BREAKING: BTCS Disrupts Traditional Payouts with $0.05 ETH Dividend to Shareholders
In a bold move blending legacy finance with crypto innovation, BTCS just rewrote the dividend playbook—paying shareholders in Ethereum instead of fiat.
The ETH Dividend Experiment
Forget paper checks or wire transfers. Shareholders now get their $0.05 per share payout straight in ETH—a first for publicly traded companies. Cue the institutional FOMO.
Why It Matters
This isn’t just a gimmick. It’s a hedge against dollar debasement wrapped in a corporate action—and a slick way to onboard Wall Street to crypto. Even the suits can’t ignore ETH’s 400% run since 2023.
The Fine Print
Tax departments are scrambling. Liquidity? That’s the shareholder’s problem now. But hey—at least it’s not another stock buyback juicing executive bonuses.
One small step for BTCS, one giant middle finger to the SEC’s 'dividends must be cash' mentality. The future’s here—whether traditional finance likes it or not.
BTCS To Pay Dividend to Investors in Ethereum

This is a first-of-a-kind offering where a publicly-listed company is offering dividends in the Ethereum cryptocurrency. BTCS is a leading Bitcoin mining firm in the US, listed on the Nasdaq Composite index. Its price is currently at the $4.4 level on Monday and has surged 235% in a year. It has tripled investors’ money in a year and is among the top-performing stocks year-to-date.

The dividend in Ethereum from BTCS will be a big boost to both the stock and the broader cryptocurrency market. Ethereum is currently moving around the $4,275 price range and dipped in value after hitting $4,500 on Sunday. The bullish news from BTCS could boost ETH and make its price enter the greener side of the market’s spectrum.
