Companies buy more than 1 million ETH and strengthen treasuries
- Companies Expand Ethereum Treasuries with Billion-Dollar Purchases
- SharpLink Gaming invests heavily in ETH with active staking
- Institutional accumulation may influence future Ethereum price
Since July 10, wallets associated with large investors and institutional entities have acquired more than 1,03 million Ethereum (ETH), valued at approximately $4,16 billion. This movement occurred in parallel with the appreciation of ETH, which jumped from $2.600 to $4.000, establishing an average purchase price of around $3.546.
Experts indicate that the buying pattern suggests strategies aimed at building long-term reserves, rather than short-term speculative operations. The movement points to strategic positioning in the face of potential future events that could impact demand for the cryptocurrency.
A standout in this scenario is SharpLink Gaming, led by Joe Lubin, co-founder of Ethereum. In just two months, the company built a portfolio of nearly $2 billion in ETH, partially funded by $540 million raised from share sales. All of the tokens were allocated to staking, generating over $3,4 million in rewards since June.
Analysts believe this accumulation period could precede important market milestones, such as the potential approval of spot ETH ETFs and the expansion of staking by traditional financial institutions. If the buying trend continues, the growing volume of Ethereum in corporate treasuries could directly influence the asset's performance in future market cycles.
The increase in institutional interest reinforces the perception that Ethereum is increasingly being considered a strategic asset, capable of forming part of long-term portfolios with the potential to generate returns not only through appreciation, but also through the rewards obtained through staking processes.

In the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, SoftBank reported a net loss of $7.1 billion, primarily due to a $3.7 billion impairment charge from a $9.5 billion advance payment for power generation equipment for US data centers—of which about $2.9 billion was non-refundable and effectively lost. The CFO admitted that SoftBank placed orders before the project plan was finalized, and is now conducting a comprehensive review of its procurement strategy. "The most aggressive purchaser of gas turbines has now written off the deposit in this way."
