” on ETH as the backbone of tomorrow’s financial system.
