SharpLink Gaming secured $200 million in funding from four global institutional investors through a registered direct offering, the company announced today.

“SharpLink is proud to be joined by globally-recognized institutional investors, augmenting our strong existing investor base and further validating our mission to be the world’s leading ETH treasury,” said Joseph Chalom, SharpLink’s Co-Chief Executive Officer, in a statement.

A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners is serving as the lead placement agent, with Société Générale as a co-placement agent. Cantor is acting as a financial advisor to the company.

The offering, made under an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR, is expected to close around August 8, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.

SharpLink will allocate the net proceeds to its Ethereum (ETH) treasury. The Nasdaq-listed company recently acquired 83,561 ETH for approximately $304 million, raising its total holdings to 521,939 ETH, valued at over $1.9 billion, according to a regulatory disclosure .

SharpLink is on track to surpass $2 billion in ETH holdings following the raise, reinforcing its rank as the second-largest corporate holder after BitMine.
