SharpLink Gaming Doubles Down: Ethereum Treasury Balloons to 188,478 ETH

SharpLink Gaming just made a power play—loading their war chest with a staggering 188,478 ETH. That’s not just a bet on gaming’s future; it’s a full-scale assault on traditional finance’s 'play-it-safe' rulebook.

Why Ethereum? Because even in a bear market, blue-chip crypto acts like a blockchain bulldozer—crushing doubts and stacking opportunities. While Wall Street hedges with bonds, SharpLink’s all-in move screams conviction.

One cynical footnote? At least they didn’t park it in a bank earning 0.01% APR.

SharpLink Gaming Buys 12,207 ETH

In a press release on June 24, SharpLink Gaming disclosed an additional 12,207 ETH for $30,674,829 at an average price of $2,513 per ETH between June 16-25, 2025

In addition, SharpLink Gaming also raised $27.7 million by selling 2,547,180 shares of the company’s common stock. The company claimed to use the proceeds from these sales to further boost its ETH treasury holdings.

Increasing SharpLink’s ETH holdings underscores our forward-thinking approach to creating long-term value for our stockholders, said Joseph Lubin, chairman of the board of SharpLink. He added “This MOVE reflects our confidence in Ethereum’s utility and our commitment to exploring transformative technologies that can unlock new value for our business and stockholders, alike.”

On June 16, SharpLink Gaming made its first acquisition of 176,271 ETH valued at $462.9 million. The company confirmed the move reflects its decision to adopt ETH as its primary reserve asset.

The company has generated 120 ETH rewards since launching its ETH-focused treasury strategy on June 2. SharpLink has achieved ETH per share growth of 18.97% until now.

SBET stock price has jumped 12% to $10.10 on Tuesday, as per Yahoo Finance. Experts believe the company stock may rise similar to other companies that added crypto to their corporate treasury.
