SharpLink Gaming Boosts Ethereum Treasury, SBET Stock Down

SharpLink Gaming remains one of the largest corporate owners of ETH. Its Ethereum treasury is now just under 729,000 ETH. Its growth comes weeks after the start of its Ethereum-based treasury plan on June 2, 2025, which made ETH the main reserve currency of the company.

SharpLink Gaming Raised $2.6 Billion To Accumulate More Ethereum

According to a Q2 2025 report issued by SharpLink Gaming, it expanded its ETH treasury with a vigorous fundraise campaign worth more than $2.6 billion. Proceeds from PIPE and Registered Direct offerings, were directed at purchasing the ETH.

Since the strategy launch, SharpLink‘s “ETH Concentration” (a new metric showing ETH held per 1,000 assumed diluted shares) has nearly doubled. It has shifted from 2.00 to 3.95, which portrays the firm’s sharp accumulation rate.

In the last seven days alone, SharpLink Gaming has raised an additional $900 million to fuel its Ethereum purchases. The investment fits in with an expansive increase in institutional demand of Ethereum.

U.S.-listed Ethereum ETFs purchased $1 billion worth of ETH as the asset‘s price approached an all-time high. The company’s nearly 100% staking of its ETH holdings has already generated 1,326 ETH in rewards, creating a steady yield without liquidating any assets.

SBET Shares Dip Despite Ethereum Treasury Expansion

Shares of SharpLink Gaming stock (SBET) closed at $21.25, down 9.45% after the earnings release. The stock decline suggests that investors weighed the companys reported Q2 net loss of $103.4 million. In the short run, this net loss has pulled down SBET shares but the stock price has increased by 176.76% year-to-date and 127.08% in one year.

The recorded Q2 2025 revenue was $0.7 million compared to the $1.0 million recorded in the Q2 2024. This includes gross profit of $0.2 million which is 30% of the gross. In the first half of 2025, the sales amounted to $1.4 million as opposed to $2.0 million the previous year.

This was principally because of an $87.8 million write-down in accounting for liquid staked ETH and a $16.4 million share-based payments to the Consensys advisory. SharpLink Gaming formed a strategic alliance with this firm, which is the biggest Ethereum software company.

New Leadership Enhances SharpLinks Long-Term Ethereum Growth Strategy

Shifts in governance is proof of SharpLinks continued interest in growing its ETH treasury. Joseph Lubin, co-founder of Ethereum, joined as Chairman of the Board.

Also, Joseph Chalom, who most recently held the position of digital assets head at BlackRock, became Co-CEO. SharpLink Gamings focus remains on Ethereum as of now while staking yields and price appreciation of its ETH assets present long-term upside.
